Instant Pot Short Ribs (Galbi Jjim) recipe is here!! YAY!! Which means...YES - I got my Instant Pot!!!

Actually, I got it almost a month ago...😉 but I was so busy with travel and consulting for a new restaurant opening, the instant pot sat sadly on my counter all this time...in case you don't know what Instant Pot is - it is a slow cooker + pressure cooker + rice cooker all rolled into one. Go to Instant Pot site for more info and see this review.

However, I hope you will continue reading cause it may get you to start thinking about this new appliance called Instant Pot.

Kalbi or Galbi (Korean Short Ribs), however you want to spell it, is simply the best way to eat short ribs on the BBQ.

I don't know why I never wrote a separate post just on Kalbi. I wrote a Summer BBQ Party post some time ago and shared a Kalbi recipe there but I just don't have a good explanation why I never posted a stand alone one. In addition to the fact that this post has my latest recipe for Kalbi that uses red wine instead of rice wine and onions instead of kiwi, I will also show you how to grill Kalbi in the oven using the broiler, in case you don't want to grill on a real BBQ.

Kalbi memories?? Haha.. Yes....Grilling Kalbi outside in our backyard or at our farm in Icheon...  was probably one of the happiest moments of my childhood. You know me, happiness is ALWAYS linked with food.. HAHAHA..

This Instant Pot Yukgaejang recipe was requested to me by my daughter during my recent Thanksgiving visit to the east coast. Oh, and yes, I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!!

I had a lovely time visiting her and took a nice break from working. She is having a wonderful time in grad school and has grown up to be a loving, kind and confident young woman. So proud of her for handling not only her school work but also cooking her meals and taking good care of herself. 💕Enjoy this soup J! LOVE YOU!!! ❤️

Don't have an Instant Pot? That's OK - 

I already have a regular Yukgaejang recipe that you can make on your stovetop so please check that out if you don't have an Instant Pot. But even if you make it on the stovetop, you may want to try making the seasoning of this recipe - just to see which style you like better.

Bulgogi Hot Pot (Bulgogi Jeongol 불고기 전골 )

Bulgogi Hot Pot has many names in Korean. Bulgogi Jeongol (불고기 전골), Yaetnal Bulgogi (옛날불고기), and Bulgogi Ttukbaegi (불고기뚝배기). They all basically refer to bulgogi, vegetables and glass noodles cooked in a steel hot pot right at the table or that comes boiling hot in a stone pot.

Jeongol 전골 is a Korean style hot pot that is cooked at the table where a combination of ingredients (usually a mix of meat/seafood and vegetables) are cooked in broth. Jeongol including this Bulgogi Hot Pot was traditionally served in the palace and is part of Korean Royal Cuisine (궁중음식 Gungjung Eumsik). And there's a separate name for the kind of pot used which is wide and shallow: Jeongol Naembi 전골냄비.

Galbitang (Korean Short Rib Soup) cooked in Instant Pot in just 30 minutes!

Is that possible?? Korean Galbitang soup usually takes hours to boil on a regular stove stop but can that same soup be ready to eat in just 30 minutes after you start cooking??!! (Disclaimer - This is in addition to soaking ribs in water for 30 min so total actual cooking time is about 1 hour.) Now, usually, when the word 'Instant' is said with food, to me, it basically means 'not-so-yummy' food but probably really convenient and quick to make. But this Instant Pot Galbitang was really amazing!! My husband liked it so much that we made it twice in one week. And normally, I would not like making the same thing that often but I liked making the Galbitang in the Instant Pot so much (OMG, it's SOOO EASY!!) I did not mind at all!

Now, if we were 20 years younger and we didn't have to worry about things like cholesterol and gaining weight, we probably would be making this and eating it all the time.
