From Korean-style kalbi ribs to classic pork ribs basted in barbecue sauce, here are our test kitchen's best rib recipes for summer. Let's get grilling!
Pineapple-Soy-Marinated Beef Short Ribs
Look for the 1⁄4-in.-thin-cut flanken-style beef short ribs for the most delicious fall-off-the-bone ribs. The 1⁄2-in.-thick ones will work in a pinch, but the marinade won’t permeate the meat as thoroughly. The marinade’s sweet-spicy-umami combination makes it irresistible.
