Secret ingredient? SPRITE. That's what I said.
It makes the meat surprisingly tender and barbeques great!
In gredients:
3 lbs short ribs 1/4 C sesame seeds toasted 1 C soy sayce 1 C sugar 1Tbsp sesame oil 1 tsp pepper 1 C green onion, chopped 3 cloves garlic 1 can sprite
If you can't get short ribs where you are, any kind of thin steak will do, boneless or not. Just slice it up after you've grilled it.
(If looking at raw meat makes you sick, as it does me, then don't look to the right, just keep on reading)
Put the meat in a container with a lid.
Combine all the ingredients and mix well. Pour over the meat and seal well, put in the fridge, 5-8 hours is best, turning now and then to make sure all the meat gets soaked. Sometimes I even do it overnight.
Grill the meat, only a few minutes each side, since the cut is pretty thin. Let rest for a few minutes, then serve.
It's the SPRITE that does the trick here, folks. That's good stuff.
Serve with a bunch of cold side dishes. Yum!
