Galbi (Kalbi) Korean Marinated Rib BBQ

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine all ingredients except meat. Whisk until sugar has dissolved. This marinade can be store in a refrigerator for 10 days when you are ready to use and you can marinade unto 3 pounds of meat of your choice.

Step 2

Add your choice of meat into marinade sauce and marinate at least 2 hours to overnight. (Overnight will be the best for perfectly tenderized meat and flavors) You can use either mixing bowl or ziplock bags. Do not marinate meat over 2 days, otherwise kiwi/pineapple breakdown protein of meat too much, it will be a mush texture and you don’t want that.

Step 3

When you are ready to cook Galbi, remove meat from marinade first and pour marinade into a sauce pan and bring it to boil. When it starts boiling, reduce heat to medium and cook sauce about 10 minutes. Skim as you needed.* This will be a delicious dipping sauce for Galbi!

Step 4

You can grill galbi over medium high heat until meat is cooked to your desire doneness. If you want to cook indoor, just use a nonstick skillet (it’s easier to clean later) and pan fry them.

Step 5

Galbi is more delicious and enjoyable with some Korean side dishes. Most of times, it serves with Ssamjang, some type of kimchi, some type of mini hot pot dish (steamed egg, doenjang jjigae or etc.) and definitely warm cooked rice or spicy cold noodles. Hope you enjoy Galibi, Korean BBQ at home!!
