Mix soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, black pepper, and sesame seeds. Set aside.
Blend garlic, onion, pear, and water, then add to the soy sauce mixture. Then add sake.
Marinate galbi in the soy sauce-pear mixture for 12 hours minimum.
Heat your pan with oil. Once heated, place the meat in the pan and let galbi sear for 3-4 minutes on each side. Before flipping, check if the desired color for one side has been reached.
Once both sides have been seared, cut the ribs along the bones to check if it has been cooked through. Cook the meat until it is well done.
Remove the meat from the pan, and saute onion in meat drippings.
On a plate, make a bed of onions and place the cut galbi on top of each other covering the bones and exposing the meat.
Garnish with scallions and sesame seeds. Serve with any side dish preferred and enjoy!
