Neobiani (broiled beef)
Neobiani, a favorite dish of royal families in Korea, is the broiled lean meat of short ribs or sirloin, which is considered one of the most delicious and tender cuts of beef. The thinly sliced meat is marinated in a mixture of soybean sauce, powdered sesame, salt, sesame oil, Welsh onion, garlic and other seasonings. The name neobiani is derived from the word neobut neobut, which describes how the beef is sliced into large, thin pieces. Maekjeok is a similar food that records reveal existed in ancient times.
