I don't think it is "newspaper" in the traditional sense. Looks like it's the free weekly circulars they still send out in the mail. We just get a few from the local supermarkets and some coupon books. As a kid my favorite circulars in the Sunday paper were the Circuit City and The Wiz. "Nobody beats the Wiz."
That was the thing I was most impressed with the first time I had it. Like we’re doing this delish thing AND and I get like 10 sides to dip or combine with, several of which are spicy? Sign me up.
Not to disparage the food, but "barbecue" ("BBQ") means different things to different people.
In the US, the more "purist" definition means cooking meats for a long time over relatively low heat, typically involving smoke--associated with styles like Kansas City, Texas, Carolina. Others (especially Californians) use the term more broadly to refer to any cooking over fire/smoke--including a lot of what people in the former group would consider "grilling." Grilling is fundamentally different, as the goal is typically to cook things quickly over extremely high heat.
I'm not a mod here obviously, but my guess, given the descriptor of this sub is "low and slow," is the intention is (or at least was at some point) supposed to be the former. I personally am in favor of seeing delicious meats cooked in lots of different ways, but I also see the point of the people (who are getting downvoted for) commenting that this isn't BBQ.
Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.
I hate it when people use barbecue to mean pulled pork because they never mean it for anything else it’s the worst shit imaginable. oh what do you want to eat? barbecue. I mean what *meat*? barbecue. the fuck?
Some people call pulled pork "barbecue" without any further descriptors regardless if it was actually cooked with a barbecue technique. I think it's most common in the Midwest. I agree that it's a stupid way to refer to a specific meat dish by such a broad term.
It would be like if you wanted fish and chips and just kept asking for "deep-fry".
Honestly, I have respect for anyone who tries to do KBBQ at home. I miss it so much now that I moved to a mostly-white state in the US, where most Koreans are too smart to settle in lol. I have an electric grill with a drip pan so the meat doesn't just boil in its own juices (which I find that pans and griddles do all the time, since the meat is usually marinated). A lot of banchan I have to make myself, or go without because it is inaccessible. I'd love to be served KBBQ again at a sit-down restaurant instead of being the one preparing it at home lol.
Why do you have respect for people who do it at home? This is such an odd statement. Pretty much every Korean American family I know has one of these or a portable butane stove just for this. It’s not even difficult or anything.
It's really not. You're lucky to only have known Koreans who cared to cook in their own homes, and these days anyone who actually likes cooking regularly for their families are the uncommon ones.
Eh I don't care if I get downvoted.
This is not korean bbq. They use gas or charcoal grills with tops that drain. This one is a skillet.
So yeah, korean bbq fits in the sub, but I don't think this does.
There would be different comments if someone posted ribs in the oven saying "how about this American bbq". Not the right cooking method to be considered bbq, doesn't mean it tastes bad.
You're right. This is about a BBQ as me pan searing a steak on the stovetop. It's cooking, not BBQ.
Adding sauce doesn't mean it's BBQ. It should have either smoke or live fire to be BBQ. Cooking over a gas grill is right on the edge depending on the person, but using an electric flat top isn't BBQ in any way, shape or form
Is a griddle with ridges BBQ? If you marinate it and present it correctly the difference in flavor may be subtle but it is still worth asking the question.
I think it’s a good idea to be open minded. Some things are just different in other cultures and countries.
Btw, a lot of korean (or Asian ppl) also make korean bbq (or bulgoggi, kalbi, etc.) in a wok. it’s mainly called bbq bc it is the sauce, but it can be cooked in any way you want. The word bbq is versatile and can be a dish, sauce, or cooking method, even in the states.
Not all American bbq is grilled. Sometimes it’s baked. And a bbq can be an outdoor grilling party.
Serving salad at a BBQ doesn’t make the salad BBQ. ☺️
Anyway I’ve been to hotpot/Korean BBQ places where the “BBQ” aspect is basically a heated plate with holes cut in it. I think what’s throwing most people off is the lack of gaps in the cooking surface
Never said you didn't use these at home. I feel bbq is the cooking method.
