The Korean wave has taken our little island city by storm in recent years, what with pretty boy boy and girl bands and of course delicious Korean BBQ I can never get enough of. Whenever we are at a Korean BBQ joint, we tend to grill our meats according to how we like them to be. But are we really grilling the right way?
Expecting the server to keep cooking for you
In certain, more high-end Korean BBQ joints, the server may start the grilling process for you and perhaps even go as far as flipping the meats for you when they are about right. However, we shouldn’t be taking this service for granted. If the meat starts smelling slightly burned, or looks cooked about right, you can take the initiative to either flip it or take it off the heat.
Let the meat continue to stay on the fire even after they are done
Once the meats are cooked, it’s time to take them off the heat. But if your plate is full to bursting and you know you are not going to be able to clear off some space for these already ready-to-eat meats, it’s best to put them in the side of the grill where they can be kept warm but not overcook.
Grill the meats that are not marinated first
This is to ensure that the sauces from the marinated meats do not get soaked up into the ones that are not. Doing this will make sure you get to taste the best out of both the marinated and unmarinated cuts you have chosen.
Cook the pork and chicken first, then the beef
Beef cooks faster than the other two meats so it makes sense that you should start grilling as much pork and chicken first before you attack the beef. This works best in cases when the table is filled with hungry people and the beef can be used to tide the hungry people over until the rest of the meats are ready.
Don’t be shy to ask the server to change your grill plates
It’s perfectly fine to ask the server to change your grill plates in between grills. You don’t have to do it after you have grilled each different kind of meat but once the grill plate starts looking a little grimy, it’s a good time to do so. Doing this periodically will ensure that your meats will retain their true flavour after they are cooked and will also prevent burnt bits from sticking to them which can be pretty nasty to taste and smell and also bad for your health.
