Korean beef barbecue ("LA Galbi": 갈비) 

Great recipe! I used kiwis instead of pears and it was very tender.

I don't know why, but I keep watching cooking videos before going to bed now.

Hi Maangchi! i just made this for my family tonight. It was marinated overnight, and the taste is heavenly!! we all agreed no more korean restaurant Galbi for us. It's much cheaper to make this at home :) Happy happy. Thank you for your recipe :)

@lilswtangel Thank you very much! 2 years! I'm sure you checked my website. : ) I provided the most delicious marinade recipe for Korean bbq that I have developed so far, but as I mentioned in the video, you can grill, pan-fried, or broil and charcoal grill. Charcoal bbq is the best. You can do some experiments. Come to my home on the internet and talk about your questions and thoughts with my other readers!

@lingaseb at a Korean grocery store. Check the recipe on my website. Written recipe, photos, and tips are posted. Thank you!

Hi, everybody, thank you very much for your encouraging comments! I'm working on my written recipe now. The detailed recipe including the dipping sauce, photos, ingredients, and tips will be posted soon on my website. Thank you again!

I made a version of this today 1/3c mirin 1/3c soy sauce 1/4c brown sugar substituted for the honey I thought I had and didnt. black pepper 2 teaspoons sesame oil 2 small pears 1 onion 8 cloves of garlic a chunk of ginger a pound and a half of top round roast sliced 1/4 inch I let it marinade for about 4 hours then grilled it over a charcoal hibachi I didn't have all the side dishes soi made due with Jasmine rice, some grilled mushrooms and green onion. i used sambal sauce and wrapped it in romaine lettuce. it was amazing even though it was pretty much improvised. I could only imagine how much better it would be with the full on experience.

@lilswtangel My friend bought it for me when we went to a Korean festival event in Toronto 2 years ago. It was under $3.00! Check either Korean grocery store or Japanese store.

@TheMochaProductions yes, check out my website. I have posted a few rice cake recipes on my website.

I make this about once a month, my family loves it!! I just need to get your cookbook. Next I'm going to make your Kimchee. I love watching your videos, they're very easy to follow. Happy New Year!!

Thank you so much for your interest in my videos! Cheers!

My recipe is on my website now! Thank you very much! Leave your questions under the recipe on my website. I will answer you as soon as possible.

@chunkatty LA style beef short ribs are cut thinly, so they are very tender. Use your grill, no problem. Mine is disposable. It's already gone. : ) I broil my LA galbi and it always turns out delicious. Charcoal bbq? It's the best! Let me know how your bbq turns out.

Making this for the second year in a row for our Korean BBQ party tomorrow for New Year's Eve. Thank you so much Maangchi for being such a huge part of my life and cuisine!!!!

if you rub a little vegetable oil on the sides of your measuring cup, the honey doesn't stick. It just pours out ^_^

Hi, that's for dipping sauce. Check out the recipe on my website please. More photos and how to eat Korean BBQ with lettuce and ssamjang(soybean paste dipping sauce) are posted. Happy cooking! : )

@oekakinin This marinade could be used for bulgogi, too. Can you slice your flank steak thinly? If you use thick steak, it may turn out too tough.

yes, I think most pears would work well as long as they are soft ripe.

Where can I get that specific grill? What is the brand/model?

@pinayvacavilleUSA The small grill was given to me by my friend. You may find it at an Asian store.

@ninja3014 My friend bought it for me when we went to a Korean festival event in Toronto 2 years ago. It was under $3.00! Check either Korean grocery store or Japanese store. Thanks!

Oh wow, Korean BBQ beef is one of my favorites but I never knew how it was made. You are such a good cook, I'm sure that you have a very happy family if you cook like that for them, and I knew that you would bite into the pear core as that's what I would have done too. Thanks so much for the great post :-)

When I was about 5, my father worked for a Korean family in NYC. We were invited to a feast I still have pictures of. They graciously gave him a recipe for Calbi. It's been about 30 years and we make it every summer.

yes, any ripe pear will work well. Check out my most recent recipe video "baesuk"(steamed pear). I am using a bosc pear.

Bulgogi is beef sliced thinly, marinated, and cooked. LA galbi is LA style cut beef ribs, marinated, and cooked. Both use the same marinade. So you can use this marinade for bulgogi. Check out the recipe on my website please.

Winner…good kalbi!!! I made this and cooked it at the beach for picnic lunch…..that was the best tasting food along with kimchee and rice ball thank you. You are the best!!!!! I love your personality…very meaningful and respectful to your cooking….

I love how easy u make it. When i go to my local korean bbq restaurant i have the beef galbi with the vegetarian bibimbab. Thank u for sharing

@EvannRachel in 3 weeks! I know how you feel now. Keep in touch! Visit my website and meet others who love Korean food. Check the forum.

You can use this marinade for bulgogi. Actually my next video will be blugogi. Thank you for your interest in my recipe!

can you remake this version for 2020? maybe a maangchi meat series?

Wow! Made these tonight. Best short ribs ever! 11/10. Thanks, Maangchi

@casinohijack Thank you very much for your encouraging words! Happy cooking!

@CheekyLadee09 oh, the perillla leaves? at a Korean grocery store. Check the ingredient section on my website plz. I posted the photo there. "perilla leaves"

I just finished getting my galbi and bulgogi marinated, following your recipes. I can't wait until tomorrow to eat everything 😋! Thank you!

Hi Maangchi just want to know where can i buy the grill you used for this segment? Thank you...

@MURA1243 My friend gave it to me. Check out Asian grocery stores in your area.

@riyankie02 The marinade can be used in bulgogi recipe.

Actually I've watched this video so many times and I've tried also so many times the way Maanchi shows us to marinate the beef for babecue and believe me it is sooooo delicious. Thank you Maanchi.