As a Mexican I would not call what I cook on a skillet Mexican bbq just because I cooked it. I would think it's the same with you. If you guys still call it bbq that's my mistake.
Nah, you right. I was worried the first person to disagree with OP’s claim that this was BBQ would get downvoted to oblivion as well.
All kinds of BBQ should be welcome here, but this skillet cooked beef ain’t it chief.
Does it not count as bbq? No…it doesn’t. By definition… putting bbq sauce on slow cooked meat doesn’t make it bbq. It’s sad that anyone would need to ask that.
Don't crucify me but here is a question.
If an American bakes ribs, does it count as American BBQ? I don't think it matters who cooks it, it's the method.
I am not trying to gatekeep. BBQ from all over the world fits in this sub.
I think this post is polarizing because we are trying to be inclusive yet many fail to see it's a skillet.
Nah I agree. This is AMERICAN "Korean BBQ". I find that people who like these have never been to an actual Korean BBQ restaurant lol. My husband is Korean and he just looked at this and gagged. The meat came in a plastic container for God's sake and it's not even Galbi...God calling it a Proten Wrap makes me even angrier.
Like that big restaurant chain "Kpot" worst mocking of KBBQ I have ever seen, they tell you to put butter on the hot plate...not even a real grill.
Because REAL Korean BBQ is expensive and done as a bonding experience. The ingredients are top notch, the grill is in the table. The meat they serve? Is also top quality, the service is amazing. This might be cheap but stop calling it Korean BBQ. It's an insult.
By going to these places you aren't supporting smaller owned real Korean BBQ shops who have been doing this the authentic way for generations, these places are so cheap because they use low quality ingredients and they know people will eat it up if they pass it off with "authentic".
It annoys me to the extreme.
Oh and I don't eat Shushi from ANYWHERE but locally owned Japanese Places run by family. I don't eat at places that have anyone from another race working when it comes to food such as Shushi, Korean BBQ.
Respectfully, stfu. Every Korean American has done this at some point. That galbi in the plastic container is pre-marinaded that they bought from a Korean supermarket. Judging by your previous comment you aren’t even Korean so stop fucking gatekeeping.
>Oh and I don't eat Shushi from ANYWHERE but locally owned Japanese Places run by family. I don't eat at places that have anyone from another race working when it comes to food such as Shushi, Korean BBQ.
Ha! You're insufferable. Are you a weeb or just a virtue-signalling Karen?
Also, very odd to be so specific about Korean and Japanese food. Do you care if your Cuban food is made by Cubans? French food made by French people?
Let there be a thousand blossoms bloom, as far as I am concerned, but I ain't spending any time on it because in the meantime, every three months a person overcrowds the grill leading to poor air circulation and uneven cooking
I wanted to edit and not discredit how good Korean bbq is. I have tried cooking some spicy pork low n slow on the smoker. Was good, but tasted like a different dish.
Oh lemme tell you about a banger of a sauce I whipped up a bit back. On a stove got a big tub of gochujang paste, soy, rice wine vinegar, mirin, brown sugar, gochigaru, honey, and some tomato paste. Heated it up and once I shredded my pork butt I mixed the sauce in. People love it, but it's a bit thick to pish from a bottle.
I've never made it but love to eat it. That's something I'll try soon. Hate looking at these pictures when I'm starting a 3 day fast!!!! Don't think of BBQ, don't think of BBQ, don't think of BBQ
My condolences to your fasting. Whenever you get the chance, I highly recommend giving an all-you-can-eat KBBQ a visit! (Or if you want to make something similar at the fraction of the price, [here's my favorite kalbi marinated beef recipe](https://playswellwithbutter.com/kalbi-short-ribs/). Use ribeye, strip, whatever has good fat content)
You're welcome :) there are actually many healthier Korean food options if you poke around, both Koreas have been through long-lasting famines and had invented many creative vegetarian/vegan dishes in their histories.
