Better than any I've eaten at restaurants. Make sure to use fresh ingredients, good gochujang, and don't be stingy with the sesame oil

This recipe is time consuming, but definitely worth it. I made it exactly as is, and it was wonderful.

This is a great, easy to make and non-time consuming recipe. I used only 1/4 cup of brown sugar, substituted the beef for ground turkey, zucchini for cucumbers, omitted spinach, used regular white long grain rice, and used Schiracha. I also added some Daikon. No stoneware needed. It was delicious! This is indeed a very flexible recipe!

This was great - we tried it on a whim, and man were we happy with this gem. We used pyrex bowls, replaced green onion with regular, and used a few other fresh vegetables we had on hand ( snow peas, baby carrots and arugula). We didn't have chili paste so we looked up a substitute, and it really became the star of the dish alongside the meat. Will be making again, and again... and again.

Used ingredients I had on hand: ground turkey, cabbage, spinach, snow peas, as well as the suggested seasonings, rice, egg, and nori. Instead of marinating the meat, I just cooked it with the marinade ingredients (used less, just to taste). It still tasted outstanding, and was very easy to prepare. Will definitely make this regularly!

I usually don't find bibimbap recipes that use brown sugar. This is an interesting addition. I think next time I may try this, just to see what the taste differenc e is. Otherwise, this seems like the usual bibimbap recipe that is always great!

This was SO much better than I was expecting. I used 1/4 cup of soy sauce, 1/4 cup of each sugar and a little bit of honey for the marinade with the green onions, garlic and sesame seeds (1 pound of meat) and it was PERFECT. I could have eaten the meat alone! I then used carrots, spinach, cucumbers, mushrooms, and peppers for the veggies. For a pepper sauce, I used Srirachi pepper sauce. I also cooked the rice in a rice cooker and then pressed "cook" again after it was finished to crisp up the bottom rice for about 5 minutes.
