Tips
For best flavor, add oyster sauce and toasted sesame oil after cooking/shredding the beef.
Other lean steak options include flat cut brisket (all exterior fat removed), beef chuck (remove large chunks of fat), and top sirloin.
Ensure to add milk to the spicy cream sauce until desired consistency is achieved.
The Korean BBQ Beef can be stored frozen for future lunches throughout the week, providing 10 high-protein meals.
Recommended brand for oyster sauce is Lee Kum Kee, as it should taste very umami and salty with deep caramelized sweetness, not fishy or bitter.
The meat should fall apart easily once cooked and shredded
