Pro Tips
**Chef's Tips & Troubleshooting:**
- Brush the grill grates with oil before cooking to prevent the meat from sticking.
- Let grilled meat rest for 3-5 minutes after cooking so the juices redistribute evenly.
- Baste the meat with oil or marinade while grilling to keep it moist and flavorful.
- Use a meat thermometer to check doneness: 130°F for medium-rare, 160°F for well-done.
Cooking Tips
Let the meat rest at room temperature for 15–20 minutes before grilling so it cooks evenly from edge to center. Baste the marinade on during the last few minutes of grilling — applying it too early can char the sugars and create bitter flavors.
Ingredient Substitutions
No soy sauce? Use tamari (gluten-free), coconut aminos (paleo-friendly), or a mix of fish sauce and water for a different but delicious umami profile. For a low-sodium version, use light soy sauce or dilute regular soy sauce with a splash of water or broth. Beef alternatives: For stews, pork shoulder or oxtail provide similar richness. For steaks, try portobello mushrooms or cauliflower steaks for a vegetarian twist. Short on time? A pressure cooker (Instant Pot) can reduce cooking time by roughly half for most braised and stewed Filipino dishes. Reduce liquid slightly since less evaporates.
Storage & Reheating
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3–4 days. The flavors often deepen overnight, making leftovers even more delicious. Reheat on the stovetop over medium-low heat, adding a splash of water or broth if the sauce has thickened during storage. Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring between each.
BBQ Beef Short Ribs
Juicy beef short ribs marinated in a sweet and savory glaze, grilled until tender and caramelized to perfection.
Instructions
- Make the marinade by combining all the ingredients (except for the beef short ribs) in a bowl. Mix well.
- Place the beef short ribs in a large Ziploc bag or a container with cover and then pour-in the marinade.
- Make sure that the beef is coated with marinade. Place inside the fridge and marinate for at least 3 hours.
- Heat the grill and then start grilling the beef short ribs. Try grilling each side for 5 minutes in medium heat. Lower the grill time if the heat is too much.
- Serve with Worcestershire sauce.
