1/4 cup brown sugar 🍯
4 garlic cloves, minced 🧄
2 tbsp sesame oil 🫒
2 green onions, chopped 🌱

Instructions 📋

Make the Marinade:
In a bowl, mix together the soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, and sesame oil. Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved. 🥢🧄🍯
Marinate the Ribs:
Coat the beef short ribs thoroughly with the marinade. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor. 🕒🥩
Pressure Cook:
Add the marinated ribs to the Instant Pot. Pressure cook on high for 45 minutes. 🕒💨
Natural Release:
Allow the pressure to release naturally. This keeps the meat extra tender. 💨👌

For that signature caramelized finish, place the ribs on a baking sheet and broil for 3-5 minutes until slightly charred. 🔥🍖
