L.A. Korean Short Rib Tacos
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup honey
- 3 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons mirin
- 1 medium pear (about 4 oz.), peeled and grated
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon grated peeled fresh ginger
- 3/4 teaspoon black pepper, divided
- 3 pounds Korean-style, bone-in beef short ribs, flanken cut (thinly, across the bone)
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 cups sliced napa cabbage (about 12 oz.)
- 1 cup drained jarred kimchi cabbage, plus 3 Tbsp. kimchi juice from jar
- 1 cup loosely packed cilantro leaves
- 1/4 cup sliced scallions (about 2 scallions)
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (about 1 lime)
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 16 (6-in.) yellow corn tortillas, warmed
- Prepare the short ribs: Whisk together soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, mirin, pear, garlic, ginger, and 1/2 teaspoon of the pepper until well blended. Place ribs in a large zip-top plastic freezer bag; pour soy sauce mixture over ribs. Seal bag, and turn to coat. Chill 8 hours or overnight.
- Preheat grill to high (450u0b0F to 550u0b0F). Prepare the kimchi slaw: Stir together all kimchi slaw ingredients in a medium bowl. Let stand 10 minutes.
- Drain ribs; discard marinade. Sprinkle ribs with 1/2 teaspoon salt and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Place ribs on oiled grates, and grill, uncovered, until browned and cooked to medium-rare, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove bones and fat, and cut meat into 1-inch pieces. Place about 1 ounce meat on each warm tortilla. Top with 1/2 cup kimchi slaw.
