Directions
Make the Marinade
In a blender or food processor, combine garlic, ginger, Asian pear, and green onion. Add soy sauce, sesame oil, water, and brown sugar. Blend until smooth.
Marinate the Ribs
Place short ribs in a large bowl or zip-top bag. Pour marinade over the ribs, making sure all pieces are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for 24 hours, turning once or twice if possible.
Grill the Ribs
Preheat your grill to medium-high. Remove ribs from marinade and let excess drip off. Grill for 2 minutes per side, or until nicely caramelized and cooked through.
Prepare and Grill the Veggie Skewers
Thread the veggies onto skewers, alternating for color. Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the skewers for 3–4 minutes per side, or until charred and tender.
Serve
Plate the sizzling Korean short ribs with the charred veggie skewers. Pair with classic Memorial Day sides like potato salad, coleslaw, or grilled corn.
