SPICY LETTUCE WRAP SAUCE (GOCHUJANG SSAMJANG)
Use this sauce for BBQ Beef Short Ribs or any barbecued meat in general. It also does wonders when stirred into regular mayo. I serve this combo with Chicken Skewers and everything from French fries to cruditeÌs. This is the best hot sauce ever, and I find myself wanting to smear it on everything.
