You missed the best meat, pork belly. It's best in Korea, they must have a different kind of pig that just tastes more flavorful. I'm a fan of almost all Korean food.
@@anidiotv6.996 they have animals there 😅, When I lived there, they had an outbreak of hoof & mouth disease that had some crazy protocols to contain it.
I grew up in near China town in Philly it was great living next to a whole different culture..I’ve learned a lot made good friend are the best tasting foods
Bibimbap is not a side dish. It is a whole meal in itself. You’re thinking of KimBap. Really do miss eating at the KSB‘s (Korean snack bars) on military basis. So much cheaper than eating in the States.
When I was in Korea teaching English, food everywhere (restaurants and grocery stores, as well as convenience stores) was a lot cheaper than in the US. At least in Daegu it was. But, I live in one of the cheapest states (Oklahoma) and Korea was still cheaper. That was in 2010, so maybe things have changed.
Not if the Climate change hypocrites who fly around in private jets have anything to say about it. Every year since 2020, US government shuts down 20,000 farms, and it's almost all gone. Save the cows, support your farmers.
I was an English teacher near Vancouver. Canada from 2007-2012 specifically for a Korean English academy. I got introduced to all these foods home cooked by one of the Academy's co-owners, a Korean lady, and it was phenomenal. Then came Korean fried chicken, being introduced to soju, and I was hooked.
I got to eat real, authentic Korean barbecue in South Korea itself a few times when I taught English in Daegu in 2010. It was really good and one of the highlights of my stay.
Wtf? You just completely forgot pork belly, or samgyeopsal? Unseasoned but the natural fat and meat of the pork belly naturally creates an incredible taste when grilled. It's literally one of if not the most popular meat in Korea. Cheap, easy to cook, does not need additional seasoning or marinating, cooks very quickly, and is delicious and flavorful.
I'm a public school teacher in Korea, and the school dinners are always great. It's always soem fantastic BBQ. I may be biased because I lived there for 7 years, but the city of Gwangju has the best food in the country.
Clearly the writer behind this episode loves Korean BBQ. I'm more caucasian than Casper the ghost but love Korean food so much I expanded my cable lineup to get Korean TV so I could watch cooking shows just so I could make galbitang whenever I wanted. Little did it occur to me I could find the same on UA-cam. lol
I was stationed in Hawai'i and the Korean places were always my favorites. I miss Jun. I don't remember people wrapping stuff in lettuce or cooking at the tables.
Good you mention the owner/founder of Kogi BBQ Mark Manguera, rarely media mentions him when referencing Kogi BBQ and its always accredited to Roy Choi
The last time I checked, Korea was about as far to the east of Central Asia as you can get without falling into the Pacific Ocean. So, I'm not sure how the people you mention as inventing the concept of what became KBBQ could be both 'central Asian nomads' & 'indigenous Koreans'.
If it tastes sour then it's old. Sour kimchi is best fried or boiled in its own brine with sugar and beef stock. The only flavors you should be getting from fresh kimchi is garlic, salt, tiny bit of sweet, red pepper and the cabbage itself. It starts getting a little sour after about a week and by 2 or 3 weeks its ripe for cooking.
I haven't had KBBQ, but I have had Hot Pot with a grill, and many of what is described here is included with the Hot Pot here. They're a Thai fusion restaurant, but if it's as good as the hot pots I've been to, I'd love it just as much.
I'm so happy that the Koreans stuck to their guns and didn't water down shit for anyone. Growing up in a town with a significant Korean population was a blessing for food.
Best thing about being stationed in South Korea was the amazing people and food. Outside any active duty Army base in the US you can find awesome Korean restaurants
I'm surprised the opening line is "over the last decade". I live in NYC and we've had Korean BBQ since the 80s. Are there parts of the states that didn't have Korean food since the 90s?
I hope WHF could introduce eobokjaengban (어복쟁반), some simmered North Korean beef dish. My ancestry is from today's North Korea, but I was born in Canada.
you know whats really funny, modern koreans eat more ramen than anything else in korea. i worked with a few korean students before at work and they all call their stews and such old people's food lol
Not necessarily by African-American personnels since South Koreans originally think of fried chicken as a popular American food in the 1950s-60s. First started by South Korean marketplaces around US military bases to fulfill that demand. We're talking about South Korea. It's better to have a less American point of view to understand Korean fried chicken.
There is so much that is WRONG about this video. Not all the meats are marinaded, you missed some of the best of the cuts of meats. Also Bulgogi is NOT the main part of KBBQ.
There’s a place in Broward county called Choongman Chicken. Best fried chicken ever (although it may also be the only Korean fried chicken place around these parts). I didn’t get the hype until we ate there.
First time I had Korean BBQ was early 90's back in Worcester, MA. The place was called Twins and they had tongue as an option (which was my first time trying that cut of meat). Food was terrific, but the business didn't last long...
What an odd, 1970s thing to say that "LA is primarily known for unpleasant things." The last time I checked, Southern California was one of America's most popular areas to visit, and also one of the most popular places to live. Get a grip on your LA-is-all-bad attitude.
I hope korean bbq doesnt become americanized like Chinese food. I recently ate at a korean restaurant with an excess of sugar in the kimchi. It really ruined the taste.
Hearing the narrator list off a bunch of foods I grew up on was a level of happiness I didn’t know existed.
Galbi is one of the greatest food items ever created. Thank you Korea.
Its the same meat used for Hawaiian BBQ
You missed the best meat, pork belly. It's best in Korea, they must have a different kind of pig that just tastes more flavorful. I'm a fan of almost all Korean food.
Its call higher fat content in meat. Fat equals flavour
It’s imported meat from the US since they don’t own land to make a lot of meat.
North korean food for when you need to go on a lil diet
@@anidiotv6.996 they have animals there 😅, When I lived there, they had an outbreak of hoof & mouth disease that had some crazy protocols to contain it.
Samgyeopsal is the best
You guys need to do an episode on hotteok, tteokbokki, budae jjigae, Korean Fried Chicken, and buldak ramen, plus a any other Korean food
Bulgogi tastes like happiness.
BBQ Heaven!!!!!🤗🤗🤗
It tastes like my sister
I am not Korean but I grew up in Korea Town (in L.A.) in the 80s. So Korean BBQ has been a part of life for many years.

