Ingredients

• 1/2 apple (skin on), cored, chopped
• 6 garlic cloves, peeled, crushed
• 1/2 cup orange marmalade
• 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
• 1 tablespoon dry sake or dry white wine
• 2 teaspoon gochugaru (Korean red pepper powder)
• 1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
• 1/2 cup soy sauce
• 2 pounds 1/4"-thick cross-cut bone-in beef short ribs (flanken style)
• Vegetable oil (for grilling)

Instructions

1. Pulse apple, garlic, marmalade, brown sugar, sesame oil, sesame seeds, sake, gochugaru, and pepper in a food processor or blender until garlic and apple are finely chopped.
2. Transfer to a large dish and mix in soy sauce. Add ribs and turn to coat. Let sit, massaging meat and turning occasionally, at least 10 minutes.
3. Prepare grill for medium-high heat; oil grate with vegetable oil. Remove ribs from marinade and grill, turning once, until lightly charred and cooked through, about 2 minutes per side for medium-rare.
