The Best Mongolian Beef Ribs

There are several different ways to prepare Mongolian Beef Ribs.  I decided to go with the Asian Style Flanked Rib because I often see them at Chinese Buffets.  I also use the slow and low method to ensure I get some tender meat.  The sauce I use as a marinade but I don’t separate it from the ribs when I bake them.  I cook the ribs right in it.  Then afterwards I add the sauce back into a pan to reduce and thicken further by adding corn starch.  Once it caramelizes, I drizzle the glaze over the top of the rib meat and sprinkle freshly chopped scallions.

Beef and Broccoli with Teriyaki

Beef and Broccoli

The Best Beef and Broccoli is Teriyaki Beef

In my opinion, your typical Beef and Broccoli recipe lacks flavor.  That’s why I’m using a Teriyaki marinade for this recipe.  It just gives it a real smooth lift I think the traditional recipe is screaming for.  However, If you are looking for that traditional flavor you can still use this recipe because it’s still one in the same, minus the Teriyaki.  Just use 1/3 cup of Chicken Broth, 2 tsp Soy sauce, 1 tsp sugar, a pinch of ginger and Corn Starch to thicken it up.  It’s not rocket science.  But if you’re looking for a good Teriyaki Marinade, Veri Veri is really good!

If you’d like a more professional Teriyaki Sauce recipe, that Chinese restaurants make in their kitchens, I have short video tutorial and post with all of the ingredients you can search on this website.
