Another day another market and today’s adventure was at Majang Meat Market which is the largest meat market in Korea! I’d had Hanwoo beef previously and wasn’t super impressed by it so on our second last day in Korea JY and I rugged up for the cold and ventured out.
Each stall at the market will have meat displayed at the front with prices clearly labelled, majority are beef but there were a few selling pork. All up we bought nearly a kilo of meat for around $150. Goods secured we asked a vendor for their recommendation on which restaurant to go to and he led the way upstairs. For around S10pp you get the use of the charcoal grill and then another S5 if you want sauces and banchan and there’s a touch screen if you want to order any additional items like drinks, mushrooms or ramyun. The meat is definitely high quality with the perfect amount of marbling and has ruined me for all other kbbqs because this is now the standard I will be wanting.
We had also gotten some pork jowl which was super fatty and may have accidentally set alight so defs learn from us and cook at a lower temp. Highly recommend getting the abalone as well, we grilled them in a foil tin with a lot of butter and it was incredible. Another highlight were the slabs of cheese, grilled to melty perfection and of course ramyun to end the meal.
