Beomil-dong beef BBQ: galbi dwitgogi in sesame oil and salt, Hanuso

Hanuso Dwitgogi Beomil Branch: when you crave beef in Beomil-dong

Hanuso Dwitgogi Beomil Branch (하누소뒷고기 범일점) is a beef BBQ restaurant in Beomil-dong at 9 Jobang-ro 49beon-gil, Dong-gu, Busan, open daily from 16:00 to 23:00. My thought was "you worked hard for four days, so eat hard!", and this was the first place that came to mind.

I love meat and eat a lot of it, so if a place is where I think of when I want meat, that says it all. These days I hardly call anything delicious unless it's really good meat, hehe.

Menu and set prices at Hanuso Dwitgogi

The sets are: sirloin set (400g top-grade sirloin) ₩95,000; sirloin and tenderloin set (200g top-grade sirloin + 200g Hanuso tenderloin) ₩95,000; sirloin and galbi set (200g top-grade sirloin + 200g assorted galbi) ₩86,000; and tenderloin and galbi set (200g Hanuso tenderloin + 200g assorted galbi) ₩86,000. There are also a special set and a premium set, plus doenjang sulbap (soybean paste stew rice), kimchi-mal guksu (cold kimchi noodles) and infused liquor.

There are set menus, but you can also order whatever you like separately. I fell for the galbi dwitgogi (rib-meat cut) last time, so I really wanted it again today!

Hanwoo inside skirt, snowflake galbi meat, golden shrimp-shaped cut, hanwoo chuck flap tail and instant marinated galbi: there's hardly a cut they don't have.

Side dishes and the grill at Hanuso Dwitgogi

The side dishes include green onion kimchi and pickles... I'm not sure exactly what they were, but they were delicious!

Shredded radish, soy sauce onions and seasoned scallions come out too.

I was curious about this last time and asked: it's the fuel that feeds the fire. It's corn! Pretty eco-friendly, no?

The grill sits at a slant, hotter at the top and less hot at the bottom, I was told.

And icy dongchimi (radish water kimchi) with ice floating in it! The sides were great. There's also pickled radish, garlic, ssamjang (seasoned soybean paste) and wasabi.

Private rooms, open seating and easy for groups

Hanuso Dwitgogi Beomil Branch has everything from room-style seating to open areas, so it's comfortable and good for coming with a group. While waiting for the meat, you can read the beef trivia that clears up misconceptions. They have disposable aprons too, so no worry about splatters on your clothes!

What is the complimentary hanwoo yukhoe like?

Hanuso Dwitgogi serves hanwoo yukhoe as a free starter. Honestly.... I'm just grateful that I get to have yukhoe this good as my first snack.

It comes with pear and radish sprouts, and one bite followed by a somaek (soju and beer mix) is love, everyone.

How we grilled the hanwoo and galbi dwitgogi

We ordered 2 servings of hanwoo dwitgogi and 2 servings of galbi dwitgogi.

See that irresistible marbling? Shishito peppers and king oyster mushrooms come as garnish too.

Please, everyone, eat the galbi meat. When it goes in your mouth the beef fat melts away and just disappears.

Grill it quickly on the upper part of the grill.

I'm writing this post and I already want it again, a flavor that keeps coming back to mind.

While the meat cooks, nibbling on yukhoe as you wait is just perfect. Beef gets tough if overcooked, so eat it as soon as the pink is gone.

A dab of salt. Hanuso Dwitgogi is so good, T_T I'm sorry I can't describe it any other way, it's just bewitching.

I am a fan of Hanuso Dwitgogi, as you can tell.

One bite and the juices burst out, I couldn't help applauding, and the drinks just slide down.

Galbi dwitgogi with sesame oil + salt

My husband said it's so good dipped in sesame oil and then a dab of salt, so I followed him, and the nutty richness and savoriness doubled.

I also put on wasabi, beef's eternal partner. I use a king oyster mushroom as a bowl and place the fully cooked beef on top.

Every single piece is so good that I ended up savoring them slowly.

Highballs you can drink at Hanuso Dwitgogi

Hanuso Dwitgogi Beomil Branch serves a yuzu highball, a Suntory Kakubin highball and a Jack Daniel's highball, so pair your beef with a drink that suits it.

Finishing with doenjang sulbap

Doenjang sulbap lovers order doenjang (soybean paste stew) and rice, then plop the rice right in. Kkakdugi (cubed radish kimchi) and anchovies come as side dishes too.

Snip some chili peppers into the bubbling earthenware pot, and it's the bewitching Hanuso Dwitgogi! I'll be back, 20000% sure.
