Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, mirin, sugar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and black pepper. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Ribs

    Add the beef short ribs to the marinade, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  4. 4

    Grill the Ribs

    Remove the ribs from the marinade and let excess marinade drip off. Grill the ribs for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are nicely charred and cooked to your desired doneness.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Once done, remove the ribs from the grill. Sprinkle with chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds before serving.