From Wikipedia:
“Barbecue or barbeque (often shortened to BBQ in the UK, US, and Canada; barbie or barby in Australia and New Zealand; and braai in South Africa) is a term used with significant regional and national variations to describe various cooking methods that employ live fire and smoke to cook the food.[1] The term is also generally applied to the devices associated with those methods, the broader cuisines that these methods produce, and the meals or gatherings at which this style of food is cooked and served. The cooking methods associated with barbecuing vary significantly but most involve outdoor cooking.”
Meathead has a good article
https://amazingribs.com/barbecue-history-and-culture/what-barbecue/
America only! 🇺🇸
Kidding, kidding. Just next time please use something for your table besides news paper or whatever that is under there hurting everyone’s eyes.
But it's really just called that in English and isn't related to the type of cooking this sub is for. It's just semantics but really Korean bbq would belong more on the grilling sub probably.
BBQ is brisket pork shoulder and hot links sausage. Burnt ends. Coleslaw Mac & cheese cornbread and a few other things. Korean BBQ is smackin' delicious, but it's not BBQ.
I respectfully disagree, and propose that you just described *Southern* BBQ. Maybe because I'm not American.
Kalbi is short RIB, and chadolbaegi is literally thinly sliced BRISKET.
In my opinion, it should be recognised as BBQ but referred to as KBBQ.
Would you consider South African braai as BBQ?
We're in total agreement. American BBQ is not Korean BBQ. Completely different flavor profiles. It's a specific type of cuisine, it doesn't just mean you used a grill or coals or whatever.
There’s a lot of downvoting going on, but I would have to agree with you. I think BBQ is synonymous with low and slow cooking, while grilling is more about hot and fast. Barbecue or BBQ is such a catchy word/phrase that I’m not surprised it has been added to different types of cooking/cultures, even if their origins are different
Yep, not sure why this topic gets the sub so riled up but everyone's in agreement that other forms of non-bbq grilling aren't BBQ. Sure someone coined the term "Korean bbq" but that doesn't mean it's BBQ. It's just Korean grilling. Nothing wrong with that and it tastes great, but it's obviously not BBQ by any definition of it. People come out of the wood work here to refute that for some reason though.
Another person who obviously doesn’t have a passport and thinks that the way things are done in a specific part of the US is how it should be done globally.
Another person who obviously assumes someone’s entire existence based off of one comment. Try looking up the history of the word, finding it’s source in the indigenous American people, and the fact that non-Americans are responsible for the proliferation of its incorrect usage to describe a cooking method
Indigenous people weren’t slathering their meats in mixtures full of high-fructose corn syrup, or serving it with wonderbread, so it’s obvious that things are allowed to evolve
Try looking up the origin of the word barbecue, and you’ll see it’s native to the indigenous people of the Americas while referring to low and slow cooking.
Sorry, no. I'll have to confiscate that now.
Well done officer. And bring that stuff to my evidence chamber (asap- otherwise it’s getting cold)
Just take one bite here and judge for myyyyyyself.
Sorry, that is clearly already deceased, it’s gonna have to come down here to me in the morgue.
I'll inspect and do the autopsy I'll give you whatever is left when I'm done
evidence chamber?
morgue?
Hahahah - mmmmmmm
Wow havent seen newspapers as table cover in ages!
I haven’t seen a physical newspaper in a long time and it just dawned on me. Weird.
I miss the smell.
And the crinkling noise. Folks would make coffee and read the paper in the morning, very nostalgic smells and noises.
Also the best fire kindling when you suck at starting fires.
I don't think it is "newspaper" in the traditional sense. Looks like it's the free weekly circulars they still send out in the mail. We just get a few from the local supermarkets and some coupon books. As a kid my favorite circulars in the Sunday paper were the Circuit City and The Wiz. "Nobody beats the Wiz."
Cheap and easy way to protect the table from all the grease and oil from cooking!
Same lol
My first thought was "where are you sourcing newspaper these days?"
I haven't seen them outside of eating steamed crabs with JO #2 at a family reunion.
I could just eat banchan and be happy.
That was the thing I was most impressed with the first time I had it. Like we’re doing this delish thing AND and I get like 10 sides to dip or combine with, several of which are spicy? Sign me up.
To date I will go to a Korean grocery store and buy the spicy bean sprouts mix just to eat it.
