Complete Guide to Korean BBQ — How to Properly Eat Pork Belly and Ribs


Korean BBQ is not just a meal but an experience. The key is grilling directly at the table. Main menu items: Samgyeopsal – the most popular. Thin-sliced pork belly grilled over charcoal or gas. About 10,000-15,000 won per serving. Moksal – less fatty and more savory than samgyeopsal. Galbi – beef short ribs (more expensive) or pork ribs. Sweet marinated galbi is well-suited to foreign palates. Hangjeongsal and kkotsal – premium cuts, available at specialized restaurants. How to eat – Some places have staff grill the meat directly, while others are self-service. Once fully cooked, it’s cut with scissors.
