Instructions

  1. 1

    Soak 1kg pork ribs in cold water for 30 minutes to draw out blood.

  2. 2

    Blend half a pear, 1 onion, and 5 garlic cloves to make the marinade base.

  3. 3

    Mix blended base with soy sauce, sugar, corn syrup, ginger, sesame oil, and pepper.

  4. 4

    Coat ribs thoroughly with marinade and refrigerate at least 2 hours (overnight is best).

  5. 5

    Preheat grill or pan on medium-high and cook ribs 5-6 minutes per side.

  6. 6

    Boil remaining marinade into a glaze and brush over the grilled ribs.

  7. 7

    Garnish with sliced green onion and sesame seeds before serving.

Tips

Pear juice tenderizes the meat, so do not skip it.
A splash of cola in the marinade adds gloss and tenderness.
Let ribs sit at room temperature 20 minutes before grilling for even cooking.