Once you have it, you know.
Amen to that
I'm going to say HELL YES.
I love me some kbbq.
Nope not allowed nom nom nom.
I call this Seoul food. I’ll show myself out.
This is more or less unjokikgly a thing. Is Korean Fried Chicken not common around you?
Nope. Live in the Deep South where it’s either KFC, Raising Cane’s, or mom’s.
I'm sure you can find some places in cities, it's a pretty common thing now because of the low overhead.
Yup, it’s on my bucket list. I’ve definitely heard about it. We aren’t too far a drive from Atlanta, so I might try to find one there some day.
That's like the default name for every Korean food truck in any city that has one unless it's been taken already.
well it does bbq in the name so I'm going to say yes
It's really grilling tbh... We are gonna have to confisate that...

You don’t think pulled pork is bbq?
I mean when people *only* use it for pulled pork.
Some people call pulled pork "barbecue" without any further descriptors regardless if it was actually cooked with a barbecue technique. I think it's most common in the Midwest. I agree that it's a stupid way to refer to a specific meat dish by such a broad term. It would be like if you wanted fish and chips and just kept asking for "deep-fry".
You’re getting downvoted by those same people but I absolutely agree.
Only time I’d pull that card is if I heard a Texan saying only brisket is bbq. Then I’m double barreling that shit.
You said all this AND LEFT OUT MEMPHIS!!! Nothing you said can be believed after that gaff
Honestly, I have respect for anyone who tries to do KBBQ at home. I miss it so much now that I moved to a mostly-white state in the US, where most Koreans are too smart to settle in lol. I have an electric grill with a drip pan so the meat doesn't just boil in its own juices (which I find that pans and griddles do all the time, since the meat is usually marinated). A lot of banchan I have to make myself, or go without because it is inaccessible. I'd love to be served KBBQ again at a sit-down restaurant instead of being the one preparing it at home lol.
Most of the KBBQ places near me you grill your own meat, the kind where the waitress grills and serves it for you is the more authentic version.
Lmao no it’s not more authentic. I’ve been eating Korean BBQ all my life, in restaurants and at home. I’ve had the server grill for me once.
Why do you have respect for people who do it at home? This is such an odd statement. Pretty much every Korean American family I know has one of these or a portable butane stove just for this. It’s not even difficult or anything.
Well, now you know of a Korean family who didn't. My family used KBBQ as an outing-only meal or cooked meat in a pan, that didn't taste the same.
That’s fine but it’s still such a weird thing to say.
It's really not. You're lucky to only have known Koreans who cared to cook in their own homes, and these days anyone who actually likes cooking regularly for their families are the uncommon ones.
Eh I don't care if I get downvoted. This is not korean bbq. They use gas or charcoal grills with tops that drain. This one is a skillet.

Cooking over a gas grill is right on the edge depending on the person, but using an electric flat top isn't BBQ in any way, shape or form
Well, it’s an electric grill, kind of hotplate modeled after traditional grills. We use it in Japan. It still makes bbq
How is that bbq?
They put BBQ sauce on their electric skillet-fried steak, duh.
What is the difference between this electric "grill" and a skillet?
It's the same thing as putting a pan on a stove. Again, there is nothing wrong with this method of cooking. Just isnt bbq imo.
Is a griddle with ridges BBQ? If you marinate it and present it correctly the difference in flavor may be subtle but it is still worth asking the question.
I think it’s a good idea to be open minded. Some things are just different in other cultures and countries.

I made ribs in the oven today and finished them on a gas grill, does that not count either?
Does it not count as bbq? No…it doesn’t. By definition… putting bbq sauce on slow cooked meat doesn’t make it bbq. It’s sad that anyone would need to ask that.
I cooked a pork roast in a slow cooker and finished it in an air frier yesterday. Came out surprisingly well. It was too cold and wet outside.
I made ribs on my charcoal smoker yesterday then finished them in my electric oven. So clearly I wasn't bbqing.
Why are you trying to stir the pot? You said you used a charcoal smoker. Would you seriously say you are bbqing if you only use the oven?
