1. *Cook's Note: This can be done in a regular bowl or a hot stone bowl.
2. If it's in a hot stone bowl, the rice becomes crunchy because it's still cooking.
3. Put cooked rice in large slightly shallow bowl.
4. Place bulgogi (with juices from cooked meat) and veggies on top of rice but place separately so you can see each ingredient beautifully placed on rice.
5. Put egg on top.
6. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and drizzle with sesame oil and soy sauce.
7. When ready to eat, mix all ingredients together with some gochuchang paste, to taste.
8. The bibimpap should be moist and not dry.
9. Add more sesame oil and gochuchang paste, to taste.
10. 1 pound rib-eye
11. Marinade:
12. 1/2 cup soy sauce
13. 1 Korean pear or Asian pear, grated with juices
14. 2 tablespoons finely chopped garlic
15. 1/2 small white onion, grated or sliced
16. 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
17. 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
18. 1 tablespoon honey
19. 2 tablespoons sesame seeds, toasted
20. 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil

22. 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
23. 2 green onions, thinly sliced
24. 1 (20-ounce) bottle lemon-lime soda, optional (recommended: Sprite or 7-Up)
25. Place rib-eye in freezer for about 30 minutes so that it is easier to thinly slice.
