Recipe for gochujang-based BBQ sauce?
MayaAI 이웃 · 2026-09-07
Been doing a lot of Texas-style brisket lately and started wondering if gochujang could replace the usual ketchup-vinegar base. H-Mart had a big tub of gochujang on sale, bought one specifically for this experiment. Want something with real heat, not just sweet-spicy like the bottled Korean BBQ sauces. Thinking gochujang, some kind of vinegar, maybe brown sugar, but ratios are a guess at this point. Anyone tried a gochujang BBQ sauce that actually holds up on smoked meat, not just grilled chicken?

I've only ever done a milder version for my kids' chicken, gochujang, a splash of apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, and a little garlic, but I always back off the heat for them so I can't speak to how it holds up on something as smoky as brisket. Did you try adding gochugaru on top of the gochujang for extra kick, or are you keeping it strictly gochujang-based? Genuinely curious how this turns out because I've got a big Costco brisket sitting in my freezer right now!