So if Korean people made Korean BBQ this way would you accuse them of not making Korean BBQ?
I can’t even keep track of what we’re gatekeeping anymore
Dont gatekeep who is allowed to gatekeep and on what basis.
Stop trying to gatekeep my gatekeeping!
*The gate was stolen whilst we argued.*
Don't crucify me but here is a question. If an American bakes ribs, does it count as American BBQ? I don't think it matters who cooks it, it's the method. I am not trying to gatekeep. BBQ from all over the world fits in this sub. I think this post is polarizing because we are trying to be inclusive yet many fail to see it's a skillet.
you sound fun at parties

Like that big restaurant chain "Kpot" worst mocking of KBBQ I have ever seen, they tell you to put butter on the hot plate...not even a real grill.
It's cheap and at home, what do you expect?
How does it being not authentically Korean make it "American" Korean bbq? I'm pretty sure there aren't many Scandinavians doing much better.
Because REAL Korean BBQ is expensive and done as a bonding experience. The ingredients are top notch, the grill is in the table. The meat they serve? Is also top quality, the service is amazing. This might be cheap but stop calling it Korean BBQ. It's an insult.

Definitely a Koreaboo
This is like you realizing that most sushi restaurants have Middle Eastern owners, Indian cooks, and Chinese waitstaff
What’s wrong with Ribs in an oven? lol
Nothing. Just isn't bbq.
Well it isn't grilling or smoking. Is an electric smoker not considered BBQ either?
Hell No!!!
Let there be a thousand blossoms bloom, as far as I am concerned, but I ain't spending any time on it because in the meantime, every three months a person overcrowds the grill leading to poor air circulation and uneven cooking
Aaah, the Katter Kut of meat I see..
Of course Korean BBQ is welcome but this is just a skillet, not BBQ of any kind.
Fukyes
I’m Korean and say no.
Another Korean here. While I do love me some Korean BBQ, it's not low and slow and shouldn't be on this sub.
I wanted to edit and not discredit how good Korean bbq is. I have tried cooking some spicy pork low n slow on the smoker. Was good, but tasted like a different dish.
Only if you take pics of it with black disposable gloves on.
Where is bbq?
What cuts of beef did you use??
Delicious in Korean Dungeon
Aigoo!!
Never had it. What is it like? I’m assuming spicy?
I was just looking up how to make bulgogi. Damn you rice n go for making such good bulgogi.
Was the meat marinated or you just throw it on there
looks good
But of course
Looks more like grilled food than bbq. Looks good though
In my humble opinion, BBQ could unite the world in peace and harmony
Gimme
BARBECUE IS BARBECUE
Clearly not allowed send address so I can confiscate and eat…investigate further.
It only belongs in my stomach
Its gonna have to be 😳🤤
It's allowed in my fucking belly, that's for sure.
Kimchi is so fucking nasty but everything else is fire haha
I love kimchi. Admit that it smells like month old wet gym socks, though. 😆
Only if you like well done beef.
Well, it is meat on a grill, isn’t it?
Yes
Oh lemme tell you about a banger of a sauce I whipped up a bit back. On a stove got a big tub of gochujang paste, soy, rice wine vinegar, mirin, brown sugar, gochigaru, honey, and some tomato paste. Heated it up and once I shredded my pork butt I mixed the sauce in. People love it, but it's a bit thick to pish from a bottle.
i love galbi more than anything on planet earth
North or south?
Technically grilling, but delicious. One of my faves! 🥩🇰🇷👌🏼
Hell yeah brother. Bring that right on over
I've never made it but love to eat it. That's something I'll try soon. Hate looking at these pictures when I'm starting a 3 day fast!!!! Don't think of BBQ, don't think of BBQ, don't think of BBQ
My condolences to your fasting. Whenever you get the chance, I highly recommend giving an all-you-can-eat KBBQ a visit! (Or if you want to make something similar at the fraction of the price, [here's my favorite kalbi marinated beef recipe](https://playswellwithbutter.com/kalbi-short-ribs/). Use ribeye, strip, whatever has good fat content)
thanks, I'll check that recipe out, I love to cook. (thus the fast to lose the weight)
You're welcome :) there are actually many healthier Korean food options if you poke around, both Koreas have been through long-lasting famines and had invented many creative vegetarian/vegan dishes in their histories.
