Instructions

Step 1: In a large bowl, whisk 3 tbsp gochujang, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tbsp brown sugar, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tbsp grated ginger, 2 tsp sesame oil, and 2 tbsp chopped green onions until the sugar dissolves.
Step 2: Add 2 lbs flanken-cut beef short ribs to the marinade, coating all surfaces well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
Step 3: Preheat a gas grill to medium-high heat, about 425°F, and oil the grates lightly.
Step 4: Remove the ribs from marinade, shaking off excess, and arrange crosswise over the grill grates.
Step 5: Grill for 3-4 minutes per side, turning once, until the edges are caramelized and the beef is cooked to medium-rare or desired doneness.
Step 6: Transfer to a platter, sprinkle 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds and additional chopped green onions if desired, and serve immediately.
