What is it called when you cook your own meat at the table?

level 1

I've been to only one and it was a Korean bbq but I cant seem to find the right word for what they are. Every time i google it i get a hibachi grill or a Japanese steak house where they have a chef cooking for you.

I'm looking for a place where you have your own grill and cook your own food with friends or family.

level 2

Like others here, I also was going to just say Korean BBQ

level 2

I think this is probably correct, because wikipedia specifically says the present-day versions have the diners cook the food at the table.

level 2

Yakiniku us the Japanese term

level 2

That’s a pancake, not a type of restaurant.

level 1

People often call it bulgogi, even thought that term just means beef. So maybe that?

level 2

Bulgogi is beef marinated in a sweet and savoury sauce. It's a Korean dish. Not related to k or j bbq

level 1

Okay maybe I'm uncultured swine but I just call that Korean BBQ. Every Korean BBQ place I've been to is like that.

level 2

There's definitely restaurants in North America that just call themselves "Korean BBQ" or something like that. I don't think you're off-base in calling them that!

level 2

I thought of Raclette. Tried it in Paris, you have a small raclette grill on the table and the waiter brings out a range of thinly sliced meats such as steak and you cook it yourself.

Edit: Although looking at OP's comment they reference Korean BBQ so I doubt it's raclette.

level 1

Around here it’s a hibachi restaurant.

level 1

Are you talking about gas or electric? With an-open grate grill, or more like a flat-top?

level 2

If I'm remembering correctly the one I went to years ago was an electric grill

level 2

Yeah ive been to one a couple times called The Melting Pot. It does cheese fondue u can dip breads, veggies, and I think some meats. Then you can do the oil/broth version where you get raw meat that you get to cook in the pots at ur table. And for dessert they do chocolate fondue:)

    Media: Yakiniku

Yakiniku (焼き肉 or 焼肉), meaning "grilled meat", is a Japanese term that, in its broadest sense, refers to grilled meat cuisine. "Yakiniku" originally referred to western "barbecue" food, the term being popularized by Japanese writer Kanagaki Robun (仮名垣魯文) in his Seiyo Ryoritsu (i.e. "western food handbook") in 1872 (Meiji period).[1] The term later became associated with Korean-derived cuisine (Korean Barbecue) during the early Shōwa period.[2][3][4][5][6][7] Due to the Korean War, the terms associated with Korea in Japan were divided into North Korea (Kita Chōsen) and South Korea (Kankoku); the reference to a "yakiniku restaurant" arose as a politically correct term for restaurants of either origin.[8][9]

Today, "yakiniku" commonly refers to a style of cooking bite-size meat (usually beef and offal) and vegetables on gridirons or griddles over a flame of wood charcoals carbonized by dry distillation (sumibi, 炭火) or a gas/electric grill. It is one of the most popular dishes in Japan. The origin of contemporary yakiniku is considered to be Korean barbecue, one of the most popular dishes in Korean cuisine.[10][11]

The present style of yakiniku restaurants are derived from Korean restaurants in Osaka and Tokyo, which opened around 1945 by Koreans in Japan.[12][13] In a yakiniku restaurant, diners order prepared raw ingredients (individually or as a set) which are brought to the table. The ingredients are cooked by the diners on a grill built into the table, several pieces at a time. The ingredients are then dipped in sauces known as tare before being eaten. The most common sauce is made of soy sauce mixed with sake, mirin, sugar, garlic, fruit juice and sesame.[14][15] Garlic-and-shallot or miso-based dips are sometimes used.

History[edit]

Etymology[edit]

What is it called when you cook your own meat at the table?

Proposed western-style menus in Seiyō Ryōri Shinan (1872) recommending a cold meat dish for breakfast, yakiniku for lunch, and a simmered meat or yakiniku dish with a roasted meat dish for dinner.

After officially being prohibited for many years, beef consumption was legalised in 1871 following the Meiji Restoration[16] as part of an effort to introduce western culture to the country.[17] The Emperor Meiji became part of a campaign to promote beef consumption, publicly eating beef on January 24, 1873.[18][19] Steak and roasted meat were translated as yakiniku (焼肉) and iriniku (焙肉), respectively, as proposed western-style menus in Seiyō Ryōri Shinan[20] although this usage of the former word was eventually replaced by the loanword sutēki.

Jingisukan, the Japanese transliteration of Genghis Khan, is a style of grilling mutton, which is also referred to as a type of yakiniku. The dish was conceived in Hokkaidō, where it has been a popular blue-collar dish that has only recently gained nationwide popularity. The name Jingisukan is thought to have been invented by Sapporo-born Tokuzo Komai, who was inspired by the grilled mutton dishes of Northeastern Chinese cuisine. The first written mention of the dish under this name was in 1931.[21][22]

Origin[edit]

A table that has a circular grill embedded in the tabletop

Common Japanese style of yakiniku, drawing heavy influences from Korean dishes such as bulgogi and galbi, became widespread in Japan during the 20th century, most notably after the Second World War. Restaurants serving this dish either advertised themselves as horumonyaki (ホルモン焼き, offal-grill) or simply Joseon (Korean) cuisine (朝鮮料理, Chōsen ryōri).[23] The division of the Korean peninsula led to disagreements in the mid-1960s in the naming of "Korean food", with pro-South businesses changing their signs to "Kankoku ryōri (韓国料理)" (named after Republic of Korea) rather than retaining the term Chōsen (Joseon), the name of the old, undivided Korea which by then had been appropriated by the North.[12]

According to "Nippon Yakiniku Monogatari written by Toshio Miyatsuka" , the name "Yakiniku" became widespread in the latter half of the 1960s, and before that, "Yakiniku" was called "Korean cuisine (朝鮮料理, Chōsen ryōri)". The Korean Peninsula was divided into north and south, and in Japan around this time, the restaurants that served yakiniku and Naengmyeon called themselves "Chōsen ryōri (朝鮮料理, Joseon cuisine)", but with treaty on Basic Relations between Japan and the Republic of Korea in 1965, the name "Kankoku ryōri (韓国料理, Korean cuisine)" has increased. Eventually, North Koreans in Japan claimed "Chōsen ryōri" and South Koreans in Japan claimed "Kankoku ryōri", which means "Korean cuisine", which means yakiniku today. It is said that the word "Yakiniku" was used as a compromise of political conflict to put an end to this turmoil.[24][25]

Ventilated barbecue systems, introduced by Shinpo Co., Ltd. in March 1980,[26] quickly spread throughout Japan as it enabled diners to eat yakiniku in a smoke-free environment and greatly extended the clientele.

The popularity of yakiniku was given a further boost in 1991 when the easing of beef import restrictions led to a drop in the price of beef.[27] However, the industry was dealt an unprecedented blow in 2001 with the occurrence of BSE (mad cow disease) in Japan.
