Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 apple (skin on), cored, chopped
6 garlic cloves, peeled, crushed
1/2 cup orange marmalade
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
1 tablespoon dry sake or dry white wine
2 teaspoon gochugaru (Korean red pepper powder)
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup soy sauce
2 pounds 1/4"-thick cross-cut bone-in beef short ribs (flanken style)
Vegetable oil (for grilling)

Steps:

Pulse apple, garlic, marmalade, brown sugar, sesame oil, sesame seeds, sake, gochugaru, and pepper in a food processor or blender until garlic and apple are finely chopped.
Transfer to a large dish and mix in soy sauce. Add ribs and turn to coat. Let sit, massaging meat and turning occasionally, at least 10 minutes.
Prepare grill for medium-high heat; oil grate with vegetable oil. Remove ribs from marinade and grill, turning once, until lightly charred and cooked through, about 2 minutes per side for medium-rare.
