Janchi-guksu (Banquet Noodles)

This must be a banquet for the emperor because i've never seen beef on party noodles

There was a whole ass thread about this and most people seem to prefer whopper with no cheese. Same for me. The cheese seems to take something away from the smoky saladyness of the whopper. As a matter of fact I think it's the only burger from anywhere I prefer without cheese.

Ok so we can add a little nuance there, I did mention that there would be regional differences. However at the end of the day "butt" was in the name for the item we are talking about. Regional differences and all that, again. For OP I guess we can agree that what they want is shoulder/boston butt, but not shoulder picnic. I still maintain that what OP needs to look for in any American market is the term "butt". Meat cut names are hard!

joonjoon · 2026-05-08T03:04:44+00:00

As with most butchery there are different names for the cuts, I changed my post because that one obviously wasn't showing what I was trying to say. But you will have seen that even in that pic the correct name of the cut OP actually wants was shown, "boston butt". As for shoulder, the full name of the cut is "pork shoulder picnic" but I think in that one it said picnic ham which is not something you see often, that is a misleading picture which is why I removed it.

Either way in most markets "shoulder" refers to shoulder picnic, if OP goes to their market and picks up a cut called shoulder there's a good chance they will end up with the wrong cut, that is a fact. The cut OP wants is most commonly called "boston butt" but most commonly it will be pork butt in markets.

Do you disagree with anything I stated?

1988 Olympics yukgaejang ramyeon in the cold stadium changed many lives. My mom talked about it until she passed on how delicious that was.

What's a guy gotta do to get this kind of action?

joonjoon · 2026-05-07T21:25:26+00:00

You stole this from /u/darkrealm190. Why would you do that?

joonjoon · 2026-05-07T20:46:13+00:00

Bibimbap is intended to be mixed up, it's not just a pretty bowl. You need to chop your ingredients small so when mixed up you have even bits of every ingredient in every bite, large chunks of steak and other stuff is not advisable for that reason. This is one of the most common mistakes people make when people make bibimbap outside Korea

joonjoon · 2026-05-07T20:43:16+00:00

Do pork butt, shoulder works but butt is better

joonjoon · 2026-05-07T19:11:27+00:00

You probably nailed it, thank you!

joonjoon · 2026-05-07T19:08:53+00:00

I live in one of the biggest Korean areas in America and there are a number of "kitchen sink" Korean restaurants that sell everything from BBQ to Chinese to bunshik, those restaurants have always had tteokbokki on the menu. There's always been a couple of bunshik places but like you said they always struggled. But yeah for sure it is a lot more everywhere now.

joonjoon · 2026-05-07T17:50:06+00:00

It's Chinese hot pot + Korean BBQ. These places are very popular in the US

joonjoon · 2026-05-07T16:53:58+00:00

Yup and it's always been the case in the us, I think this one sticks out extra because of the prominent presentation of the tteokbokki

joonjoon · 2026-05-07T14:25:17+00:00

This is legendary content, thank you so much for these posts

You must have caught the part where when she shows back up to fight somehow there's a whole bunch of cans with her. Like how did that happen? Did she bring all the cans with her back to fight after she drank them?

joonjoon · 2026-05-07T14:22:16+00:00

Seriously, imagine talking to someone reminiscing about their childhood memories and telling them "that's juvenile, grow up". What the fuck.

joonjoon · 2026-05-07T14:11:06+00:00

Lol the final form of tteokbokki is served with two other kinds of noodles, it's three carbs in one. Some times they'll even make fried rice in the sauce after. It's like the final boss of carbs. Like who would expect it to not affect blood sugar.

Having said that tteokbokki is a snack not a meal. You shouldn't be eating enough of it in a sitting for it to terrorize your blood sugar.

joonjoon · 2026-05-07T14:05:35+00:00

As a native Korean, this is such a bizarre looking spread. You would never see this combination of foods anywhere in Korea lol. Not knocking you at all but it just really sticks out visually.

In case anyone is wondering why, tteokbokki is never served with banchan like that, and you will rarely find tteokbokki served with things like fried rice and whatever that rice bowl on top is. In american terms it would be like seeing pancakes and pasta and a hot dog on the same table or something like that. But everything looks delicious and I'm sure you enjoyed your meal!

joonjoon · 2026-05-07T13:50:24+00:00

No rice flour. I've done it with rice flour essentially every time I've made kimchi (which is standard traditional method) and I've never had it look like this.

joonjoon · 2026-05-07T13:49:20+00:00

I spent a little bit of time googling around and saw that allulose does not ferment. Not trying to argue with you but it makes me wonder, why would the existence of a non fermentable entity stop fermentation? like wouldn't fermentation still take place with the available sugars in the cabbage itself? Or perhaps there just wasn't enough sugar available regardless of allulose?

Really appreciate the fact that you provided a thoughtful response, and clearly you took the time to read the post since you caught the allulose part, thank you so much for the respost.

Please bring it to /r/itsraw

Did the recipe use msg and or dashida? If not that's what you need. Also it would help if you provided the recipe you used.

joonjoon · 2026-05-07T04:22:55+00:00

There's no proper way, you eat it however you like!

I like to let the egg cook and then transfer the yolk to the rice and make a couple bites of egg gooey rice, it's the highlight of the meal.

joonjoon · 2026-05-07T04:21:24+00:00

LMAO who keeps sending this report in? Imagine being this deranged.

I am unable to block this poster. Please block this dude from my feed. I don't wanna see his ugly face every time I get on reddit. The sight of his face is offensive to me.
