Preparation Steps
  1. Trim any excess fat from the bone-in beef short ribs. Pat dry and season with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat and sear the short ribs on all sides for 3-4 minutes until browned.
  3. Combine soy sauce, hoisin sauce, mirin, brown sugar, minced garlic, and grated ginger in a bowl and whisk until smooth.
  4. Transfer the ribs to a Dutch oven or roasting pan, pour marinade over, and cover tightly. Roast at 275°F (135°C) for 3 to 4 hours.
  5. Remove ribs and strain liquid into a skillet, simmer to reduce until it thickens, about 10-15 minutes. Stir in cornstarch slurry if desired.
  6. Optionally broil the ribs for 2-3 minutes after drizzling reduced glaze over them.
  7. Serve the ribs over rice or alongside vegetables, drizzling with remaining glaze and garnishing with green onions.