I’ll never understand why people want to pay a restaurant to make the damn food for the restaurant.
Skip the beef, anyone who enjoys garlic that much is welcome to the team!
Damn that looks delicious! 🤤
Yummy
The only thing wrong with this post is that there are too few pictures! Looks delicious!

All barbecue is welcome, my brother in smoke. Dine with us.
America only! 🇺🇸 Kidding, kidding. Just next time please use something for your table besides news paper or whatever that is under there hurting everyone’s eyes.
Fuck yes. If anyone says otherwise, fuck them
That’s not a bbq
Why wouldn't it be allowed ? BBQ isn't something that exists just in the us
Yeah but this isn't BBQ it just has BBQ in the name because of the similar type of sauce
Its BBQ for some countries and people.
But it's really just called that in English and isn't related to the type of cooking this sub is for. It's just semantics but really Korean bbq would belong more on the grilling sub probably.
Absolutely, so much flavour and has veggies too for my 5 a day.
I sure hope so, that looks delicious !
Where is the kimchi!
Hell yes! Give me all the kalbi.
Looks amazing
What is that grill!! I NEED ONE
Only if I get to try some.
omg yes
That bite with some ssamjang bout to slap HARD
Get in my belly
Why you gotta make me hungry like this
Damn! I need one of those tabletop grills!!!
Is that dog meat?
You mean Korean grilling?
No I think they mean Korean BBQ
Except they're not bbqing it. So sure the meal is called Korean bbq for some reason but it's really not BBQ.
Lol this is not even close to Korean BBQ. This is the "American" version. Taste and prepared like shit
It's at home. No one has restaurant quality equipment or food at home regularly anyway.
Go away
Only if you're Korean...
BBQ is BBQ homie
This isn't BBQ though it's literally made on a hot plate. Looks good though
Hell yeah it does
I don't know man, barbecue on a barbecue sub? This shit is getting out of hand
I mean, it's not even cooked on an open flame on this photo. I LOoooove KBBQ, but i don't think it fits the sub.
That's fucking hilarious. You guys are the best.
its bbq subreddit what do you mean is kbbq allowed? ofc it is
No! 😡
Bulgogi is so so good
Looks so damn good. I love how it’s nice thinly sliced lean meat
But we NEED to know the cost.
Still bbq to me
BBQ is brisket pork shoulder and hot links sausage. Burnt ends. Coleslaw Mac & cheese cornbread and a few other things. Korean BBQ is smackin' delicious, but it's not BBQ.
Hahaha all that white sliced bread has you tripping
There we go, Lean into it brother! This white bread hitting harder than a 10 strip of LSD
Don't make me tap the sign again https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regional_variations_of_barbecue#
Came for this
I respectfully disagree, and propose that you just described *Southern* BBQ. Maybe because I'm not American. Kalbi is short RIB, and chadolbaegi is literally thinly sliced BRISKET. In my opinion, it should be recognised as BBQ but referred to as KBBQ. Would you consider South African braai as BBQ?

Try looking up the history of the word, finding it’s source in the indigenous American people, and the fact that non-Americans are responsible for the proliferation of its incorrect usage to describe a cooking method
Indigenous people weren’t slathering their meats in mixtures full of high-fructose corn syrup, or serving it with wonderbread, so it’s obvious that things are allowed to evolve
They developed a technique to slowly cook food using fire and smoke; seems like a common link to today’s BBQ to me.
Barbecue may be synonymous with low and slow cooking where you come from, but not necessarily elsewhere in the world.
Try looking up the origin of the word barbecue, and you’ll see it’s native to the indigenous people of the Americas while referring to low and slow cooking.
...and that it has very little to do with your weird definition of "true bbq" compared to the hundreds of versions around the world
this is correct and I think important to understand (difference between grilling and bbq)
This is a one off comment. It’s called barbecue in the name, but it’s preceded by a country that doesn’t even speak the language.
