Bulgogi Burgers

Bulgogi Burgers

My clan has been playing with variations on the classic burger for years and a few combinations have made it to the top of the list.  The Korean inspired bulgogi burger is a go-to when we are grilling.

The burger combines the crunch of scallions with the umami from soy sauce, the nutty presence of sesame oil, garlic, ginger and a touch of sweetness from Palm or brown sugar

I’ve cooked these as sliders and full on burgers.

Serve with a sesame bun and top with kimchi or Cucumber Scallion Pickle
