Troop hot pot is a type of Korean hot pot. It is a type of hot pot made with sausage, luncheon meat, and other ingredients, with spicy bitter pepper sauce (now Korean sweet chili sauce) and as a soup base, to ease the pain of being meatless for a long period of time. Modern troop hot pots often include spicy noodles and cheese.
A special type of Korean cuisine, troop hot pot is a product of the garrison culture that followed the Korean War, with ham and sausage as its main ingredients. These used to be a side dish for U.S. troops to supplement their nutrition.
At that time, part of the leftover food of the U.S. troops had somehow found its way to the civilian population. Later, there was a master of Korean cuisine, using these ingredients to create a stew with Korean characteristics, the flavor quality is delicious, a great, and began to sell, the troops pot thus named. Of course, no restaurant would actually use what they got from the U.S. Army troops as an ingredient in troop potpie.
