Korean BBQ beef, also known as bulgogi, has a rich history dating back to the Goguryeo era in Korea. This marinated, thinly sliced beef dish was traditionally prepared for royalty and special occasions. The meat is marinated in a blend of soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, garlic, and pear, resulting in a sweet and savory flavor. Today, bulgogi is a staple in Korean cuisine and is enjoyed worldwide. In South Korea, restaurants like Mapo Galmaegi in Seoul are renowned for their expertly grilled bulgogi. The key to perfect bulgogi lies in the quality of the beef and the balance of flavors in the marinade. For a twist, some chefs use alternative meats like pork or chicken, offering a unique take on this classic dish.
