Indulge in air-fried Korean BBQ beef ribs with a gochujang glaze. Juicy, crispy, and packed with flavor, these ribs redefine comfort food indulgence.
Ingredients
- • Beef short ribs: 2 lbs
- • Soy sauce: 1/2 cup
- • Brown sugar: 1/4 cup
- • Gochujang (Korean chili paste): 3 tablespoons
- • Rice vinegar: 2 tablespoons
- • Garlic, minced: 4 cloves
- • Ginger, grated: 1 tablespoon
- • Sesame oil: 1 tablespoon
- • Honey: 2 tablespoons
- • Green onions, sliced: 2 for garnish
- • Sesame seeds: 1 tablespoon for garnish
- • Black pepper: 1 teaspoon
- • Salt: to taste
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). This step is crucial to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
- 2 In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, gochujang, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, honey, black pepper, and salt. Mix until the sugar is dissolved and the marinade is smooth.
- 3 Add the beef short ribs to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Let them marinate for at least 20 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse into the meat.
- 4 Place the marinated ribs in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 25 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure even browning and crispiness.
- 5 Once the ribs are cooked through and have a crispy exterior, remove them from the air fryer. Brush with additional gochujang glaze for an extra kick of flavor.
- 6 Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds before serving. Enjoy these ribs hot and fresh for the best experience.
Serving Suggestions
- • These air-fried Korean BBQ beef ribs are best served with a side of steamed jasmine rice or sticky rice to balance out the richness of the ribs. For a refreshing contrast, pair them with a crisp cucumber salad tossed in a light sesame dressing. A cold Korean beer or a chilled glass of sake complements the spice and sweetness of the dish perfectly, adding to the overall indulgence.
Storage Tips
Store any leftover ribs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. To reheat, place them back in the air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-7 minutes until heated through and crispy. Avoid microwaving to maintain the texture and flavor.
