Try these supremely tender and delicious oven baked Korean BBQ beef ribs! They are a crowd pleaser and great to serve on special dinner occasions!
With the festive season approaching, I’ve been getting requests for Korean foods that are suitable for hosting a party. In case you don’t know, I have a huge recipe collection for Korean party food, so you should definitely check that one out!
And, I’d like to add today’s special recipe – Oven Baked Korean BBQ Beef Ribs to this collection.
Baked Korean BBQ Beef Ribs are super easy and simple to make as well.
Simply, prepare the marinade by blending the sauce ingredients in a blender or food processor. Marinate the ribs in the sauce for at least 4 hours, but ideally for 24 hrs to enhance the flavor. Cook the ribs in the oven for 8 hours. Voilà! There you have it.
Because they are cooked slowly for a long time, these beef ribs are so tender. Also, the smell is so tempting and heavenly.
These baked Korean BBQ beef ribs are totally appropriate for special occasions such as Thanksgiving day, Christmas and New Year’s day. Or even a date night! You will be a popular host.
So try them soon and let me know what you thought of them!
Ingredients for Oven Baked Korean BBQ Beef Ribs
Main
- 2kg (4.4 pounds) beef back ribs, membrane removed
Marinade
- 3/4 cup soy sauce (I used kikkoman soy sauce)
- 6 Tbsp brown sugar
- 1/4 cup rice wine (mirin)
- 1 red apple or asian pear (230 g / 8.1 ounces), cored
- 1 onion (180 g / 6.3 ounces)
- 2 Tbsp minced garlic
- 2 tsp minced ginger
- 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
* This marinade is the same marinade I use for Bulgogi (Korean BBQ Beef) recipe.
** 1 Tbsp = 15 ml, 1 Cup = 250 ml
How to Make Korean BBQ Beef Ribs in the Oven
1. Blend all the marinade ingredients in a blender or food processor until smooth, then set aside.
2. Pour the marinade over the meat, making sure it coats all sides evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours—ideally 24 hours for the best flavor and tenderness.
3. Preheat the oven to 100°C (212°F) for 20 minutes. Line a baking sheet or roasting pan with baking paper or aluminum foil, then place the marinated rack of ribs on top. Spoon a little of the marinade around the ribs, but discard the rest. Cook for 8 hours.
4. Remove the meat from the oven, carve into pieces, and serve.
Serving Suggestions
As with a typical Korean BBQ, these baked beef ribs are great to serve with some steamed rice, kimchi, lettuce leaves, and Korean spicy dipping sauce. I also specially made some pickled radishes and carrots to go with it and it complimented these ribs very well!
Note
Typically the membrane is removed prior to cooking ribs and here’s how. If you don’t, there will be a rubbery part you will reluctantly chew through or will want to discard during the meal.
