I made these for the first time tonight and they were delicious! As usual, your recipes are amazing and delicious!
Great!
Oh my gosh, Maangchi this is so delicious! My skewers were too long for my pan, so I just cooked it right from the marinade and then broiled it at the end to make it extra crispy! My wife and I loved every bite. I served it with rice (mix of sushi rice and red rice), shredded cabbage salad, sliced avocado with sesame, and my well-fermented kimchi (so sour and tasty!) – your recipe, of course. Thank you so much for teaching me how delicious Korean food can be!

This is every bit as delicious as bulgogi. Good thing since beef prices are so crazy these days.
Total time grill pork is 10 mins. Pork can be overcook, will it too tough??? How will I know if pork is cooked?? Thanks
If you are unsure slice through on piece and check if its pink inside or not.
can you use anything else then chives on the side dish?
Hi Maangchi,
Would chicken be good too with this recipe?
this would be perfect with chicken!
This is a new type of “satay”. I made this along with gochujangguk. It was awesome. Thank you, Maangchi!
My mother used to make Satay Babi: my favorite. But this is very different. I shall certainly make it some day, but there are sooo many delicious recipes on this page: will keep me busy for the rest of the year, just going to start with Kimchi…
Making this tonight, my kids love anything on a skewer!
“my kids love anything on a skewer!” aww, cute~
I have used doenjang as a fish marinade many times but never used it with pork. My wife is Japanese and loves miso but I think the Korean doenjang has a heartier taste. I also really like the little chunks of bean that are always in doenjang. I can’t wait to try this recipe. Thank you Maangchi.
Good luck with making delicious pork! I think if doenjang is not available, Japanese miso will also work well.
Wow, looks so yummy! Can’t wait to try it. I do enjoy things with doenjang – I think it’s the same as miso, right?
Actually doenjang has a more earthy flavour than miso.
