## In short

Modak Texas Barbecue Dongdaegu Branch is a Texas-style barbecue restaurant near Shinsegae by Dongdaegu Station in Dong-gu, Daegu. Visiting for weekend lunch, two diners ordered the two-person Memphis Platter set (₩75,000) with brisket, spare ribs, pulled pork and buffalo wings plus sides, and even big eaters were full without adding anything extra. Free sauce and tortilla refills via the kiosk meant no awkward asking either — verdict: plenty for two, no need to order more.

For parking, just search for Modak Texas Barbecue and head there. Since it was the weekend, I just shopped at Shinsegae and walked over for the meal, and it only took 5 minutes.

We visited during weekend lunch hours, and there were even groups having gatherings there. It seemed great for visiting with a bunch of people, or for a family meal out too.

## Menu lineup and the two-person Memphis Platter set

The smoky tomahawk steak can be enjoyed à la carte, and there are also set menus for 3 or 4 people plus course options, so you can order according to your budget and group size.

Since there were two of us, I ordered the two-person Memphis Platter set for ₩75,000! There was also a new-menu launch event with lobster at a discounted price. We were starving so we thought about ordering that too, but decided to see how much came out first before adding more — and the portion was... wow!!!!

### Starter: beef chili and nachos

They quickly brought out warm beef chili and nachos. The beef chili, slow-simmered for 10 hours, was spicy, tangy and warm — so good. It looked like you could even get the beef chili packed separately!

Piled generously on crispy nachos? That combo needs no explanation >< Lots of meat and crunchy vegetables too, which made for a solidly filling start even before the main course.

## What comes in the two-person platter

The two-person Memphis Platter set came out quickly.

The meats included:

- Brisket 150g
- Spare ribs 250g
- Pulled pork 150g
- Buffalo wings x3

That's what they prepared for us.

On the side, there was coleslaw, fries, salad, and a variety of sauces to go with everything too — pico de gallo, pickle relish, and barbecue sauce.

From right to left: brisket made from chadol yangji (thin-cut brisket), spare ribs, and pulled pork made from pork neck. Before we started eating, the staff explained each cut, trimmed everything for us, and even told us good pairings.

It looked like this, then this! They even removed the bones for us — it looked incredibly tender just to watch.

### Brisket and pulled pork

Since it's beef chadol brisket, they suggested eating it first. The sauce next to it is pico de gallo — with onion, jalapeño, tomato, cilantro and more — so refreshing and delicious. I also ate it with tortillas, and it was so tender there was barely anything to chew 🤤

The pulled pork was so tender too. Oh, and the meat sits on a hot stone plate, so you can eat it warm the entire time (I touched the plate with my hand to check).

Piled generously on a bun with coleslaw and pickle relish and sauce, one big bite — yum. Tender pulled pork with crunchy coleslaw. Move over, hamburgers.

## Free sauce and tortilla refills via the kiosk

What I loved about Modak Texas Barbecue Dongdaegu Branch is that sauces and tortillas could be added for free, and since you order through the kiosk, there's no awkward asking — great system. The extra tortillas we ordered came out warm too, and 6 pieces at that!

Let's finish off the spare ribs. Between wrapping meat in fries and everything, I was already getting a little full...?

### Spare ribs 250g — how was the portion?

The spare ribs were thick and juicy. With a gentle smoky aroma, they were so delicious.

I tried dipping them in each sauce separately too. I thought 250g of spare ribs minus bone weight wouldn't be much, but nope — it was a huge amount. Seriously. I'm not really a sauce person, so I just ate them plain and they were still full of flavor and delicious.

I ate it with coleslaw too, paired it with salad, and mixed and matched everything on tortillas — so fun, and every bite tasted a little different, so I never got tired of it and finished it all!

## Was the two-person platter enough for two people?

With grease-drained buffalo wings, cute smiley-face fries, and even thick-cut fries, we — who tend to eat a lot — were completely stuffed with just the two-person platter, no extra orders needed. I think from now on when I want steak near Dongdaegu Station, it'll be Modak Texas Barbecue instead of Outback. It's great for a date spot and also works for group gatherings — that was my visit to Modak Texas Barbecue Dongdaegu Branch.
