I have become enamored with the following Korean Style BBQ marinade.
So far;
1) I have used it to marinade steaks for the grill.
2) Last night I added it to a pound of hamburger (with a couple of fistful of panko breadcrumbs to absorb the excess liquid) and tonight I just grilled up a bunch of awesome burgers (that went well with Dead Guy.)
3) And memorial day weekend I tripled the recipe, marinated a huge porkloin in it and roasted that to spicy perfection.
I haven't tried this with chicken yet, but believe you me, I will...
This recipe is for a pound of meat, so you need to up it per pound...But Don't up the amount of sambal oelek/Thai chile paste exponentially...It will kill you!
When I did the pork loin it was over 3 pounds, so I tripled the recipe including the chili paste... big mistake. Next time I'll simply double it for every 4 pound of meat I'm marianting...
Here it is...
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons Mirin rice wine, white wine, or sake (optional)
1 1/2 tablespoons sambal oelek or Thai chile paste
1 teaspoon minced peeled fresh ginger
1 teaspoon dark sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
3 garlic cloves, minced
(optional) 1/2 tsp fish sauce if you have it.
That's it...Just put it into a baggy and dump in your meat and let sit overnight...If you are mixing it into hamburger you will need to dump some sort of bread crumd/stale bread to help absorb the liquid into the meat.
Enjoy
