How to Make Barbecued Beef Pulgogi

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons sesame oil, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 teaspoon black pepper, 4 cloves minced garlic, 2 green onions (finely chopped), and 1 tablespoon sesame seeds.
  2. Slice 1 lb beef thinly (about 1/8 inch thick) into 2 x 2 inch pieces. Sirloin, ribeye, or flank steak work well.
  3. Add the sliced beef to the soy sauce mixture, ensuring all pieces are evenly coated.
  4. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 2 hours for maximum flavor.
  5. Preheat your oven's broiler or prepare your grill to medium-high heat.
  6. Broil or grill the marinated beef for 2-3 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness. Avoid overcooking to maintain tenderness.
  7. Serve immediately with steamed rice, kimchi, and other favorite Korean side dishes.
