Juicy, flavorful Korean BBQ beef layered over fluffy rice with all the toppings — this Korean BBQ Beef Rice Stack is quick, satisfying, and perfect for a weeknight dinner or impressive meal prep.

Ingredients

For the Korean BBQ Beef:

• 1 lb beef sirloin or ribeye, thinly sliced
• ¼ cup soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar

For the Rice Stack:

• 2 cups cooked white or jasmine rice
• ½ cup kimchi (optional but recommended)
• 2 green onions, sliced
• 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
• 1 tablespoon sriracha or gochujang (for heat, optional)
• Fried egg (optional, for topping)

Instructions

1. Marinate the Beef:

In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and rice vinegar.

Add the thinly sliced beef to the marinade and toss to coat. Let sit for 15–30 minutes, or up to 1 hour for maximum flavor.

2. Cook the Beef:

Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.

Add the marinated beef (in batches if necessary) and cook for 2–3 minutes per side, or until browned and caramelized. Remove from heat.

3. Build the Rice Stack:

Divide the cooked rice between serving bowls or plates.

Top with cooked Korean BBQ beef, kimchi, green onions, and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.

Add a drizzle of sriracha or gochujang for spice, and a fried egg on top for extra richness if desired.

Serving Suggestions:

✅ Serve with steamed veggies or a side salad for a complete meal.
✅ Great for meal prep — keep rice and beef separate and assemble when ready to eat.
