EASY BULGOGI (KOREAN BBQ BEEF)



Easy Bulgogi (Korean BBQ Beef) image

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.

BULGOGI BEEF (KOREAN-STYLE BARBECUE)



Bulgogi Beef (Korean-Style Barbecue) image

In the best examples I've had of beef bulgogi in Korean restaurants, the meat, while tender, still had a little bit of chewiness to it. You can control texture by the thickness or thinness of the slices and how long you marinate them. But this is a fairly fast-acting marinade, so I go with an hour or two.

GRILLED KOREAN BULGOGI BEEF



Grilled Korean Bulgogi Beef image

I say "bulgogi", you say "pul-kogi". Truthfully, I'm not really sure how you're supposed to say it but, no matter how you say it, it's tasty. Apparently 'Bulgogi' translates as 'fire-meat' in Korean. The flavour in this dish but it's definitely not 'subtle'. You know you've had something to eat after you've had it - lots of salt, garlic and soy combine for mega-umami! I did NOT include the overnight marinating. Enjoy!

Categories     Steak

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb rib eye steak, thick cut, thinly sliced against the grain (they recommend the rib eye, it is good to have some marbling in the meat)
6 garlic cloves, minced, this is not a 'date night' dish
1/2 pear, diced (a pear? What the...?)
2 green onions, sliced
4 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon rice wine (white wine works in a pinch)
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
black pepper (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine all marinade ingredients. Add the sliced beef and marinate overnight in the fridge.
  • Grill quickly at high heat. The beef cooks very fast when it's sliced thin so don't wander away. It only takes a minute or 2 on each side!
  • Serve over noodles or rice or over greens for a delicious, Asian-style salad.

Korean-Style Bulgogi Beef Tacos image

My husband and son share an insatiable appetite for Korean barbeque--and an equally strong dislike of the lettuce leaves traditionally used to wrap the beef. One night, inspired by Korean food trucks, we decided to experiment with our own version, wrapping marinated Korean bulgogi in hot corn tortillas--they were an instant hit, filled with crisp, spicy sweet cucumber, creamy avocado, crunchy scallion, and a punch of gochujang, a Korean hot pepper paste.

Number Of Ingredients 25

2 pounds rib-eye steaks
½ yellow onion, cut into chunks
½ Asian pear, peeled and coarsely chopped
4 cloves garlic, peeled
1 (1/2 inch) piece ginger root, peeled
¼ cup sake
¼ cup soy sauce
¼ cup dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 teaspoons gochugaru (Korean red pepper flakes), or to taste
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon salt
5 small cucumbers, cut into 1/8-inch slices
2 green onions, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds
12 (6 inch) white corn tortillas
1 avocado, thinly sliced
5 green onions, thinly sliced on the diagonal
½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons gochujang (Korean hot pepper paste), or to taste

Steps:

  • Trim excess fat from beef and slice very thinly across the grain. Transfer beef to a container.
  • Place onion, pear, garlic, ginger, and sake in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy. Add soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, and black pepper. Pulse until marinade is well mixed.
  • Pour marinade over beef. Gently massage beef for a minute or two. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
  • Mix vinegar, sugar, garlic, gochugaru, sesame oil, and salt together in a large bowl. Add cucumbers and green onions and mix gently by hand. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Remove beef from refrigerator about 20 minutes before cooking.
  • Heat canola oil in a cast iron pan over high heat. Cook beef in batches, one layer at a time, stirring until nicely browned, about 3 minutes. Avoid overcrowding beef, or it will end up steaming instead of browning. Transfer to a serving plate and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
  • Heat tortillas in another skillet, about 1 minute. Transfer to a serving platter and cover to keep warm. Serve beef bulgogi with the tortillas, cucumber salad, and avocado, green onions, and cilantro as garnishes. Drizzle gochujang over tacos, mixing it with a little water if too thick.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: For the best bulgogi, use a thinly sliced cut of beef that is well-marinated. Some good options include flank steak, skirt steak, or rib eye steak.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what gives bulgogi its signature flavor. Be sure to use a marinade that is packed with flavor, such as soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil.
  • Marinate the beef for at least 30 minutes: The longer you marinate the beef, the more flavorful it will be. If you're short on time, you can marinate the beef for as little as 30 minutes, but for the best results, marinate it for at least an hour or two.
  • Cook the beef over high heat: Bulgogi is traditionally cooked over a high heat, which helps to caramelize the marinade and create a slightly crispy texture.
  • Don't overcook the beef: Bulgogi is best when it is cooked quickly over high heat. Overcooking the beef will make it tough and chewy.
  • Serve bulgogi with a variety of sides: Bulgogi is a delicious dish that can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, noodles, vegetables, and kimchi.

Conclusion:

Bulgogi is a delicious and versatile Korean dish that is easy to make at home. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting dish to try, give bulgogi a try!
