Spicy Korean BBQ Pork
- 2 pounds Lean Pork (I Used Sirloin Tip)
- 1 whole Large Yellow Onion, Cut Into Eight Wedges
- 6 whole Scallions, Quartered Widthwise
- Toasted Sesame Seeds, For Garnish
- 2 whole Scallions, Chopped To 3/4", For Garnish
- Canola Oil Spray
- 3/4 cups Pineapple Juice
- 1/2 cups Applesauce (natural)
- 1/2 cups Soy Sauce
- 1/4 cups Light Brown Sugar
- 4 cloves Garlic, Minced
- 3 Tablespoons Mirin (or 1 Tablespoon Honey And 2 Tablespoons Water Mixed)
- 2 Tablespoons Oelek Sambal (Thai Chili Paste)
- 1 Tablespoon Ginger, grated
- 1 Tablespoon Sesame Oil
- 1 Tablespoon Fish Sauce (optional)
- Note: Youll need a grill wok or a wire rack to sit on top of your grill grate.
- You can also stir-fry this in a wok or cast iron skillet on the stove top.
- To aid in slicing, put the pork in the freezer for about 30-45 minutes.
- Combine all of the marinade ingredients in a large bowl and whisk well.
- When the pork is partially frozen, slice it across the grain to about a quarter inch.
- Add the pork, onions and quartered scallions to the bowl of marinade and stir to combine.
- Cover the bowl and marinate in the refrigerator for 3-6 hours.
- When you are ready to cook... Start your grill and prepare for direct cooking at medium-high heat (350-375 degrees F).
- While your grill is heating, with a slotted spoon remove the pork, onions and scallions from the marinade to a platter or baking dish, draining the excess marinade.
- Reserve one cup of the marinade.
- Spray your grill wok or wire rack well with canola oil spray then set it on your grill grate and let it preheat for 2-3 minutes.
- Once your wok/rack is preheated, add the pork and veggies and grill for about four minutes per side.
- While grilling, bring the reserved cup of marinade to a gentle boil in a sauce pan over medium heat and let it boil for five minutes.
- This kills the nasties in the marinade and allows you to use it as a finishing sauce.
- Remove the cooked pork and veggies to a platter and drizzle with the cooked marinade.
- Garnish with the sesame seeds and chopped scallions.
- Enjoy!
