Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by rinsing the beef short ribs under cold water, then pat them dry with paper towels.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, hoisin sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, sesame oil, chili paste, and black pepper.
  3. Pour the marinade over the prepared short ribs in a resealable bag or bowl, ensuring each piece is thoroughly coated.
  4. When you’re ready to roast, preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
  5. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the marinated short ribs for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they develop a rich, brown crust.
  6. Carefully place the seared beef short ribs into a heavy-duty roasting pan.
  7. Cover the roasting pan tightly with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven and roast for 3 to 4 hours.
  8. In the final 30 minutes of roasting, remove the foil to allow the ribs to caramelize.
  9. After the roasting time, check that the beef easily pulls apart with a fork.
  10. Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for 10-15 minutes before serving.
  11. Garnish with sliced green onions and sprinkle sesame seeds on top before plating.
