Marinated in a rich blend of soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and sesame, these beef strips are grilled to perfection. They are juicy, caramelized, and packed with umami goodness. Whether you are making this for a backyard BBQ or a quick weeknight dinner, this recipe delivers big flavors with minimal effort. Let us fire up the grill!

Why Grilled Korean BBQ Beef Strips?

Korean BBQ relies on balance: savory, sweet, smoky, and a little bit of heat. By grilling the beef, you get that perfect char that improves all the flavors in the marinade. Plus, it is a quick cook, meaning you can have a flavorful dish on the table in no time.

Grilling thin beef strips can be tricky since they cook fast and can easily fall through the grates. That is where the Braize Adjustable Grill Basket and Braize Kabob Grilling Basket come in handy. These baskets keep the beef secure, allow for even cooking, and make flipping easy. No more worrying about losing your perfectly marinated meat to the flames!

Ingredients

For the Beef & Marinade:

• 1 ½ pounds beef strips (flank steak, ribeye, or short rib, thinly sliced)
• ½ cup soy sauce

Instructions

1. Marinate the Beef

1. In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, gochujang (if using), rice vinegar, and black pepper.

2. Lightly oil the grates or place the Braize Adjustable Grill Basket to prevent sticking.

3. Grill the Beef Strips

1. Place the beef in the grill basket to ensure even cooking and prevent small pieces from falling through the grates.
2. Grill for about 2-3 minutes per side, flipping once, until slightly charred and cooked to your preferred doneness.

4. Serve and Enjoy

1. Transfer the grilled beef strips to a serving platter.
2. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
3. Serve hot with steamed rice, kimchi, or fresh lettuce wraps for an authentic Korean BBQ experience.
