How to run it
Sauce it right.
- 01
Cook the protein most of the way naked. Sauce is a finish, not a marinade.
- 02
Brush or mop it on in the last 10 to 15 minutes.
- 03
Let it tack up over the heat. Watch the sugars, they scorch fast.
- 04
Hit it again at the table. That's the coat that counts.

Momofuku Sweet and Savory Korean BBQ Sauce is a galbi-style korean bbq sauce that glazes rich, deep, and savory-sweet. It is built off the galbi marinade Momofuku runs in their own restaurants.
Momofuku layers soy, fresh ginger, pear, and miso into a sauce with a clean pinch of salt and no filler behind it. The pear brings a natural sweetness, the miso and soy load in the umami, and the ginger keeps it bright instead of heavy. There is no high fructose corn syrup in the bottle, so the flavor reads clean and deep instead of just sugary.
Brush it on short ribs, chicken, or pork over the last few minutes of the cook so the sugars set without scorching, then hit it again right off the heat. Pour it over a bowl of rice, glaze a plate of grilled beef, or run it as a dipping sauce at the table.
- Beef short ribs and steak
- Grilled chicken and pork
