Instructions

  1. 1Trim the beef rib strips
    A close-up view of a hand using a knife to remove the white fascia from a raw beef rib strip.

    Using a sharp knife, carefully trim away the thin, tough layer of white fascia from the surface of the raw beef rib strip to ensure a tender texture.

    Tip: Removing this connective tissue is key to preventing the meat from becoming chewy during the grilling process.
  2. 2Slice against the grain
    The beef rib strip being sliced into uniform pieces with a knife, cutting across the visible grain of the meat.

    Cut the beef rib strips into small, bite-sized pieces. It is essential to slice perpendicular to the grain to break up the muscle fibers and maximize tenderness.

    Tip: Observe the direction of the muscle fibers on the meat before you start cutting so you can easily identify the direction to slice against.
  3. 3Season and marinate
    A gloved hand mixing seasoned raw beef strips and minced garlic in a polished metal bowl.

    Wearing a protective plastic glove, combine the sliced raw beef strips with minced garlic and your chosen seasonings in a metal bowl. Mix thoroughly to ensure every piece is evenly coated.

    Tip: Massaging the marinade into the meat helps the flavors penetrate deeper, leading to more delicious results.
  4. 4Ready for grilling

    Once fully coated and marinated, arrange the seasoned raw beef rib strips into a serving bowl. They are now prepared and ready to be placed on the grill.

    Tip: Keep the bowl chilled until you are ready to put the beef on the grill to maintain food safety.

Frequently Asked Questions

The fascia is a tough, connective tissue that does not break down quickly during the short cooking time required for thin beef strips. Removing it ensures every bite is tender rather than chewy.
While rib strips provide excellent marbling, you can use flank or skirt steak as substitutes. Just ensure you still slice against the grain for maximum tenderness.
Yes, you can marinate from 30 minutes up to 4 hours. Avoid exceeding 4 hours, as the salt and garlic can start to change the texture of the meat too much.
