Kalbi BBQ Ribs Hawaiian Style
(14)
Recipe by meriah

This is one of our favorite things to BBQ, everyone here loves sweet meat. I have experimented for years, and this is the best, lots of input from friends, and it started from Korean recipes. In Hawaii, we have alot of mixed up ethnic foods. This is almost always served with steamed white rice and some potato-mac salad and some salted cabbage.

DIRECTIONS

  • Place ribs in a glass dish or a Tupperware marinator.
  • Mix all ingredients except for the optional ones in a pan and warm until the sugar melts, then cool.
  • Pour marinade over ribs, add optional ingredients if you like, and place in the refrigerator 4 hours or overnight, mixing up occasionally to make sure all ribs are covered with sauce.
  • Grill or broil until sizzling, being careful not to burn because of the sugar.
