Daeji Galbi (Marinated Pork Ribs)

Daeji Galbi is pork marinated with sweet and salty seasoning based on soy sauce.

To be exact, Daeji Galbi is about the meat attached to the ribs of pigs, and Moksal is used because the amount of meat attached to the ribs of pigs is small due to the popularity of Samgyeopsal in Korea.

In the past, Daeji Galbi was more popular than Samgyeopsal, but now it has given way to Samgyeopsal.

• Samgyeopsal
• Moksal
• Hangjeongsal

Daeji Galbi doesn’t cook well at home.
The reason is that Daeji Galbi restaurants have a secret recipe for seasoning.

Restaurants that sell pork belly also sell Daeji Galbi, but it is recommended to try it at restaurants that sell only Daeji Galbi.

It will not be easy because the number of Daeji Galbi restaurants is gradually decreasing.

If you visit a meat restaurant (Gogigib) that sells Samgyeopsal and Daeji Galbi also sells it, it is recommended to order only one serving of Daeji Galbi after eating Samgyeopsal.

It consists of flesh attached to pork ribs.
However, as mentioned above, due to the popularity of Samgyeopsal, there are not many cases of meat attached to pork ribs.
It can be seen that pork ribs are pasted with Moksal.

Daeji Galbi burns well when grilled because it is seasoned.
If you need to be careful when grilling, don’t burn it.

Daeji Galbi is sweet and salty, so it is recommended to eat it wrapped in vegetables such as lettuce.
