So here we have it. Quite possibly the best Sticky Ginger Beef Short Ribs. And I mean it!
These babies might take a little bit of patience.
But once they're marinated in that delicious soy, brown sugar and ginger sauce, seared to produce a gorgeously brown crust and braised until the meat falls right off the bone, I tell ya what.
It's so worth a coupla hour wait.
Korean Style Sticky Ginger Beef Short Ribs Recipe (aka Kalbi)
The aroma these Sticky Ginger Beef Short Ribs produces while slow cooking is reason enough to make them.
But of course, once you've smelled THAT SMELL for 2 or 3 hours, you're going to devour every last rib.
Like, you'll be licking each one of your fingers AND the plate to get every last bit of that beefy ginger goodness.
No lies, my friends. You won't be able to resist all-a-dat meat and sauce.
And if you put an egg on it, you guys, I am surely not going to judge.
Because let's face it, almost everything is better with a fried egg with a runny yolk on top because it's basically insta-sauce. So yeah, I highly encourage the egg.
Oh! But don't forget to pair the beef with the most delicious Coconut Jasmine Rice around.
Yes, I eat this rice alllll day long and feel no shame for it. You'll totally understand when you try it.
Apparently I don't have much to say tonight other than that I love these ribs {and the rice}.
Sometimes it's just all about the food, friends.
Okay, who am I kidding? It's ALWAYS all about the food.
