Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- 3-4 pounds beef short ribs (good quality English cut)
- ½ cup soy sauce
- 1/2 cup water
- ¼ cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- ¼ cup rice wine (or Mirin)
- ¼ cup about 1/2 of a medium Korean/Asian pear grated
- ¼ cup about 1/2 of a medium onion grated
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon minced ginger
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- 1
Rinse the ribs and drain water. Trim excess fat. Butterfly the short ribs so the meat is 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick. (See below for the instructions.)
- 2
Mix all marinade ingredients well. Marinate the meat for at least 6 hours (overnight for best results). The thicker the meat the longer you'll want to marinate.

It's best to grill over charcoal or wood charcoal (sootbul), but a gas grill works well too. Grill over medium high to high heat, turning only once, 2 - 3 minutes on each side. Make sure to preheat the grill for nice grill marks.
