Kalbi

Ingredients (4 servings)

4 Ib. beef ribs
Roasted sesame oil
9 tbsp finely chopped green onion
vegetables ( onion, green pepper, sliced carrots, mushrooms)

For marinade ( 4 cups )
1/2 can of coke
1 oz ginger root, thinly sliced
1 oz garlic, thinly sliced
2 cups soy sauce
1/2 cup cooking wine (or mild rice vinegar)
6 oz sugar
1/2 tbsp. MSG


Methods

  1. Cut spareribs into serving pieces, remove excess fat from the meat carefully.  (When buying at grocery, you can request butcher to cut beef ribs into 1 inch pieces too.)
  2. With meaty side down, insert knife under bone and slice, leaving the end uncut.
  3. Open out flat and slice the meat into half thickness, leaving the end uncut and open out flat.
  4. Make a slit along the center of each bone. This eases the membrane when grilled and makes the meat split apart easily.
  5. Marinate and mix with seasonings and vegetables and let it stand for 2 hours or more. 
  6. Broil both sides on preheated grill.
