Korean Grilled Pork Belly (Samgyeopsal)

By Tasty35 min4 servings

Can’t get enough of BTS? Try one of Suga’s favorite foods: Korean grilled pork belly (samgyeopsal). It’s simple, quick, and packed with flavor. Try a bite with a slice of garlic, jalapeño, and the ssamjang dipping sauce; it’s delicious!

Instructions

  1. 1

    Make the ssamjang: In a medium bowl, stir together the soybean paste, chile paste, mirin, sesame oil, garlic, and sugar.

  2. 2

    Make the salt & pepper sesame oil: In a small bowl, stir together the salt, sesame oil, and pepper.

  3. 3

    Heat a Korean barbecue griddle or large pan over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, rub a piece of pork belly around the pan to grease with the melted fat, then arrange the pork belly in the pan in a single layer, working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Cook until the pork belly is golden brown and crispy and the internal temperature reaches at least 145°F (63°C), 2–3 minutes per side.

  4. 4

    Cut the pork belly into bite-size pieces using kitchen shears, then arrange on a plate with the perilla leaves, red leaf lettuce, jalapeños, and garlic. Serve with the ssamjang and salt & pepper sesame oil.

  5. 5

    Enjoy!
