Instructions

Step 1: In a large bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup soy sauce, 3 tbsp brown sugar, 5 minced garlic cloves, 1 tbsp grated ginger, 2 tbsp sesame oil, 1 tsp black pepper, and 4 thinly sliced scallions to create the marinade.
Step 2: Add 2 lbs flanken-cut beef short ribs to the marinade, turning to coat well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best flavor.
Step 3: Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Remove ribs from marinade and grill for 3-4 minutes per side, until nicely charred and cooked to desired doneness.
Step 4: Transfer ribs to a platter, sprinkle with 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds and additional sliced scallions. Serve hot with steamed rice or lettuce wraps.
