  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Marinade:
    In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, honey, olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika, and black pepper until well combined.
  2. Marinate the Beef Short Ribs (optional):
    Place the beef short ribs in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the ribs, making sure they are evenly coated. Cover the dish or seal the bag, and let the ribs marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 4 hours, if time allows. This step enhances the flavor, but it's optional if you're short on time.
  3. Preheat the Grill:
    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375-400°F or 190-200°C). Make sure the grill grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.
  4. Grill the Beef Short Ribs:
    Remove the beef short ribs from the marinade and discard any excess marinade. Season the ribs with salt to taste.Place the ribs on the preheated grill and cook for about 15-20 minutes per side, or until they are nicely charred and cooked to your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches at least 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for medium.
  5. Baste with Marinade (optional):
    During the last 5-10 minutes of cooking, you can baste the ribs with any remaining marinade using a basting brush. This adds extra flavor and helps to keep the ribs moist.
  6. Rest and Serve:
    Once the beef short ribs are cooked to perfection, remove them from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in tender and juicy ribs. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve the grilled beef short ribs hot alongside your favorite sides like mashed potatoes, coleslaw, or grilled vegetables.
