Steps:
- 1. Slice all your meat thin, or have the butcher do it for you. Tell him you want it as thin as he can make it. It should get holes in it when slicing, but lunch meat thickness or a little thicker is easy to handle. You can use any type of Meat you want for this Marinade. Set Aside
- 2. Puree the Pear, garlic and ginger, and put in a large bowl and add the rest of the ingredients except the green onion. Mix until most of the sugar is dissolved.
- 3. Add the green onion & Sesame Salt, mix the marinade and taste. It should taste absolutely deliciously sweet with a taste of sesame oil, and soy sauce and all the other ingredients burst with flavor. In other words you should taste all of the ingredients at once and the soy sauce should not overpower the taste of the other ingredients. Adjust increments to reach that goal. As you can see in the photo you don't get much but it goes along way.
- 4. With your hands gently mix the marinade into the meat.
- 5. Cook on a Hot Hibachi Grill using chopsticks to turn meat over quickly. It will cook instantly and be done within 1 min. Or use a cast iron skillet that is hot and use 1 tbsp. of Peanut Oil to fry the meat in.
- 6. I have adjusted this recipe and is what I remember from that Cook Book. I know longer have that book, but I know what it is supposed to taste like. You can adjust the marinade to your liking.
- 7. Serve with Hinonde Rice, Sheets of Seaweed, Firm or Extra Firm Tofu(do not use silken tofu), Taekwan Radish, or Kimchi, and Wasabi. And always use chopsticks when eating Food from the Orient. It is designed that way.
- 8. Delicious Chef Tip: If you are frying this Make an extra Marinade Ratio, then use a big cast iron skillet that is heated on high heat and pour all the meat in with the marinade and let it cook 1/2 way through about 30 sec to 45 sec., then add square chunks of the Firm or Extra Firm Tofu (have it cut up and ready)and cook another 1 min. Let the Tofu soak up some the juice don't let your juice dry out or cook long. This all takes only about 2 min in all to do. You want the meat tender not over cooked. This is what my Japanese/Korean Mama would do, Using Chopsticks, Sooo Good! Omit the Peanut oil when frying it this way.
- 9. The peanut oil is used when frying a few pieces at a time to give it a more grilled like experience when you don't have a Hibachi.

Steps:
- Blend the marinade ingredients in a mixer or food processor until smooth. Set aside.
- Place the thinly sliced meat in a mixing bowl and pour the marinade over it. Mix them well together while gently massaging the meat with your hands. (Wearing a food prep glove is very handy here!)Add the sesame oil and mix it into the meat. (I prefer adding the sesame oil separately as opposed to mixing it in the marinade sauce. I read somewhere that the oil can prevent the other sauce getting absorbed effectively into the meat.)Cover the bowl with cling wrap (or move the marinated meat into a glass container with a lid) and marinate the meat for at least 4 hours in the fridge. (If you have more time, you can also marinate it overnight to deepen the flavour even more).
- Preheat a skillet / bbq grill on medium high heat until well heated. Add the cooking oil and spread it well. Add the meat (and vegetables) and cook it on medium high to high heat for 3 to 5 mins (until the meat and vegetables cook to your desired doneness). Toss in the sesame seeds and stir them quickly.
- Serve the bulgogi with steamed rice and other Korean side dishes. (refer above for more tips)

Just like my Korean mom makes it! It's delicious! Even better if rolled up in red leaf lettuce with rice and hot pepper paste. If you want to spice it up just add red pepper powder to your marinade.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef: For bulgogi, thinly sliced ribeye, sirloin, or flank steak is best. Look for meat that is well-marbled, as this will help keep it tender and juicy.
- Slice the beef thinly against the grain: This will help ensure that the meat cooks quickly and evenly.
- Use a good quality marinade: The marinade is what gives bulgogi its characteristic flavor. Be sure to use a marinade that contains soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil.
- Let the beef marinate for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors of the marinade to penetrate the meat.
- Cook the beef over high heat: Bulgogi is typically cooked over a hot grill or griddle. This will help to caramelize the marinade and create a nice crust on the meat.
- Don't overcook the beef: Bulgogi is best when it is cooked to medium-rare or medium. Overcooking will make the meat tough and chewy.
- Serve bulgogi with a variety of sides: Bulgogi is typically served with rice, lettuce, and a variety of other sides, such as kimchi, pickled vegetables, and gochujang sauce.

Bulgogi is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great option for a weeknight meal or a special occasion.
