2 tablespoons mirin
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper

To serve, cut between the bones with kitchen shears to make pieces that are easy to eat.

Notes

INGREDIENT TIP: Flanken-cut short ribs are also called “LA-Style galbi.” The meat is thinly sliced across the bone, so that the meat doesn’t have to marinate as long and is tender.

TIP: Some people use Coca-Cola or 7-Up in their meat marinade to help tenderize the meat, and although I don’t do that, it is a useful trick if you don’t have at least 4 hours to marinate the meat.
