Gochujang bowl rice and beef doenjang stew: Daegu galbi grill Baeksanu

Where is Baeksanu Sutbul Wolsong Main Branch, and is there parking?

Baeksanu Sutbul Wolsong Main Branch is a charcoal pork galbi restaurant at 102-10 Joam-ro, Dalseo-gu, Daegu, right at the Joam intersection. This Wolseong-dong meat restaurant with a playroom sits right at the intersection, so it's easy to spot even from a distance haha! I'd been curious about it since it opened, and I finally made it there!

The place is huge, so I'd definitely recommend it for dining out, gatherings, or work dinners in Wolseong-dong — and since it has a playroom, it's especially great to go with kids!

Inside Baeksanu Sutbul: seating and how long the wait runs

Inside, Baeksanu Sutbul Wolsong Main Branch is a large place with tables spaced out generously. Walking in, I was struck by how spacious it was — the wide tables made for a really comfortable meal haha!

I visited a bit later in the evening, and apparently this Wolseong-dong meat restaurant with a playroom, Baeksanu Sutbul, gets waits even on weekday evenings!? Haha. Family groups made up most of the customers there too!

The kids' playroom at Baeksanu Sutbul

Baeksanu Sutbul, the Wolseong-dong meat restaurant with a playroom, has a big playroom, so it's great to bring kids along

Baeksanu Sutbul Wolsong Main Branch has a large playroom. With a kid, I always end up looking for meat restaurants that have one, and since this Wolseong-dong spot has a playroom, the adults can grill and eat in peace while the kid has a blast playing — makes for a relaxed family meal out haha!

Pork galbi that arrives pre-grilled at the table

Baeksanu Sutbul pre-grills the meat right in front of you, so you only need to give it a light finish at the table and can eat comfortably

Baeksanu Sutbul Wolsong Main Branch pre-grills the pork galbi right in front of you, so you just need to finish it off a bit more at the table. This Wolseong-dong meat restaurant does the pre-grilling for you — you know how hard it is to grill galbi properly, right!?

Because of the sauce, galbi burns easily if you're not careful, so grilling it is a hassle — but here, since they pre-grill it, eating was so much easier and more pleasant.

Baeksanu Sutbul menu and prices

The menu offers a nice range — pork galbi, raw galbi, LA-style raw galbi, seasoned L-galbi, and pork intestine (silmakchang) — so you get to pick and choose, which I liked. It's ₩44,000 per kg, so it's affordable to eat without worry. We ordered 1kg of pork galbi.

Side dishes, the self-bar and unlimited pork skin

A self-bar you can casually help yourself to without feeling awkward — and unlimited pork skin on top of that?

At Baeksanu Sutbul Wolsong Main Branch, you can help yourself to as many side dishes as you like from the self-bar, and pork skin is unlimited refill. They bring out the basic side dishes ahead of time, but they always run low while you're eating meat, right haha! It was great being able to just grab more from the self-bar without feeling awkward about it!

The basic side dishes come out looking neat and tidy

How does the 44,000-won-per-kg pork galbi taste?

The 1kg of pork galbi we ordered arrived! Haha. Look at that golden-brown grilling job! Since it's charcoal-grilled meat, you get that savory aroma plus a flavor that really gets your appetite going~~~~~~~~~~

No kid dislikes pork galbi, right!? Haha. Great to bring along with your kid too!

One full plate was too much, so they portioned some out to grill — can you see the sheen on the already pre-grilled pork galbi?! Haha. The look of it is seriously no joke!

The pork galbi on the grill was mouthwatering just to look at. The sauce was soaked in so well that as soon as it hit the charcoal, a sweet sauce aroma drifted up gently.

As it cooked to a golden brown, the surface of the meat glistened, and the way it grilled deliciously from the edges inward looked truly appetizing

Popping a well-cooked piece of pork galbi in my mouth, the sweet sauce flavor blended with the charcoal aroma — great with rice,

and just as good wrapped in lettuce. You've gotta wrap your meat, no question, haha!

From the sizzling sight on the grill to the moment it hit my mouth, I got the full appeal of pork galbi here. If you love pork galbi, you'll genuinely enjoy eating here.

Finishing with gochujang bowl rice and beef doenjang stew

At Baeksanu Sutbul Wolsong Main Branch, instead of plain rice you can order daejeopbap (bowl rice), which comes served in a large bowl so you can mix it like bibimbap, and you can also order beef doenjang jjigae separately.

Plain rice is available too, but I ordered the bowl rice, so it came out in a large bowl so I could mix it like bibimbap!

They give you gochujang, so you just add it in and mix it up to enjoy haha!

The beef doenjang jjigae came out too, and bubbling away with the rice, it was so tasty haha!

And putting a piece of meat on top of the rice — need I say more haha! A place where I got to enjoy delicious charcoal-grilled meat while my kid had a great time. Baeksanu Sutbul is the place that'll come to mind whenever I want a relaxed family meat meal in Wolseong-dong.
