"Smoked Beef Short Rib Marinade

Ingredients

  • 1 cup freshly brewed coffee
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 3 Tbls Gochugang paste
  • 2 Tbls honey
  • 1 Tbls grated ginger
  • 1 tsp sesame oil

Preparation

Step 1

I had visions of burnt ends floating through my head so I cut these beef ribs into two inch cubes to maximize the surface area exposed to the smoke.

The cubes were soaked 24 hours in the beef marinade recipe I used for the Flanken style ribs.

Then they were smoked for about three hours (240F, hickory) until they looked like this.

I put these smokey meat cubes into a foil pan with a can of low sodium beef broth then covered with foil and let them braise for an hour until fork tender.
