Ingredients

• 4 pounds beef short ribs
• 1 cup soy sauce
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 6 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons ginger, grated
• 4 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare the Short Ribs: Begin by preheating your oven to 300°F (150°C). Pat the beef short ribs dry with paper towels and season them with black pepper. This simple step helps to lock in flavor during roasting.
2. Make the Marinade: In a large bowl, combine the soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, and rice vinegar. Whisk them together until you achieve a deliciously sticky glaze.
3. Marinate the Ribs: Place the short ribs into a deep baking dish and pour the marinade over the top. Make sure to coat all sides. For the best results, cover and let them marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes—though overnight is even better!
4. Roast in the Oven: Once marinated, cover the dish with foil and place it in the preheated oven. Roast for approximately 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the meat is fork-tender.
5. Create the Glaze: Towards the end of the roasting, remove the foil and increase the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C). Bake for another 15-20 minutes, basting occasionally with the marinade to get that glorious sticky finish.
6. Serve and Garnish: Carefully remove from the oven and let the ribs rest for a few minutes. Top with sliced green onions and sprinkle with sesame seeds for that extra touch.

Top Tips for Perfecting Sticky Asian Slow-Roasted Beef Short Ribs

• Substitutions: If you’re looking to switch things up, coconut aminos can be a great soy sauce substitute if you need a gluten-free option. Additionally, local honey adds a unique twist and supports local businesses.
• Timing is Key: Don’t rush the cooking! Slow-roasting is what makes these ribs tender and flavorful.
• Common Mistakes to Avoid: Avoid reducing the marinade too much before cooking, as it provides essential moisture during the slow roast.

Storing and Reheating Tips

Leftover Sticky Asian Slow-Roasted Beef Short Ribs are a delicious treat on their own! Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze them for up to 3 months. When it’s time to enjoy them again, reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 15-20 minutes. This way, they’ll regain their incredible flavor and tender texture—just like the first time!
