EASY BULGOGI (KOREAN BBQ BEEF)
Most Bulgogi recipes call for crushed pear. This is for tenderizing the meat. My boyfriend's Korean mother says Coca-Cola® can also be used for the same purpose. This recipe uses very thin-sliced meat so tenderization isn't necessary. Sugar is used instead.

Steps:
- Preheat a grill or grill pan to high.
- Combine the sesame oil and salt in a small bowl and set aside.
- Thinly slice the scallion greens into 3-inch-long julienne. Stir together the soy sauce and rice vinegar in a small bowl. Add the scallions, toss and set aside.
- Lightly oil the grill and rub the grates with one of the onion rounds. Place the onions on the grill and grill until slightly charred and softened, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Move the onions off to the side to keep warm. Grill the rib-eye slices until browned and cooked to the desired doneness, about 2 minutes per side.
- To eat, dip a piece or two of the rib-eye into the seasoned sesame oil and then place in a lettuce leaf along with some grilled onions. Top with some marinated scallions and consume like a taco.
BULGOGI (KOREAN GRILLED BEEF)
Bulgogi, a Korean classic of marinated grilled beef, is easy to make and fun to eat; it's no wonder it is one of the country's most successful culinary exports. As with most Korean barbecue, the meat is seasoned with sesame and scallion, and has ripe pears in the marinade to tenderize the meat and add a characteristic sweetness. Round, pale yellow Asian pears are traditional, but Bosc pears are just fine. The meat is only half the recipe: Just as important are the crunchy vegetables, pungent herbs and savory sauces that all get wrapped together into delicious mouthfuls. Perilla is a common Korean herb in the mint family, but if you cannot find it, you can try other herbs like shiso or cilantro. Make sure to wrap your bundle tightly: According to Korean tradition, you must finish it in a single bite!

Steps:
- Wrap beef in plastic wrap or butcher paper and place in freezer for 1 to 2 hours to firm up.
- Cut beef across the grain into thin slices. If cooking in a skillet, slices should be less than 1/8 inch thick; do not worry if they are a bit ragged. If cooking on the grill, uniform slices, 1/8-inch thick, are best.
- In a food processor, combine garlic, pear, onion and ginger and process until very smooth and creamy, about 1 minute.
- In a bowl or sealable plastic bag, combine steak, marinade, scallion, soy sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar and pepper and mix well. Cover or seal, then refrigerate at least 30 minutes or overnight.
- When ready to cook and serve, prepare garnishes. Lettuce leaves should be mounded in a large basket or platter; small dishes can hold remaining garnishes. Keep vegetables cold.
- If using a cast-iron grill pan or large skillet, heat over high heat. Add all the meat and its juices to the pan. Cook, stirring constantly, until most (but not all) of the liquid has evaporated and the meat begins to brown around the edges. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve immediately, directly from the skillet (this will keep the meat hot). If using a charcoal or gas grill, heat to high. Working in batches if necessary, place the sliced meat on the grill and cook, turning often, just until cooked through and browned, about 2 minutes. If desired, heat an empty cast-iron skillet and use as a serving dish; this will keep the meat hot. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- To eat, lay a lettuce leaf open on your palm. Add a perilla leaf (if using), a small lump of rice, 1 or 2 pieces of meat and any other garnishes on top, then dab with sauce. Wrap by lifting up the edges of the lettuce leaf, then twisting them together to make a tight bundle. Eat each bundle in one bite, according to Korean tradition.

KOREAN BARBECUE BEEF, MARINADE 1
Bulgogi is traditionally eaten with white rice and a variety of sides, usually spicy ones. Most important, serve it with fresh red leaf lettuce, thinly sliced raw garlic, and some spicy fresh peppers to make a ssam: holding the lettuce in your palm, make a wrap that envelops the barbecued beef, some rice, the dipping sauce, and, if desired, the vegetables. Feel free to experiment!

Steps:
- 1. Trim the fat off the beef with a knife. Distribute the sugar evenly on the beef by sprinkling it on each piece. Allow beef to sit for 10 minutes.
- 2. In a separate bowl, mix together the soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, sugar, sake, and black pepper. Put aside.
- 3. Massage the beef with the kiwi juice using your hands. The kiwi works as a tenderizer. Add the soy sauce mixture and mix. Allow the beef to marinate for 10 minutes. Because the beef is thin, it doesn't require a long marinating time. Now it is ready to be barbecued. Ideal if grilled over smoked wood but just as good in a frying pan or skillet. Cook until browned, being careful not to overcook.
- 4. Last, to prepare dipping sauce, combine all sauce ingredients and cook over low heat for 15 to 20 minutes. Serve on the side.
Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef: For Korean barbecue, thin slices of beef are best. Look for cuts like flank steak, skirt steak, or rib eye steak.
- Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef in a flavorful sauce helps to tenderize it and add flavor. Common ingredients in Korean barbecue marinades include soy sauce, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, and gochujang (Korean chili paste).
- Cook the beef over high heat: Korean barbecue is traditionally cooked over a grill or barbecue. Cook the beef over high heat for a short period of time to keep it tender and juicy.
- Serve the beef with a variety of sides: Korean barbecue is often served with a variety of sides, such as rice, noodles, vegetables, and kimchi. These sides help to balance the flavors of the beef.
Conclusion:
Korean barbecue is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its bold flavors and variety of side dishes, Korean barbecue is a great option for a party or a weeknight meal. So next time you're looking for something new to try, give Korean barbecue a try. You won't be disappointed!
