Beef Galbi: A Contemporary Twist on a Korean Classic

Contrary to popular belief, Beef Galbi is not a traditional Korean dish, but rather a contemporary creation that has gained immense popularity in recent times. Much like the well-known LA galbi, Beef Galbi utilizes ribs nos. 6, 7, and 8, which are known for their tenderness and exceptional texture among the various cuts of ribs.

The key difference between LA galbi and Beef Galbi lies in the way the meat is prepared. While LA galbi is cut horizontally and contains several bones within the meat, Beef Galbi is cut vertically, resulting in a single long bone with the meat attached. This unique presentation allows for a maximized experience of enjoying the chewy, flavorful meat on the bone.

The grilling process is where the true magic of Beef Galbi shines. As the meat cooks, the bone’s natural flavor permeates the meat, creating a truly delectable and satisfying dining experience. The addition of grilled garlic, green onions, and rice cake sticks further enhances the overall flavor profile, making Beef Galbi a dish that is both visually appealing and exceptionally delicious.
