Kai Bi Korean Style Grilled Short Ribs Recipes

KOREAN BBQ SHORT RIBS (GAL-BI)

Steps:

• Pour soy sauce, water, and vinegar into a large, non-metallic bowl. Whisk in brown sugar, white sugar, pepper, sesame oil, garlic, and onion until the sugars have dissolved. Submerge the ribs in this marinade, and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate 7 to 12 hours; the longer, the better.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.
• Remove ribs from the marinade, shake off excess, and discard the marinade. Cook on preheated grill until the meat is no longer pink, 5 to 7 minutes per side.

KAI BI (KOREAN STYLE GRILLED SHORT RIBS)

Steps:

• MARINADE.
• Chop onion, pear or apple, and ginger into small pieces and place in blender with garlic and just enough water to blend into a smooth pourable paste. Pour into medium mixing bowl.
• Slice green onion and add to bowl.
• Add all other ingredients. Mix well and let stand for at least fifteen minutes.
• If too thick, add equal parts soy sauce and water until reach desired consistency.
• PREPARE MEAT.
• Very lightly salt meat on both sides and let sit 10 minutes.
• Place meat into a bowl, pour in enough marinade to just cover the meat and mix well. Refrigerate for 6 to 24 hours.
• GRILL MEAT.
• Remove meat from refrigerator and let set at room temperature for 20 minutes.
• Heat grill to high heat.
• Cook until browned then turn and cook until browned on the other side, about 2 minutes per side.
• NOTE:.
• If you can't get the butcher to butterfly the ribs, you can do it yourself. Separate the ribs, then slice into the meaty side at the center of the rib section, stopping just before cutting through the membrane. Turn your knife 90º (flat to the bone) right and carefully slice the meat at roughly 1/8 inch thickness outward until just short of slicing through, roll the loosened flap of meat away from the knife, and continue slicing until again just short of slicing through. Repeat until you reach the "end" of the meat. Do the same for the left side and repeat this with each rib section.

KOREAN BBQ SHORT RIBS (YANGNYEOM GALBI)

Steps:

• Marinade: Peel pear, cut into pieces, and place into food processor (discard the core). Smash garlic cloves; trim root end, remove peel, and add to the food processor. Trim any dry patches off ginger knob; then use a spoon to scrape off the skin. Roughly slice (to about the same size as the garlic) and place in the food processor. Pulse to finely chop, about 20 seconds. Add sugar, mirin, soy sauce, and sake, and pulse several times to finish the marinade. Set aside.
• Short ribs: Cut short rib slices into 2-inch pieces, making sure a bone is in each piece. Pour enough marinade into a baking dish to cover the bottom. Spread the sliced short ribs on the marinade; then pour remaining marinade on top to cover. Cover the surface of the ribs with plastic wrap and refrigerate, 12-24 hours.
• Remove marinade from short ribs by draining them in a colander; discard marinade. Heat skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil in a thin, even layer. When the skillet is smoking, add short ribs, one piece at a time, in an even layer. (Cook in batches to avoid overcrowding.) Cook undisturbed until brown and caramelized on one side, 2 minutes. Flip over and cook another 1-2 minutes to brown and caramelize. (Note: To cook galbi on a grill, oil the grill grate, preheat to medium-high, and cook for 2 minutes per side.)
• Remove beef to a serving platter. Wipe the pan clean with a paper towel and repeat with remaining oil and beef. Garnish beef with scallions. Serve with white rice or with lettuce leaves to wrap.
