Korean BBQ ─ Master Your Grill in Seven Sauces

A casual and practical guide to grilling with Korean-American flavors from chef Bill Kim of Chicago's award-winning bellyQ restaurants, with 80 recipes tailored for home cooks with suitable substitutions for hard-to-find ingredients.

Born in Korea but raised in the American Midwest, chef Bill Kim brings these two sensibilities together in Korean BBQ, translating Korean flavors for the American consumer in a way that is friendly and accessible. This isn't a traditional Korean cookbook but a Korean-American one, based on gatherings around the grill on weeknights and weekends. Kim teaches the fundamentals of the Korean grill through flavor profiles that can be tweaked according to the griller's preference, then gives an array of knockout recipes for feeding friends and family, such as Hoisin and Yuzu Edamame, Kimchi Potato Salad, and Kori-Can Pork Chops.

Award-winning chef BILL KIM got his start in the restaurant industry and honed his culinary skills at world-renowned establishments Charlie Trotter's and Le Lan. Chef Kim would eventually venture out on his own in 2008, bringing his imaginative Asian-inspired cuisine to his highly acclaimed Chicago restaurants Urbanbelly, bellyQ, and Belly Shack.
