Korean Ground Beef is inspired by Korean Barbecue or bulgogi. This staple of Korean Cuisine is spicy and savory. The marinade normally used in bulgogi consists of brown sugar and soy sauce. I simply replaced traditional Korean barbecue ingredients with some paleo friendly ones. These were coconut aminos and some honey. This is a similar marinade as the one used for my Korean BBQ.
