Sweet & Smoky Asian Beef Ribs

I've made these a number of times - it's a tasty recipe and you can modify the seasonings to personal preference.

Ingredients:

1 cup soy sauce
1 cup sesame seed oil
1 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon green onions
1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic

1 teaspoon liquid smoke
2 lbs beef short ribs

1 teaspoon sesame seeds (for garnish)

Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions:
Mix all marinade ingredients in a bowl, stirring until the brown sugar is dissolved.  Place ribs in a pan and pour the marinade over them.  Marinate for at least 4 hours and up to overnight.

When ready to prepare the ribs, remove from pan and discard the marinade.  Pat dry with paper towels.  Preheat grill to medium high.  Grill ribs for 3-4 minutes per side for medium rare.  Let the ribs rest for 5 minutes, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and serve.

Don't be surprised if your guests drool a little bit and look like this:

Also, be careful with your hands, you could lose a finger if you don't pass these out quickly enough.
