Grayce’s Bulkogi

This makes enough marinade for 1-2 lb. of meat. Flank steak or tri-tip are recommended, but any cut of beef will do. Steaks are really good, if you have lots of money to spare. Double or triple recipe as needed.

1 T. vinegar (rice vinegar recommended)

2 T. sesame seeds (black or white)

2 T. sesame oil

¼ c. green onions, minced

2 T. garlic, minced

1 T. ginger root, minced or 1/2 t. ground ginger

2 T. sugar

3 T. soy sauce

Sriracha, to taste (optional)

Mix all ingredients in a gallon ziplock bag. If marinating more than 3 or 4 lbs. of meat, you may want to use multiple bags or a 2 gallon bag. Squeeze the bag to dissolve the sugar and distribute the garlic, ginger, and sesame seeds.

OPTIONAL: If desired, slice the meat into thin strips. Partially frozen meat helps get thin, even slices.

Place the meat in the bag in a single layer. Marinate 2 hours to overnight.

Remove meat from marinade and grill over medium-high heat to desired doneness. If using sliced meat, stir-frying is probably a better option. Vegetables (carrots, mushrooms, onions, etc. can be added to stir-fry, if desired).

Serve with sticky rice.
