Categories     main-dish

Time 3h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

5 pounds beef short ribs, cut into 4-ounce portions
1 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
3 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
1 (5-inch) stalk lemongrass, halved and smashed
1 tablespoon peeled and minced ginger
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1 quart water
1/2 cup sliced green onion bottoms, white part only
3/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Jasmine Rice, for serving
2 teaspoons finely grated orange rind, for serving
Sliced green onion tops, optional for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a wide stockpot or Dutch oven, combine the short ribs, soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, lemongrass, ginger, brown sugar, water, green onion bottoms, crushed red pepper, and 2 tablespoons of the orange juice. Make sure that the stockpot is deep enough so that the short ribs are submerged in the liquid.
  • Bake the short ribs, covered, for about 3 hours, or until the meat is tender and falling off the bones. Remove the short ribs from the braising liquid and cover to keep warm. Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F.
  • Drain the fat off of the cooking liquid and discard. Place the remaining braising juices in a medium saucepan with 1/4 cup of the hoisin sauce and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the liquid until only about 1 1/4 cups remain. Strain through a fine-meshed strainer, discarding the solids. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of orange juice and the lemon juice.
  • Return the short ribs and the reduced sauce to the stockpot or Dutch oven, coating the short ribs well with the sauce. Bake for 10 minutes, until the short ribs are heated through and slightly glazed. Serve hot over jasmine rice. Season each portion with the orange zest and garnish with the green onions if desired.

Categories     Main Course

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 pounds baby back ribs (about 2 slabs)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 Tablespoon dry mustard
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 Tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
1/3 cup soy sauce
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon sriracha
1 Tablespoon cornstarch
1 Tablespoon water
1/2 Tablespoon sesame seeds
2 green onions (diced)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 275 degrees.
  • Remove the membrane from the ribs (if desired), then rinse the ribs under cold water and pat dry.
  • In a small bowl, mix together brown sugar, dry mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Massage into ribs.
  • Place ribs on a foil-lined baking sheet, then cover them with another piece of foil.
  • Bake ribs for 2 - 2 1/2 hours (check at 2 hours to see if they're done, continue cooking if they're not).
  • While the ribs finish up cooking, in a saucepan over medium heat, add honey, brown sugar, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and sriracha. Bring mixture to a boil, then turn down heat.
  • In a small bowl, mix together cornstarch and water, then add to the mixture and simmer for 5 minutes or until the sauce starts to thicken.
  • Remove ribs from the oven and turn the temperature to broil. Brush ribs generously with sauce, then broil for 2-4 minutes (be sure to watch them closely so they don't burn).
  • Top with sesame seeds and green onions.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use high-quality short ribs. Look for ribs that are well-marbled with fat, as this will help them stay moist during cooking.
  • Be sure to brown the ribs well before braising them. This will help to develop their flavor and color.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in your braising liquid. This will add flavor and nutrition to the dish.
  • Cook the ribs until they are fall-off-the-bone tender. This will typically take about 2-3 hours.
  • Serve the ribs with your favorite sides, such as rice, noodles, or mashed potatoes.

Conclusion:

Sweet Asian short ribs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are also a great way to use up leftover short ribs. With their sweet and savory flavor, these ribs are sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
