  1. sadly I have yet to make gyudon at home better than just going to a gyudon joint, I feel like its one of those that is better when you make them in bulk and small batches just don’t turn out right.

    Not to say doing it at home is bad, just… doesn’t fit that fast food feeling.

  3. No, but I can make the most delicious gyudon in the Netherlands so I guess I’m alright.

  4. Oooh I’ve tried this recipe

    Out of every other recipe I tried this one is actually my fave so far and it’s easy to replicate

  8. 20 minutes? Maybe if you choose brisket meat. if you choose rib-eye or ney York strip probably like 3

  9. Any tips on slicing the meat so thin – cut of meat, type of knife, technique, etc. – or will a butcher in the US do that? I’d like to try making this (as well as hotpot and sukiyaki) but am a little daunted by how thin the meat slices are.

  11. What a dank AI looking recipe….

    To get gyudon you need to slowly cook your onion and meat first. Then add the dashi and his friends. Else you got a soup with piece of meat.

    Leave over night to let everyone became friends, then re-heat on strong fire to reduce the broth. Then pour on fresh rice.

    You can go now GPT Kun..

  12. I tried making the J. Kenji Lopez one and It came out pretty good but I added a bit too much ginger root

  13. Why would you simmer thinly sliced beef for TWENTY MINUTES?

    I have made gyudon many times, and have never cooked the beef for more than a few minutes.

    Simmer the onions for 5 minutes, then add the beef and simmer for another 5 minutes.

    I don’t know, I’m sure op means well, but there are already great gyudon recipes out there by people who have a track record of delivering great recipes across the board.

    That doesn’t mean don’t try new things and experiment with recipes. But this recipe seems already to be leading anyone who follows it to a bad dinner experience.

    All three of these recipe creators are reliable and trustworthy sources of food knowledge imo.

  14. Thank you for sharing this recipe. I love beef gyudon! There are also some great tutorials on YouTube about how to create this – they walk you through it step-by-step and I find that’s easier to follow than reading a recipe at times – just a hint
