Can I prepare the ribs in advance?

Yes, you can cook them 1 day in advance and glaze and grill them at the moment.

Which buns go well with this recipe?

Soft buns like brioche or croissant buns work ideally.

What if I don't have gochujang?

You can use a mixture of chili powder and sweet soy sauce, although it lacks some depth.

How do I make the coleslaw less spicy?

Use less gochujang or add extra honey for a milder flavor.

Can I also toast the buns in the oven?

Yes, 3–5 min at 180 °C works fine without a barbecue.

Preparation method

How do you make this?

Prepare the ribs: Cut the confit ribs into four equal pieces and cook them for 15 minutes on a BBQ or in the oven at 140-150 °C.
Make the Korean glaze: Blend all the ingredients with an immersion blender until smooth. Remove the ribs from the BBQ, remove the bone, and coat the ribs all over with the glaze.
Caramelizing: Place the glazed ribs back on the BBQ until they are nicely caramelized.
Make the coleslaw: Cut carrot, cucumber, white cabbage, and spring onion into julienne. Mix the mayonnaise, sesame oil, rice vinegar, honey, gochujang, and sesame seeds into a dressing and mix with the vegetables.
Pickling the onion: Slice the red onion into thin rings and let soak in rice vinegar for at least 10 minutes.
Grilling the buns: Toast the croissant buns briefly on the BBQ or in a grill pan.
Assemble the burger: Spread the bottom half of the bun with gochujang mayonnaise, add the finely chopped meat, the coleslaw, and pickled onion on top. Optionally finish with extra mayonnaise and cover with the top half of the bun.

Tips

Remove the membrane from the ribs so that the glaze can penetrate better.
Apply the glaze only at the end to avoid burning.
The pickled onion adds a fresh touch that perfectly balances with the rich meat.
