It looks perfect for enjoying barbecue outside on a nice day, and there is a space where you can bring your dog too, so it seems like a good spot for family meals or gatherings. Since we visited for lunch, we ordered mainly from the lunch-special menu. (Lunch specials are unavailable on weekends and public holidays!) ![Lunch-special order at the Palgongsan Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac-04-15lsa-900.webp) ## What We Ordered from the Lunch Specials - Lunch-special brisket set, beef brisket: ₩17,000 - Lunch-special pulled pork set, pork neck: ₩15,000 - Lunch-special shrimp cream pasta: ₩11,000 - Lunch-special shrimp aglio e olio: ₩10,000 - Two Bundaberg grapefruit drinks: ₩11,000 - Total: ₩64,000 Since there were several of us, we could order a good variety from barbecue to pasta and try a little of everything. ## Texas Barbecue That Was Just as Delicious Again ![Texas barbecue brisket dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac-05-13i4c-900.webp) ![Lunch-special brisket set](https://img.superchart.com/images/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac-06-11q1e-900.webp) ![Brisket barbecue meal spread](https://img.superchart.com/images/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac-07-a2ui2-900.webp) The first thing I tried was, of course, the brisket! The tender meat had that unmistakable barbecue flavor, and it was delicious. The meat was moist yet clean-tasting, and the sauce made its flavor come through even more. And wrapped in a tortilla? So, so good?!! Drool 🤤 ![Brisket served with tortillas](https://img.superchart.com/images/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac-08-18ndt-900.webp) ![Barbecue tortilla accompaniment](https://img.superchart.com/images/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac-09-j8wog-900.webp) ![Tender pulled pork barbecue](https://img.superchart.com/images/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac-10-1gp37-900.webp) The pulled pork was lovely too, with a tender texture that pulled apart easily along the grain. The rich pork flavor and barbecue notes went together nicely, so I enjoyed this one as well. ## Shrimp Pasta Between Bites of Barbecue We also ordered shrimp cream pasta and shrimp aglio e olio alongside the barbecue! The people I went with said the shrimp pasta was richer and more delicious. ![Shrimp cream pasta](https://img.superchart.com/images/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac-11-142ad-900.webp) ![Shrimp aglio e olio](https://img.superchart.com/images/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac-12-1fgdc-900.webp) ![Shrimp pasta ordered with barbecue](https://img.superchart.com/images/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac-13-1tbdp-900.webp) The cream pasta was mild and rich, so it paired well with the barbecue, while the aglio e olio was clean and light—great for eating between bites of meat. As expected, coming with a group makes it so fun to order lots of things and share 😋 The staff were kind again, so we could eat comfortably, and it was convenient that the restaurant also has a restroom and a powder room inside. ![Restaurant interior amenities area](https://img.superchart.com/images/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac-14-1wrdq-900.webp) ![Texas-style restaurant interior](https://img.superchart.com/images/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac-15-15xy2-900.webp) ![Interior space at the Palgongsan Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac-16-8xjgn-900.webp) The interior has a Texas-inspired feel, which gives it an exotic atmosphere, and I hear that in the evening it feels even nicer with lights beneath the foothills of Palgongsan. ![Evening atmosphere at the restaurant beneath Palgongsan](https://img.superchart.com/images/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac-17-9m90o-900.webp) ![Palgongsan Branch atmosphere with lighting](https://img.superchart.com/images/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac-18-xfefo-900.webp) ![Exotic Texas-style interior at the Palgongsan Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac-19-4j08p-900.webp) Next time, I want to properly try the tomahawk steak or some of the other steak dishes rather than the lunch specials. I came back because I remembered how delicious it was, and once again, I had such a happy time enjoying great food with wonderful people. ❤️ If you are looking for a spot for a Palgongsan date, a family gathering, or a meal with friends, I recommend Modak Texas Barbecue Palgongsan Branch! ## Where it is - Modak Texas Barbecue Palgongsan Branch (모닥텍사스바베큐 팔공산점) - 290 Palgongsan-ro, 1st floor, Dong-gu, Daegu, South Korea (대구광역시 동구 팔공산로 290 1층) - 대구광역시 동구 팔공산로 290 1층 - 35.9907864, 128.6160071 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%AA%A8%EB%8B%A5%ED%85%8D%EC%82%AC%EC%8A%A4%EB%B0%94%EB%B2%A0%ED%81%90%20%ED%8C%94%EA%B3%B5%EC%82%B0%EC%A0%90/@35.9907864,128.6160071,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@gukbap-hour/palgongsan-lunch-barbecue-modac/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
