Oh hell yeah! I like this GenWa KBBQ, but their staff are annoying as fuck. The quality of the meat there is pretty nice and have 25 different side dishes. Their staff is very insistent on cooking your meat for you. I'm taking it nice and slow and all of a sudden a staff would come by and pour the rest of the brisket into the grill, then quickly stir it around like soup noodle. ARGGHHH!!! I have to tell them to stop doing that shit.

I also save the nice cuts of rib for last then crank up the heat to get a nice sear. Then someone walks by and turns down my flame! I turn it back up after and throw the rib on and in like 15 secs, another bastard comes by and flips it for me. It hasn't even browned yet! I had to yank the tongs off the guys hand and tell him to leave us alone!

Now I don't even bother going. I just grab some nice cuts at H-mart and do it at home...

I hear YOU!! I've had all this happen multiple times and I've had to break-in new staff before. It's a courtesy/CS thing that is based in misogynist traditions but I won't dive into that can of worms here. The flame thing is simply being lazy so they turn it down to avoid changing grills.

I actually won't cut Kalbi till I pull the slab off the grill and let it rest a few minutes first. Most KBBQs know me enough to just leave me a set of tongs, my own scissors and a pitcher of ice water.

You are supposed to smack them with a bag of macadamia nuts.

No, they once tried to turn down the flame once and told me to go low and slow like charring the meat was bad.

I've had cheaper places snip my meat while it's still being grilled too. If it were at GenWa, I'd probably ask them to replace it since I'm paying for a set course.

I know its a CS thing, but I know how to cook damn it! I purposely move the tongs to the inside of the table so it's not easy for them to get.

Looks like I need to check out Butcher's Block. Probably grab some nice Wagyu for Mother's Day.

It could be some insano neo-Asian thing that charred meat causes cancer. Look at all the Korean, Chinese, and Taiwanese women walking around Irvine wearing Darth Vader masks.

LOL Darth Vader mask. I thought I was the only one who uses that term for those.

I brought home Phil's BBQ for my mom and she refused to eat it without scrapping off the charred stuff...

My mother thinks meat with black on the surface will give you cancer. For that matter, a bbq will give you cancer. Or microwave popcorn. Or pretty much whatever the latest email health fad/scare is.

Do you think there may be an acoustic leak from the jack hole? ~Tyll Hertsens

Not sure if I like stuffing one hole or both holes. Tending toward one hole since both holes seems kinda ghey ~Purrin

So the question is, why are people burning or steaming their KBBQ? How about cooking it properly?!

Google told me 20-30 minutes at 350F. I did 18 min at 325. Still too much.
