Korean Short Ribs (Galbi) is my recipe of the day with the blogging group Eat the World. We gather on the tenth day of the month at ten a.m. to share a recipe from a different country that we haven’t “been to yet”. This month we’re off to Korea.

For my selection I am sharing Korean short ribs (Galbi) which are marinated thin Flanken ribs that are grilled. I enjoy making these often when I come across the meat at the market.

You can buy the meat with the little oval bones or not. I prefer without since it can be tedious chewing around those. The bones also increase the grilling time as well. You probably would like to keep them less done so as not to become tough. Especially if you are using a chuck version of short rib.

I like serving these with rice, and lettuce leaves with either ssamjang paste or gochujang paste (ssamjang is seasoned) as lettuce wraps and include some grilled scallion with that. On my rice in the square photo, that is a little sriracha as I like things pretty spicy sometimes.
