Korean BBQ Ribs have become incredibly popular in recent years, and for good reason. These ribs are marinated in a flavorful blend of soy sauce, sugar, garlic, and other seasonings, then grilled to perfection. The result is a mouthwatering dish that is sure to satisfy your cravings. Korean-style short ribs are cut across the bone, which makes them easy to grill and eat. They are also known as 'flanken' or 'galbi' in Korean. These ribs are often served with steamed rice, kimchi, and other Korean side dishes.

Instructions

1.	In a mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sugar, black pepper, garlic, green onions, sesame oil, and sesame seeds.
2.	Place the ribs in a large ziplock bag and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
3.	Heat up the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the ribs from the bag and discard the marinade.
4.	Grill the ribs for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until nicely charred and cooked through.

PROS

These Korean BBQ Ribs are tender, juicy, and packed with flavor.
They are perfect for a summer barbecue or a casual weeknight dinner.

CONS

These ribs are high in sodium and sugar, which makes them an occasional treat rather than an everyday meal.
The cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the ribs.

HEALTH & BENEFITS

While these ribs are not the healthiest meal option, they can still provide some benefits. Beef is a good source of protein, iron, and zinc, while garlic has been linked to reducing blood pressure and improving cholesterol levels. However, it’s important to consume these ribs in moderation and balance them with a variety of vegetables and whole grains.
