Notes
Re: BBQ Sauce – I found a Korean BBQ sauce at local grocery and it was only $2-3. If you want to be super authentic – try the Bull Head BBQ.
Re: Beet juice or red food coloring – this is completely optional and is SOLELY to give it the pink/red color. I added a few drops of red food coloring at the end of the marinade .
