Get ready to embark on an exciting culinary adventure to Korea without even packing a suitcase! In this hands-on, interactive class, you’ll dive deep into the rich flavors and techniques of authentic Korean BBQ, all right here in Knoxville. Korean BBQ is not just a meal—it’s a social dining experience that brings friends and family together around the grill. Picture this: tender marinated meats sizzling over an open flame, the air filled with mouthwatering aromas, and a colorful spread of vibrant side dishes ready to be devoured.So, what exactly is Korean BBQ? It’s a traditional style of dining where thinly sliced meats—such as the sweet and savory bulgogi (marinated beef) or the smoky, melt-in-your-mouth kalbi (short ribs)—are grilled at the table. Korean BBQ restaurants typically feature grills built right into the tables, either gas, charcoal, or portable stoves, allowing you to cook your meat to perfection. But the experience doesn’t stop there! Alongside your perfectly grilled meats, you’ll enjoy a variety of banchan, small side dishes that are bursting with flavor, like spicy kimchi, crunchy pickled radish, or tangy seasoned spinach. Together, it’s a flavor-packed feast that’s both satisfying and fun.
In this class, under the expert guidance of Chef John Alunni, you’ll learn how to master Korean BBQ at home. From marinating meats to making your very own house-made kimchi, you’ll explore the essential flavors that make Korean cuisine so irresistible. You’ll even prepare banchan—those bite-sized delights that add layers of texture and taste to every bite. By the end, you’ll have all the skills you need to host your very own Korean BBQ party, complete with delicious grilled meats and an impressive spread of homemade sides!
