Mongolian barbecue

Hey kiddo, do you know what a barbecue is? It's when we cook food outside on a grill. Now, Mongolian barbecue is a special kind of barbecue where you get to choose all the ingredients you want and then the chef will cook it for you on a big flat hot plate.

First, you pick out your meat, like chicken or beef, and then choose your favorite vegetables like broccoli, carrots, onions, and peppers. You can also add noodles and spices like garlic or ginger for extra flavor!

Next, it's time to season your meat and veggies with your favorite sauce like teriyaki or hoisin sauce. Yum!

Then, you take your bowl over to the hot plate where the chef will cook everything for you. It's almost like a show because they'll cook it right in front of you and flip everything around with big spatulas!

Once your food is cooked, it's time to dig in! You can eat it with rice if you want or just enjoy it on its own. Mongolian barbecue is a fun and tasty way to get all the flavors you love in one dish!
