Everything served together on some rice. Definitely something to do outside!

Got the Weber nice and hot, put about 1/4 cup of oil in the wok and let it rip. The bulgogi came from Zion Market pre-marinaded. Then heated oil in a large chefs pan on the camp chef double burner and fried the dumplings. We took advantage of the indoor kitchen to blanch the bok choy and stir in the sauce.

Brought it all together and chowed. Can't believe I'm saying this but it was a nice light meal.

Man, I've got a great friend group of foodies who are all very diverse and all great cooks. I'm talking Italians, Germans, Colombians, Caribbean, and they all think I can hold my own in the kitchen pretty well.

But you guys make me feel SO inadequate every time I log on this site!!!

The level of skill on this little site is amazing! And I love learning from you all!

Great job, philpom philpom !
 
Very interesting dish! I’ve never had the stuff before but your pics makes myself think there’s many adventures with each bite! Congrats

Beautiful dish! Bet those flavors rocked! Congrats on making the carousel!
So unexpected, cool!

The beef and Bok Choy were very tender, the fried pork dumplings gave you something to bite in to and the sweet/tangy sauce brought it all together.

You are very lucky, I'd love to have a close group of friends that rocked the kitchen, I can imagine the possibilities! (Along with the weight gain)

We eat in almost exclusively and over time that really helps grow the toolbox and skill set.... a long time!

Thank you

Definitely a dish that is easy to enjoy by a broad spectrum of folks, try something similar, sure to be tasty and satisfy!

I love beef bulgogi but I am too lazy to make a fine looking dish of it like you did up above!

FWIW - Trader Joe's has a frozen version of Beef Bulgogi that is fairly decent - but not great.

It's a pretty easy dish, you could do the dumplings in an air fryer or even the oven to simplify of course hot deep oil is hard to beat on flavor!

We find ourselves in a Trader Joe's every now and again so we might try it but honestly H-Mart and Zion Market are both closer and loaded with amazing fresh food. If not familiar just imagine a modern grocery store except the items appear odd and you can't read any sign or packaging. You mostly need to know exactly what you're after.