@@MatthewTheWanderer that is very true.
드디어 이 채널에서 우리나라 고기 문화가 다뤄지는구나.! (As a Korean I am happy about this ep.!
The other narrator is great in her own way but weird history doesn't feel like weird history without this narrator
They could have Patrick Steward or Morgan Freeman narrate a video and people would still comment that they prefer the original VA.
And rightfully so.
KBBQ is not a "Fad" - Its joined the American and International landscape of BBQ,
Permanently
Not if the Climate change hypocrites who fly around in private jets have anything to say about it. Every year since 2020, US government shuts down 20,000 farms, and it's almost all gone. Save the cows, support your farmers.

Please do a video on Korean Fried Chicken and its surging popularity in the U.S. Thanks WHF!
Korean BBQ always leaves you craving for more. It's so good.
And Korean Fried Chicken is amazing. Even without sauce!
As a Korean person I gotta say his pronunciation is pretty good
Not bad, not bad. Could nitpick, but it's generally spot on. Great job!
You forgot mandu. Mandu can be filled with any meat. My wife and I love beef bulgogi mandu. They are heavenly.
Huge fan of this channel and I’ve never expected you guys to cover korean food 😂 great job!
You guys gotta follow up with "The History of Korean Fried Chicken" now. It's destiny after this drop. It's huge out here in Vancouver, Canada.
What about Korean noodles as a topic?
their glass noodles are divine
As a European I would love to learn about the difference in noodles in different countries.
I feel honored for this episode and nothing goes well with all this food than kimchi and kkakdugi.
I got to eat real, authentic Korean barbecue in South Korea itself a few times when I taught English in Daegu in 2010. It was really good and one of the highlights of my stay.
"This chicken is jooshy, tendur, full of rich ooo-mommy." - Mike Chen
It was a nice surprise to see a segment on Kogi BBQ. That was my gateway to KBBQ back in the day.
Same here, an old buddy invited me to sit down KBBQ couple yrs later in 2011.
I love bbq of every ethnicity and culture 😊
Calling kbbq a fad is disrespectful. It is a lifestyle

