Spicy Gochujang Marinated Pork Belly is a beloved Korean dish with a rich history. Originating in the Gyeongsang province, this flavorful dish has been a staple in Korean cuisine for centuries. The marinade, made with spicy gochujang paste, soy sauce, garlic, and other seasonings, infuses the pork belly with a perfect balance of heat and sweetness. Renowned chefs like David Chang have popularized this dish in the West, and it has become a favorite in Korean BBQ restaurants worldwide. For the best version of this dish, head to Seoul, where expert chefs meticulously prepare and grill the marinated pork belly to perfection. The key to this dish lies in the quality of the pork belly and the balance of flavors in the marinade. For a unique twist, consider slow-roasting the pork belly in the oven for an alternative method that yields tender, succulent meat.
