Take a moment to admire our home Korean barbeque setup. We got a spread of marinated meats, kimchi, and panchan from the Korean market and brought out a cast iron pan set over a portabl propane grill. The propane grill was the best $10 idea J has ever had. It's handy for hot pot and Korean barbeque, and hopefully one day I'll get around to making bananas foster in it.From the top left: red leaf lettuce for wrapping everything, steamed rice, perilla leaves, daikon kimchi, sesame marinated bean sprouts, pickled kelp, almond jello (tastes like plain jello and is mixed with perilla leaves and some other spices), marinated steak, burdock kimchi, doenjang (stinky soy bean paste), and marinated pork.
Indoor grilling is a great way to have a leisurely meal but still have your food hot, since you cook the pieces of meat as you're ready to eat them. So good! My preferred method of constructing a wrap is to lightly smear the bean paste on lettuce, then pile on very small amounts of everything on the table (in varying combinations). This one was a bit of a monstrosity. Usually I just pick one meat, some rice, and one side dish.

tasty! i've never had korean bbq at home before.
where can i get one of those propane grill in the Bay Area? I need one of those!
Any Chinese supermarket should have them. They come in black plastic briefcase-like containers and cost about $10. I know for a fact that New Mei Wah and the restaurant supply store down the street (Kamei) around 8th/Clement have them. Don't forget to pick up a pack of propane cans, which are usually sold next to the grills for $4/4pack.
