Instructions
Watch how to make this recipe.
Combine the juice, sugar, tamari, peppercorns, ground pepper, salt, anise and ginger in a saucepan. Cook over high heat, stirring occasionally, until reduced by half. Strain and cool.
For the grilled boneless short ribs: Toss the ribs with 1/2 cup of the glaze, reserving the remaining glaze. Set aside the ribs at room temperature for 30 minutes. Prepare the grill for direct grilling at medium-high heat.
Remove the ribs from the glaze, shaking off the excess.
Brush the ribs with the oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the ribs until nicely charred and still pink in the middle, about 3 minutes each side.
Brush the ribs occasionally with the reserved glaze.
Combine the peanuts, onions, sugar, allspice, cinnamon and sprinkle lightly with salt.
Transfer the ribs to a platter and top with the green onion-peanut relish.
Recommended wine: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir
Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Pinot Noir are great choices for Beef Short Ribs. Beef and red wine are a classic combination. Generally, leaner cuts of beef go well with light or medium-bodied reds, such as pinot noir or merlot, while fattier cuts can handle a bold red, such as cabernet sauvingnon. The Darioush Signature Merlot with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 69 dollars per bottle.
Darioush Signature Merlot
The moderate 2008 growing season yielded small amounts of mature, highly-concentrated Merlot. The resulting wine offers a profile of dense, expressive dark fruit– black raspberry, cherry and dried fig supported by a tight core of dark cocoa, licorice and cola. Sweet, succulent tannins add textural complexity, while a beautiful, long finish reveals notes of rosemary, cinnamon and graham cracker. Blend: 90% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Cabernet Franc
