Staff grilled thick pork belly and pork neck over charcoal, with steamed egg and perilla oil fried rice from 4,000 won.

Since they grill everything over charcoal for you, it was easy to relax and eat. There are so many barbecue places around Cheolsan Station that I agonized over where to go, but reviews kept mentioning the lovely charcoal aroma, so I chose Sammokjip this time. Honestly, I thought meat is meat~ but it was seriously insanely delicious. There was nobody there when I arrived at 6, but by around 7 after work it was full, with a wait forming. > Sammokjip Cheolsan Main Branch, great for work dinners and family gatherings ![Sammokjip Cheolsan Main Branch exterior or entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-01-b4a8v-900.webp) ## A charcoal barbecue restaurant near Cheolsan Station where staff grill for you This is a charcoal-grilled pork belly specialist near Cheolsan Station. The staff grill the meat from start to finish, so even if you cannot grill meat, you can enjoy it at its best. ![Charcoal barbecue table](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-02-z43np-900.webp) ![Charcoal-grilled meat cooked by staff](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-03-oabv0-900.webp) I ordered both pork belly and pork neck. ## Pork belly with a gentle charcoal aroma ### Pork belly ₩16,900 It was grilled over charcoal and cut quite thick. Seeing the meat fat sizzling over the coals made me want to eat it right away. ![Thick pork belly over charcoal](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-04-kcvfb-900.webp) ![Pork belly grilling over charcoal](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-05-1kfc4-900.webp) The moment I bit into it, I could feel the juices burst out. The gentle charcoal aroma had seeped in, giving it a flavor clearly different from pork belly cooked on a regular grill. ![Juicy pork belly](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-06-1qlpb-966.webp) ![A piece of charcoal-scented pork belly](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-07-fe8q0-966.webp) The staff carefully handled everything, from when to cut the meat to when to flip it, so I could eat comfortably without worrying about the heat. ![Lettuce wraps and charcoal-grilled meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-08-1e8kz-900.webp) There was plenty of lettuce at the self-serve bar, so I had lots of ssam (lettuce wraps) with the meat without a worry. ## Tender pork neck and myeonginamul ### Pork neck ₩16,900 ![Thick-cut pork neck](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-09-xw20b-1200.webp) ![Pork neck grilling over charcoal](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-10-1zzhs-900.webp) The pork neck was just as thick as the pork belly. It had a good balance of fat and lean meat, so it was tender rather than dry. ![Pork neck with a balanced fat-to-lean ratio](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-11-157q6-966.webp) ![Cooked pork neck](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-12-dhh1h-966.webp) The distinctive nutty flavor of pork neck came through nicely, making it great to alternate with the pork belly. I especially remember the myeonginamul (pickled wild garlic leaves): it was conveniently cut up and nicely salty and sweet, perfect with the meat. ## Steamed egg between bites of meat ### Steamed egg ₩4,000 ![A bowl of savory steamed egg](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-13-19xr1-900.webp) I think there must have been sesame oil in the steamed egg because its aroma was especially nutty. Its soft texture and mild seasoning made it just right to eat between bites of meat. ![Soft steamed egg](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-14-g7jmj-900.webp) This was the first time I had finished an entire bowl of steamed egg. At most barbecue restaurants I only have a few spoonfuls as a side dish, but I kept reaching for this one. ## Fried rice with a memorable perilla oil aroma ### Fried rice ₩5,000 ![Fried rice on an iron plate](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-15-de970-966.webp) ![Fried rice served with meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-16-i6tfc-966.webp) The fried rice came already cooked on a separate iron plate, so I could have it alongside the meat. The aroma of perilla oil kept rising up; it felt like something I had never tried before, which was both intriguing and appealing. ![Perilla oil-scented fried rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-17-vnncz-966.webp) The aroma was not overpowering, just a gentle flavor that kept coming back to me. It was also a filling way to wrap up after finishing the meat. > Sammokjip, a great restaurant five minutes on foot from Cheolsan Station ![Sammokjip near Cheolsan Station](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-18-d6vua-900.webp) My first visit to Sammokjip Cheolsan Main Branch near Cheolsan Station! The thickness of the meat and charcoal aroma made it clearly more satisfying than an ordinary barbecue restaurant. ![Meal at Sammokjip Cheolsan Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-19-1qszh-900.webp) ## Hours and atmosphere It is open from 2 PM to 1 AM, leaving plenty of time for dinner plans or work gatherings. Since it stays open late, I thought it would also be a nice place for a second round of drinks. ![Seating inside Sammokjip](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-20-16y86-900.webp) ![Ventilation facilities inside the barbecue restaurant](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-21-t5052-900.webp) The interior had the grill plates and ventilation you would expect from a barbecue restaurant, and the smoke did not cling too heavily, so I could leave feeling comfortable after the meal. ![Self-serve bar with garlic and myeonginamul](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-22-1qjrf-966.webp) The self-serve bar was full of fresh vegetables including garlic, green onion, and myeonginamul. ![Sammokjip Cheolsan Main Branch menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-23-9iybe-900.webp) *Sammokjip menu* ## Parking at Sammokjip Cheolsan Main Branch Unfortunately, parking at Sammokjip Cheolsan Main Branch is difficult. I recommend using a nearby public parking lot or street parking in the Cheolsan commercial district. If you plan to drive, it is best to check parking availability beforehand. ## Around Cheolsan Station after your meal ![Street view around Cheolsan Station after a meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip-24-1324a-900.webp) It was an easy place to recommend for a dinner date near Cheolsan Station or a work gathering at a Cheolsan restaurant. ## Where it is - Snug Roastery (스너그로스터리) - 50 Sicheong-ro, Gwangmyeong-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 광명시 시청로 50 상가 A동 AA123호 - 37.4779417, 126.8685205 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%8A%A4%EB%84%88%EA%B7%B8%EB%A1%9C%EC%8A%A4%ED%84%B0%EB%A6%AC/@37.4779417,126.8685205,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@gyeonggi-side-dishes/cheolsan-charcoal-pork-sammokjip/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
