Kogi BBQ recipe rip-off: Korean kalbi tacos

Recipe for kalbi tacos with Korean BBQ sauce and slaw.
This will yield 12-15 tacos if using normal sized corn tortillas. With mini corn tortillas (like I used in the video), it would yield about twice as many. This should easily serve 4, especially if there is at least one side dish.
Kalbi:
2 lbs. flanken ribs
1 kiwi
3/4 cup soy sauce
2 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp honey
2 tbsp sesame oil
5 cloves garlic, chopped
5 green onions, green part only
1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds

BBQ sauce:
3 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp gochujang
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 tsp sesame oil
1 tsp rice vinegar

Slaw:
2 cups Napa cabbage
3 cups romaine lettuce
1-1/2 tbsp soy sauce
1/2 tbsp rice vinegar
1 clove garlic, chopped
2 serrano peppers, seeded and chopped
2 tsp minced ginger
1/4 cup cilantro
5 green onions (white parts only)
2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds

this recipe came out fantastic. thanks so much! i actually bought a tub of gochujang last week and when i got home saw your last post. bummer, but it wasn't too salty for me. an endless supply of these tacos and sriracha are all i really need in life. have you seen anyone do any spicy pork renditions yet? thats my fave taco when i have actual kogi truck food.

@ksgregerous I did a search for "Kogi spicy pork recipe," and one of the top results was a recipe for the Blackjack Quesadillas, which includes a recipe for the pork. It's a pretty interesting recipe (a QUART of gochujang??), but I'm sure it would turn out great.

Just made this recipe for the second time a few hours ago for a work bbq. They turned out fucking amazing and they were the first thing gone. When making it, be sure to taste and adjust the flavors of the marinade and barbecue sauce. The flavor of the barbecue sauce can vary a lot depending on what kind of gochujang you're using. Some gochujang is extremely salty (avoid these) and some is hot and slightly sweet.

@FastJohnnyNardGard I'm glad to hear you've had success with this recipe.

As far as the gochujang goes, the kind I have is really salty, and it can make the sauce a little too intense. After I made this video, I found a product at Whole Foods called Annie Chun's Go-Chu-Jang sauce. It's pretty much exactly like the prepared barbecue sauce in this recipe, and I'd actually recommend that people use it instead of buying a tub of gochujang paste.

It's Kogi like Yogi NOT Koji like Yoji bear.....

[zacharyzachary]

@omyang Yeah, right after I made the video I watched something else and realized that I had mispronounced it. It probably comes from bulgogi/bul kogi/etc. I suppose I should have done 2 minutes worth of research before making my video, but whatever. My friends in LA called it "Koji," so I assumed that was how it was pronounced.
