Ingredients

• 4 pounds Beef short ribs
• 0.5 cup Soy sauce
• 0.5 cup Hoisin sauce
• 0.25 cup Brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
• 4 count Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger, grated
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 1 cup Water
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 2 count Scallions, sliced (for garnish)
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).

Step 2

In a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven, arrange the beef short ribs in a single layer.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, hoisin sauce, brown sugar, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, and water to make the sauce.

Step 4

Pour the sauce over the beef short ribs, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover the pot tightly with a lid or aluminum foil.

Step 5

Place the pot in the preheated oven and braise the ribs for 2.5 hours, turning them once halfway through cooking.

Step 6

After 2.5 hours, remove the pot from the oven and carefully transfer the ribs to a plate. Skim any excess fat from the remaining sauce in the pot.

Step 7

Place the pot over medium heat on the stovetop. In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to make a slurry. Stir the slurry into the sauce and simmer for 5-7 minutes until thickened.

Step 8

Return the beef ribs to the pot, tossing them to coat in the sticky glaze. Simmer for an additional 10 minutes to develop the flavors.

Step 9

Transfer the sticky beef bones to a serving platter, spooning extra sauce over them.

Step 10

Garnish with sliced scallions and sesame seeds before serving. Enjoy!
