Equipment

Large Bowl
Bamboo Skewers
Grill

Ingredients

1½ pounds sirloin steak cut against the grain into thin (about 1/4") slices
½ cup rice vinegar or pear juice (1 4 oz. bottle of pear juice from the baby food aisle is perfect and cheap)
½ cup low sodium soy sauce (regular soy sauce makes it taste vaguely like beef jerky)
2 Tablespoons brown sugar
2 Tablespoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon sriracha chili sauce
1½ teaspoon sesame oil

Instructions

Combine rice vinegar or pear juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, chili sauce, and sesame oil in a large bowl.
Add sliced steak. Marinate at room temperature for 1 hour or up to 8 hours in the refrigerator.
Preheat the grill. While the grill is heating, thread the steak pieces onto bamboo skewers.
Cook over medium-high heat for about 3-4 minutes per side, being careful not to let the meat get too cooked.
Serve immediately; serves 4-6.

Notes

Other ways to cook Korean BBQ Beef

Broil: Broil the steak on low for about 2-3 minutes on each side. I usually do this on a cookie sheet.
Bake: Bake at 325 degrees for about 10-15 minutes on each side, or until you reach desired doneness.
Saute: I like to make mine in a pan, because I can see a little better, how well they are done. I don’t usually keep them on the skewers, instead, I take them off, and move the little pieces around the pan for about 7 minutes, flipping back and forth.
