Ingredients

1.5 lb pork belly (samgyeopsal)
1.5 cup wine ((red or white))
1 tsp whole peppercorns ((colored peppercorns are even better))
1 Tbsp olive oil
5 bay leaf
5 rosemary ((sprigs))

Steps:

If samgyeopsal are thick cuts, OPTIONALLY, you can score one side of the pork belly slice - across the layers.
In a bowl, add the samgyeopsal, wine, bay leaves, peppercorns and rosemary sprigs.
For a nicer presentation, roll each pork belly slice with a bay leaf in the center. Then add marinade.
Marinate for 2-3 hrs before cooking. You can leave it overnight in the fridge. For red wine marinade, do not marinade longer than 24 hrs.
Grill samgyeopsal on frying pan, table top grill pan or outdoor grill. Serve with ssamjang, ssam vegetables, kimchi and more! See my Serving Suggestions for more ideas.

HERB SAMGYUPSAL (KOREAN GRILLED PORK BELLY)

Herb Samgyupsal (Korean Grilled Pork Belly) image

I accepted samgyupsal (grilled pork belly, aka thick bacon) into my late-night diet of soju and beer outings while living in Seoul. The best thing about samgyupsal is that there is little or no marinating involved. You just need to cut it into bite-size pieces and cook it on the stovetop. Enjoy with a variety of lettuce varieties (red leaf lettuce, Boston bibb, frisee) and rice.

¼ cup soy sauce
2 tbsps rice vinegar
1 tbsp Gochujang sauce
1 tsp sesame oil
½ tsp freshly grated ginger
¼ tsp garlic powder
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
¼ cup doenjang ((Korean fermented soybean paste))

1 garlic clove (minced)
2 tbsps gochujang ((Korean red pepper paste))
2 tsps sugar
2 tsps toasted sesame seeds

1 bunch lettuce (washed and dried for wraps)
2 carrots (cut into batons)
7-8 green chilli peppers (rough dice)
1 cucumber (cut into batons)
10-12 cloves raw garlic (sliced thin)
1 large onion (cut into bite-size pieces)

Steps:

Before guests arrive to eat samgyeopsal, freeze and slice the pork belly into ¼ inch slices, then marinate for 2-48 hours, cover, and set aside on a plate. Cut and prepare vegetables and set them aside.
Whisk together all dipping sauce ingredients and portion them into small dishes for each guest.
Cook the pork belly by heating the grill pan with a small amount of toasted sesame oil for added flavour. Cover the bottom of the pan with pork belly slices or cut smaller into bite-sized pieces. Cook while turning and frequently moving to avoid sticking until both sides are crispy.
Remove cooked pork belly pieces and set them aside on a plate, or guests can move their cooked bits from the grill to their plates and eat them. Serve the samgyeopsal on lettuce as wraps with dipping sauce, other vegetables, and banchan.
