Step 1
Pat pork ribs dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
Step 2
Whisk grated pear, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil in a bowl until sugar dissolves.
Step 3
Place ribs in a large zip-top bag or shallow dish. Pour marinade over ribs, coating evenly.
Step 4
Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for deeper flavor.
Step 5
Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Step 6
Remove ribs from marinade, letting excess drip off. Reserve marinade in a small bowl.
Step 7
Grill ribs 5–6 minutes per side, basting with reserved marinade halfway through, until charred and cooked through.
Step 8
Transfer to a serving platter. Garnish with sliced scallions and sesame seeds if desired. Serve hot.
