This is by far my favorite recipe to make with the Sous Vide machine (so far). I've had varied results making teriyaki beef short ribs by braising or simmering. The flavor has been there, but the ribs would never stay together. Using the perfect temperature control of Sous Vide, I was able to achieve my ideal consistency of the short rib, while having a better visual presentation.
I like to pair these short ribs with horseradish mashed potatoes and some type of zingy veggie like Kimchi. Here is a quick snapshot of the process and a rough recipe:
Process:
Prepare your teriyaki sauce first. Dice the garlic, ginger and chiles and simmer in 1T of sesame oil. Add the wet ingredients and sugar and simmer the sauce until it's thickened and coats the back of a spoon. Adjust the sauce as needed.
Vacuum seal the beef short ribs with 2 T of teriyaki sauce per short rib.
Place the rib packs into the immersion circulated water bath at 63C for 48 hours. Use a plate if they float above the water line.
Remove the ribs from the pouches after the timer goes off and brown all sides of them in a saute pan. Brush with the teriyaki sauce before serving.
Ingredients: (qty for 4 short ribs)
1T sesame oil
a few garlic cloves
1 inch ginger, diced
1-2 birdseye chiles
1 cup soy sauce
dash of rice wine vinegar
2/3 cup brown sugar (to taste)
4 beef short ribs

I really appreciate you sharing that. Getting a sous vide immersion circulator has been my best purchase this year, which cooks meat incredibly juicy and tender.