Watching this makes me so hungry

yes, you can use the same marinade for pork or chicken. And check out my spicy pork bbq recipe video, too. Good luck!

@nyang133 Thank you very much for your nice and encouraging comment!

Made this last night and homemade is best just like Maangchi says!!!! So so delicious 🤤

Just bought some Korean beef short ribs thank you for sharing this awesome video I will try the sauce💜💜🙌🏽👍🏽

@montybeth thank you, now I'm smiling while reading your comment!

I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed this recipe! Cheers!

great choice of tango in the background !!

I'm actually making this again tonight. It was such a hit last time with my family! I have the meat marinating right now.

You made my day! Happy cooking!

Thank you for sharing your story about LA galbi! Nice meeting you through my RU-vid channel!

Maangchi, what is that song I keep hearing in the video? I think this would make a fantastic song for dancing while the ribs chill in the refrigerator.

I made this today, it was very tasty! I had a lot of sauce left over; can I use it for other dishes? It seems a waste not to reuse it.

That was awesome!!! I enjoy how you aren't afraid to put your hands right in your food when you are cooking and also not afraid to eat on camera. You are very entertaining and I enjoyed very much!

@momo1123 I'm very happy to hear that! Cheers!

Such a nice woman, thank you for your videos.

Maangchi!!! where did you found that grill?

@jqncrr Yes, mince onion, garlic finely. Fresh garlic is more tasty. Good luck with your cooking!

sooo tasty!! this is my second time making this LA Galbi. All my family is enjoying! Thank you so much for your receipt!

I just so happen to have these marinating away in my fridge right now. I'm cooking them after I get back from the Jazz Festival.

Hi.. Maangchi..im muslim may I know what can I use to replace cooking wine

Not only do I love your recipes but I admire your cleanliness! Thank you for emphasizing each time!

awesome! Thank you for your update!

Maangchi, you didn't show me how to make the sauce, pls 😭 i'm going to make this with my friends this weekend 😍

I like ur grill machine. where did u buy this?

@dayumonica yes, of course u could use blender.

The LA style galbi was a hit with the family! The marinade for the short ribs was really easy to make and delicious, but I have to say that the ssam-jjang was particularly tasty. During these times when we can't visit our regular restaurants as often as we would like, it's been great to try out your recipes. I would say that they are better than restaurant quality!

maangchi,i think you are the double of jang geum in jewel in the palace..

Let me know how yours turns out! Happy cooking!

I love this woman.

So good! We just had it for dinner. I used pork steak instead of the ribs. it was delish and my family loved them! Even my daughter who is not a fan of meat. Yum.

So glad I found your videos! I love this recipe!!

Can I use regular apple instead of Asian pear?

try also with apple or mango instead of pear my god so yummy

Pan-frying should work well, but cook it over high heat (gas). Heat up your pan very high heat before cooking. The grill was given by my friend when I lived in Toronto Canada. Check out any Asian grocery store. Happy cooking!

Thanks Maangchi for everything you do to bring us delicious Korean food recipes. Love your hair accessory, can't tell if it's a headband or a hat but it rocks!

stay healthy maangchi!! i so love your recipe.. thank you!!

Thank you! Happy cooking!

@ItsYummyTummy check a Korean grocery store. My friend bought it for me at the dano festival in Toronto. I brought it all the way here to New York. : ) It's cheap maybe under $5.00?

@JenJK417 aww! thank you very much!

@KentoTV ooh whoo! I'm very excited for you! hope it turns out great!

Thank youuuuuuuuuuu! I've read the recipes everywhere but had no idea how to actually put everything together for the sauce. Your video rocks! Btw, love your accent :)

Check out a Korean or Japanese store in your area (kitchenware section).

@marchmallowvampyre Great! let me know how it turns out! Good luck!

@starjr00 yes, you are right. Nice meeting u!

Maangchi! It's so nice to watch you cook, thank you for uploading videos on youtube. Your spirit and excitement makes it fun for me again. :) Thank you thank you!

@RosaArizona : ) Thank you!

OMG! i've been waiting for this recipe from you for SOOOOOOO LOOOOOOOOONG!!!! TY TY TY!

I love this recipe! As a meat cutter, we call thin sliced short ribs "flanken" (not to be confused with flank steak). Just wanted to pass that along to all the viewers. I can't wait to try this recipe out. I've been wanting to try my hand at Korean cooking and I now have my new teacher! Thank you, Maangchi! You are awesome!!!! -Dan

I don't use any oil when I grill it but if you want use cooking oil. No butter.

@nelsonjr16 It's Canon VIXIA HF11. Thank you!

@iumia I'm glad to hear that!

Your recipe s simple, easy to follow and combines a fantastic set of ingredients. I taught in Korea in Kang Nam Ku for almost two years and this is one of the BEST recipes for me thus far......! Well done Ajumoni!

I love Galbi~~ Especially charcoal grilled Galbi !! 망치님 오늘도 보러들렸다가 군침만 흘리고 갑니다..ㅜ.ㅜ

Maangchi thank you soooooooooooo much for posting videos and teaching us how to cook the food I used to eat when my Korean grandma was alive!

yes, you can make bulgogi with the marinade. Use sirloin, tenderloin, or skirt steak.

I really appreciate the description and ingredients listed above. Really nice website too. I love Korean food. I haven't eaten enough in my time!

Thank you so much for posting this! I'm marinating the short ribs as we speak! so excited! yay!

@AudioCorps thank you!

I tried it and my friends liked it! Thanks for sharing this simple recipe!

Love the video and the recipe and I will be trying this tomorrow, Thanks so much for posting.

thank you so much for sharing all the Korean cooking recipe :)))
