• 2 kg beef short ribs
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 cloves garlic
• 1 bunch fresh oregano
• 3 pieces bell peppers
• 1 kg potatoes

Method

1. 1

   Begin by preparing the beef short ribs. Rub them with salt, black pepper, minced garlic, and olive oil. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

2. 2

   Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Once hot, place the marinated short ribs on the grill.

3. 3

   Grill the beef for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until nicely browned and cooked to your desired doneness.

4. 4

   While the beef is grilling, cut bell peppers in half and remove seeds. Brush them with olive oil, then grill alongside the beef until charred and tender.

5. 5

   In a separate pot, boil the potatoes until fork-tender. Drain and serve with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of salt.

6. 6

   Once the beef is done, let it rest for a few minutes. Serve it with grilled bell peppers and boiled potatoes on the side.

7. 7

   Garnish with fresh oregano before serving for added flavor.
