They say every cut of meat is aged for over 24 hours, then cooked low and slow with long oak-wood smoking. ![Oak-smoked barbecue introduction](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-03-8x9nr-966.webp) Its signature dishes are brisket and spare ribs, and you can try several cuts at once in a platter or sampler. It is also close to Hongdae and Hapjeong, so it is in a great spot for a restaurant crawl around Sangsu Station. ![Locos BBQ near Sangsu Station](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-04-1ok4g-966.webp) Locos BBQ was even featured on Sung Si-kyung's YouTube show, Meogeul Tende. !! ![Photo related to the Meogeul Tende feature](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-05-464lp-966.webp) ## An exotic atmosphere and lots of seating ![The exotic atmosphere at Locos BBQ](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-06-fwafq-m-966.webp) ![The exotic atmosphere at Locos BBQ](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-07-hjx31-966.webp) The interior has such an exotic feel that it made our date feel a little like we had arrived in Texas, haha. ![Information about bringing a dog](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-08-1rz4r-966.webp) They also allow dogs, so I think it would be nice to come back with my pup next time. ⋆◡̎⋆ There were all kinds of seats, from private rooms and group tables to bar tables, so there were plenty of tables and the space felt roomy. ![Restaurant seating with private rooms and group tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-09-tg7mg-966.webp) ![Restaurant seating including bar tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-10-v9e0w-966.webp) There were nachos at the self-service bar, so I grabbed some while we waited—and they were tasty too. (I ate way too many...) ![Nachos at the self-service bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-11-ve3js-966.webp) ## What comes with the Locos BBQ two-person sampler and its price ![Locos BBQ two-person sampler menu](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-12-n5a7g-966.webp) The Locos BBQ two-person sampler is ₩49,900 and comes with brisket, pulled pork, pork belly, spare ribs, and six sides. They say sides such as mac and cheese and smashed potatoes are popular too. One two-person sampler left both of us full. - Ordered: Locos BBQ two-person sampler ### Table sauces to choose to your taste ![Three barbecue sauces set on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-13-1ip4y-966.webp) Each table comes set with three sauces, so you can pick whichever one suits your taste for dipping. ## From spare ribs to bun and tortilla combinations ![Two-person sampler tray with meats and sides](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-14-tcnza-966.webp) The tray arrived absolutely packed with meat and sides. At the upper left, pulled pork was shredded into strands and generously coated in barbecue sauce; at the upper right, thick slices of brisket showed a distinct pink smoke ring on their cut sides. ![Sampler with pulled pork and brisket](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-15-x0f4e-966.webp) Two racks of spare ribs with a glossy glaze sat side by side in the center, with pork belly cut into bite-sized cubes underneath. ![Sampler with spare ribs and pork belly](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-16-1mohw-966.webp) The colorful sides included baked potatoes topped with cheese sauce and jalapeños, two pieces of golden grilled corn, coleslaw, baked beans, pickles, and pickled red onions. Four butter roll buns and tortillas were set alongside, making it easy to choose a meat and wrap it up. ![Sampler sides including baked potatoes and grilled corn](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-17-1qct4-966.webp) The spare ribs were the most tender—the meat was cooked so softly that it slipped right off the bone. ![Tenderly cooked spare ribs](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-18-90tfn-966.webp) ![Chipotle sauce and barbecue meat](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-19-bohf6-966.webp) The chipotle sauce was especially delicious, so I kept reaching for it to dip the meat. ![Barbecue served with chipotle sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-20-6p2kq-966.webp) ![Barbecue and chipotle sauce combination](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-21-1j8nf-966.webp) Wrapping it in a bun or in a tortilla was both insanely good, so it was fun switching between the two. As you would expect from a Sung Si-kyung restaurant pick, the flavor felt properly tried and tested. ![Barbecue wrapped in buns and tortillas](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-22-ju71e-966.webp) I finished with a Sprite, and it was cool and refreshing—it cleared away all the richness. ![Sprite at the end of the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-23-115iq-966.webp) The corn, what more can I say... so delicious. ![Grilled corn from the sampler](https://img.superchart.com/images/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos/sangsu-texas-bbq-sampler-locos-24-4jv4d-966.webp) ## Reservations, parking, and bringing a dog ### Can I visit without a reservation?

Yes, dogs are welcome if they are in a dedicated carrier or bag. ### How many people is the two-person sampler good for?
