🥘Ingredients

For the Short Ribs

3 pounds beef short ribs
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

For the Marinade/Sauce

1/4 cup honey
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
1/4 cup rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1/2 cup beef broth

👨‍🍳Directions

1In a large bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, garlic, ginger, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and beef broth to make the marinade.
