  • 2 tbsp gochujang
  • 3 tbsp sesame oil
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)

Instructions

  1. Season the chuck roast generously with salt and black pepper. Chop vegetables into the specified sizes.
  2. Heat sesame oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned chuck roast. Sear on all sides until browned, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove from the pot and set aside.
  3. In the same pot, add garlic, ginger, soy sauce, gochujang, honey or brown sugar, grated fruit, and rice vinegar. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
  4. Return the seared chuck roast to the pot along with carrots, potatoes, onion, and optional radish. Ensure everything is submerged in sauce.
  5. Cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. Let it cook slowly for about 4 hours or until the meat is tender.
  6. Once cooked, remove from heat. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
