Samgyeopsal is the best cut of meat for Korean BBQ. It is a thick cut of pork belly that is marinated in a special sauce before being grilled. The best thing about samgyeopsal is that this cut of pork meat is very juicy and flavorful that even when it's not marinated, it will still taste great.

Think pork belly, short rib, brisket or beef tongue. By cooking these cuts over a gas grill or fried on a pan, you're able to get an even more robust flavor! Korean BBQ is also known for its distinctly sweet taste, calling for ingredients like soy sauce, sugar, garlic, sesame and oil.

The marinades and dipping sauces are rich and filled with umami. It's the perfect marriage of meat, marinate, and fat. A Korean barbecue feast includes all kinds of textures — chewy and crunchy — and tastes: sweet, savory, spicy, sour, and bitter. Korean barbecue is a feast for the senses.