Korean BBQ is a gift to humanity!!! 😊
Americans: BBQ with vegetables? No way. It's a trick.
I'm Chinese and I love Korean BBQ more than Chinese food.
My wife’s the same way. Chinese but is OBSESSED with Korean food.
Im Filipino and love KBBQ more than Japanese/Thai food
Every decade seems to have its own food trend! The 70s, Mexican; the 80s, Benihana; the 90s, Thai food, etc.!
Cornstarch makes for a nice crust. I mix it with equal parts flour and fine sifted panko crumbs and then season to taste.
Roy choi is very fun to say
I was stationed in Hawai'i and the Korean places were always my favorites. I miss Jun. I don't remember people wrapping stuff in lettuce or cooking at the tables.
I had KKBQ since late 80s, then i discovered Hawaiian BBQ noticed they use Kalbi BBQ meat
I have a request for you to do a video on: The Weird History of Dad's Premium Root Beer
One of jobs is working at one of those. It's nice and the atmosphere is rather chill and laid-back.
Good you mention the owner/founder of Kogi BBQ Mark Manguera, rarely media mentions him when referencing Kogi BBQ and its always accredited to Roy Choi
This video is making me hungry! 😋

Many people find kimchi difficult to enjoy due to its sour flavor. I highly suggest pairing kimchi with BBQ, as it greatly enhances the taste.
BBQ the kimchi, it burns away the sour taste and makes it amazing.
If it tastes sour then it's old. Sour kimchi is best fried or boiled in its own brine with sugar and beef stock. The only flavors you should be getting from fresh kimchi is garlic, salt, tiny bit of sweet, red pepper and the cabbage itself.

@@cynwraeth1943 'Old'???, yo, it's fermented.
@@badhollywoodscience No, it isn't. Unless it's made the old fashioned way, which nobody does anymore, because refrigerators exist.
@@cynwraeth1943 get lrn, u dmb. Literally. Unless u thinking of different kind of ban chan.

I feel blessed with growing up with galbi at least once a week and bulgogi a few times a week.
I'm so happy that the Koreans stuck to their guns and didn't water down shit for anyone. Growing up in a town with a significant Korean population was a blessing for food.
Yup, and then there ones that do cater to non koreans when it comes to staffing.

WTF this video is like 99% content from other UA-cam channels. I bet it wasn't even approved by them all either.
its called Fair use of using borrowed content and as long you credit the original source
I'm surprised the opening line is "over the last decade". I live in NYC and we've had Korean BBQ since the 80s. Are there parts of the states that didn't have Korean food since the 90s?
Wherever there are few Korean immigrants of course
I live in South Carolina and the only reason I know this style of barbecuing is because I am into food but that trend must have missed us entirely 😅
Or you guys dont have many Koreans in your state/area, i notice narrator mention the usual US big cities, LA, San Fran, Philly, ATown, Houston,
Thanks for this! 🔥🍙🥬
I like kimchi
Can’t believe you didn’t mention samgyupsal (pork belly). Most bbq places in Korea are literally named after this meat.
I wonder if it will be the 21st century equivalent of fondue…incredibly hip and popular before falling in to obscurity
Idky but the narrator makes the video more interesting
What country last to first to use chopsticks?
I'm never getting back on my diet, am I?
I wonder if Drykks could become a thing? (It’s my version of Korean Surf&Turf)
There's a local restaurant that has a spicy pork bulgogi that is addictive. I want to live in their kitchen.
Why am I, a Mexican American, tearing up at the recognition Korean food has gotten over the years???? Korean food has my heart and Seoul 😅
Next topic pls do kebab/doner/gyros
I hope WHF could introduce eobokjaengban (어복쟁반), some simmered North Korean beef dish. My ancestry is from today's North Korea, but I was born in Canada.
I appreciate that you stay true to your format and presentation. Too many channels jump the shark and go all bonkers trying to grab subs 😢
The chef at my Korean BBQ had his thumb wrapped in cotton gauze.
I only ate the kimchi.
I love Korean BBQ, but covid killed every single one in my city. I have to drive to Toronto now if I want it.

Vid about Korean fried chicken?? I believe I learned Black GI’s brought it over to Korea during the war, correct me if I’m wrong

I had duck while in s korea and the taste still taunts me from 20+ years ago.
