Grilled Beef (Bò Nướng): Grilled tri-tip beef marinated with Vietnamese spices and lemongrass. We ensure the beef is juicy and tender.
Banh Mi with grilled beef is a mouthwatering variation of Vietnam’s famous banh mi, blending the robust, smoky flavor of marinated grilled beef with the crisp freshness of traditional Vietnamese ingredients. The grilled beef version at Ba-Ye doesn’t feature tender slices of beef; instead, it offers flavorful beef patties that are seasoned and grilled to perfection. The patties are made from chopped and ground beef mixed with lemongrass, and a blend of seasonings, with the distinct aroma of sesame standing out. Once shaped into patties, the beef is grilled, Ba-Ye ensure to achieve a smoky char on the outside while staying juicy on the inside. The grilled beef patty brings a satisfying, burger-like element to the banh mi, while still retaining the freshness and complexity of traditional Vietnamese flavors. As with other versions of banh mi, the grilled beef is complemented by essential components like crisp pickled vegetables – daikon and carrots, cucumber, cilantro, and fresh jalapeno. A layer of mayonnaise is spread on the crusty Vietnamese baguette, providing a creamy richness that contrasts beautifully with the savory beef patty. The combination of smoky, juicy beef with the bright, tangy crunch of pickles and fresh herbs makes banh mi grilled beef patty a delicious fusion of comfort and vibrant street food.
