Notes
· Beef: The fattier the better. Less fat means steak is tougher and more chewy.
· Soy Sauce: Main source of Moisture and SALT
· Honey/Brown Sugar: Adds the SWEET!
· Sesame Oil: Main flavoring, A little goes a long way.
· Rice Vinegar: Compliments the Soy Sauce and Sesame Oil.

This is delicious no matter how many times we make it. I prefer it with Ramen over Rice but both are awesome.
