Servings: 4

Cooking Time: 10 minutes

Time to Marinate: Eight hours at least

Ingredients:

1 cup (250 ml) soy sauce

1 cup (250 ml) Brewhall Azedo Tropical Fruit Sour (sour beer)

1 cup (250 ml) brown sugar

1/3 cup (80 ml) rice wine vinegar

1/3 cup (80 ml) lime juice

1/4 tsp (1 ml) sesame oil

1 tbsp (15 ml) minced garlic

1 tbsp (15 ml) grated ginger

3 lb (1.4 kg) crosscut beef short ribs, a.k.a. Maui or kalbi ribs

1 bunch green onions, sliced

2 tbsp (30 ml) toasted white sesame seeds

Instructions:

Combine soy sauce, sour beer, vinegar, lime juice, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger in a mixing bowl. Place the beef ribs in an extra-large freezer bag, or a bowl, and pour over the marinade, ensuring all the ribs are coated. Marinate for at least eight hours, and up to two days, in the fridge.

To cook, set a grill pan or BBQ to high heat. Sear the ribs for three to four minutes per side. The sugar in the marinade can scorch so keep an eye on the ribs while you’re cooking them. To serve, place the ribs on a platter and garnish with the sliced green onion and sesame seeds.
