When it comes to Korean BBQ, there are endless options of meat, including seafood, with or without marinades. BulGoGi (불고기) is one of the most popular Korean BBQ that are enjoyed by many. BulGoGi (불고기) literally means "Fire" (Bul 불) "meat" (GoGi 고기). It is meant to be grilled on super high "fire." BulGoGi (불고기) is also a huge comfort food in Korean cuisine. Ok, it is a high-end comfort food...:-)

INSTRUCTIONS

Marinading The Meats:

- If you don't live near a Korean market to purchase the pre-sliced rib eye beef, freeze the meat for 30 minutes (or until half frozen) before slicing the meat at home.

- Presoak the sliced beef in a big bowl with cold water (completely submerged) for 5 - 10 minutes.

- Using a colander, let the pre-soaked meats drain naturally for 10 minutes (do not squeeze out the excess water).

- Using a large bowl, mix the marinade ingredients thoroughly.

- Add your meat and thoroughly coat all the sliced meats. (I prefer to use my hands to mix, wearing Korean disposable kitchen gloves.)

- Store the marinaded meets in your refrigerator overnight (12 hours). If you are pressed for time, let it marinate for an hour in the refrigerator or 30 minutes on your kitchen counter. (Make sure to double bag or store in an air-tight container.)

- For freezing the marinaded Bulgogi for future consumption, please make sure to double/triple bag your marinaded meats in smaller portion sizes for our traditional Korean and non-traditional recipes.

Cooking Your BulGoGi Sizzling Restaurant Style:

- Use a non-stick frying pan. Set the heat to high at first, add 1 tbsp of olive oil and lightly sear the meats on high heat (2-3 minutes/light brown marks on the meat), then lower the heat to medium. (On another stove, set it to high, and place the sizzling plate and preheat for 2 to 3 minutes.) Turn over the meat and finish cooking for 2 to 3 minutes. Use your chopsticks to break up the meat. Set the stove heat to low and add the Beef Dashida powder, mixed in with a Tbsp of water, to the pan and mix well for 30 to 60 seconds. Turn off the heat.

- Once the sizzling plate is heated to super high temperature, turn on your exhaust fan, lower the stove heat to medium, add 1 Tbsp of olive oil, sliced onions, 2 Tbsp of water and cover with a large lid. (If you don't hear the sizzling sound when you add the onions, it means that you didn't preheat the sizzling plate to be hot enough.) . 60 seconds later, remove the lid and mix the onions around. You should see some grill marks on the onions. Turn the stove heat back to high. Then add the cooked BulGoGi on top of onions. Make sure to add all the BulGoGi juices to the sizzling plate. Garnish with some green onions. Now, it is ready to impress your lucky guests that will dine on this delicious restaurant style sizzling BulGoGi.

Outdoor Grilling:

- Place the meats, if possible using Korean grilling gadgets listed above. OR layer a thick sheet of foil (poke some holes on the sheet and lay your meat down) on the hottest part of the grill. Grill for 3-5 minutes and move/turn meats around to finish cooking. See the outdoor grilling gadgets listed above.

Using Your Oven At Broil Setting:

- Place your oven shelf at the highest setting. Preheat your oven for at least 5 minutes. Lay your meat on a baking sheet (center the meats in the middle so it is directly under the broiler heat) and place directly under the broiler heat. Cook for 3-4 minutes/until you see some brown marks on the meat. Turn the meat over, and let it cook for another 3-4 minutes/until you see some brown marks.
