## In short

Ihwajeong Charcoal-Grilled Pork Galbi is a charcoal pork galbi restaurant on Manse-ro in Sosabeol, Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi. On a Saturday evening drive, the writer ordered Ihwajeong's seasoned pork grill and seasoned pork galbi, then finished the meal with beef galbisal, mul-naengmyeon, and a pear dessert.

Tirang and I had such gorgeous weather this weekend that we went for a drive, and by dinner I was craving sweet-and-savory pork galbi, so I'm here to introduce Ihwajeong Charcoal-Grilled Pork Galbi haha.

## Parking and entrance at Ihwajeong Charcoal-Grilled Pork Galbi

A very spacious parking lot 🚗

The restaurant is on the 2nd floor, so take the elevator!

### Review event

There's a Naver review event running too! Leave a nice photo and review and you get 100% Mungyeong omija (schisandra berry) ade haha.

## What's the vibe like inside?

The place was spacious and clean, so the overall atmosphere felt really comfortable! There were plenty of tables, plus separate group seating, so it seemed like a great spot for family meals, gatherings, or group dinners haha.

Maybe because it was the weekend, there were a lot of families there, but even with quite a few guests, the space was so spacious it never felt cramped or crowded! The tables were also spaced generously, which made for a comfortable meal.

## Self-bar and aprons

![Self-bar with lettuce, onion, and ssamjang](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish-04-mp7p8-966.webp)

The self-bar has lettuce, onion, salt, ssamjang, and cheongyang chili peppers ready to go! And for anyone ordering naengmyeon, mustard and vinegar to mix in are also at the self-bar haha.

![Aprons hanging on the wall](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish-05-xb63d-966.webp)

Aprons hang on the wall. Anyone who needs one can just grab it freely!

## The menu

![Ihwajeong Charcoal-Grilled Pork Galbi's menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish-06-133jr-966.webp)

The menu has Ihwajeong's seasoned pork grill, seasoned pork galbi, and beef galbisal, plus mul-naengmyeon, bibim-naengmyeon, doenjang jjigae, and seasoned crab as an add-on!

What we ordered 🔥

- Ihwajeong seasoned pork grill
- Seasoned pork galbi
- Beef galbisal
- Mul-naengmyeon

## Basic table setting and banchan

The basic table setting starts with the same ssam greens and onion we saw at the self-bar haha.

![Basic banchan spread with salad, japchae, seasoned crab, and radish salad](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish-07-1h4sa-966.webp)

Then a variety of banchan came out! Salad, japchae, seasoned crab, and radish salad — the crab was so good in particular! The other side dishes are refillable, but they said crab has to be ordered as an extra.

## Ihwajeong's seasoned pork grill & seasoned pork galbi

![Charcoal blazing in the grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish-08-1m8o4-966.webp)

Ooh, the charcoal is blazing away 🔥 For pork galbi, charcoal-grilled really is the best haha!

![Ihwajeong's seasoned pork grill and seasoned pork galbi served together](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish-09-zzioc-966.webp)

![Plate of thick pork neck seasoned pork grill](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish-10-8qsjx-966.webp)

The seasoned pork grill and seasoned pork galbi came out together. The seasoned pork grill is 100% thick, tender pork neck, and the seasoned pork galbi comes with both neck meat and rib meat, they said.

![Seasoned galbi turning golden-brown over the charcoal](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish-11-12u05-966.webp)

Watching it turn golden-brown made it look more and more delicious. The charcoal aroma was drifting up too, so I couldn't wait to take a bite 🤤

![Seasoned galbi cut into bite-sized pieces and grilled again](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish-12-1w5lf-966.webp)

They cut it into bite-sized pieces and grilled it once more over the strong charcoal fire haha.

The very first bite was a proper ssam wrap! Both the seasoned pork grill and the seasoned pork galbi had such delicious sauce!

The sweet-savory sauce soaked into the meat perfectly, and it was thick yet tender and juicy. With that subtle charcoal aroma on top, charcoal-grilled pork galbi really is the best!

![Charcoal-grilled seasoned pork galbi placed on ssam greens](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish-13-1tgeo-966.webp)

![Seasoned pork galbi eaten with white rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish-14-1i6qp-966.webp)

I always love eating seasoned pork galbi with plain white rice, and honestly that's the ultimate combo haha. The sweet-savory sauce on the meat and the nutty, plain taste of the rice went so well together!

White rice really is the best match for seasoned pork galbi. They gave us a lot of rice too. The portion was bigger than I expected (I was actually surprised haha), and of course don't forget to pick every last bit of meat off the bones — it'd be a shame not to!

## Finishing with beef galbisal

![A plate of beef galbisal ordered to finish the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish-15-2856c-966.webp)

![Close-up of the raw beef galbisal](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish-16-17j7f-966.webp)

After enjoying the pork to our hearts' content, we finished with beef galbisal too haha. After eating so much pork galbi, I was curious about the beef galbisal too, so we tried it, and it was the perfect way to wrap up the meal!

![Beef galbisal grilling over the charcoal](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish-17-1808u-966.webp)

We grilled the beef galbisal with care too. Grill it too long and it gets tough!

![Beef galbisal grilled to perfection](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish-18-d2u2a-966.webp)

![Sliced grilled beef galbisal](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish-19-irfxi-966.webp)

Tirang grilled it perfectly 💛 The beef galbisal was just as good as the pork galbi! It had a tender yet chewy texture that was delicious. It had a completely different charm from the pork galbi haha.

## Finishing with naengmyeon and pear dessert

![Mul-naengmyeon served after the meat course](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish-20-1hn3b-966.webp)

![Noodles lifted up from the mul-naengmyeon bowl](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish-21-1pj7a-966.webp)

We were so full, but the mul-naengmyeon (cold noodle soup) was a must >,< 🍜

![Cool pear dessert served to finish the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish-22-1dvq3-m-966.webp)

![A cup of sweet, cool pear dessert](https://img.superchart.com/images/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish/pyeongtaek-sosabeol-charcoal-pork-ribs-beef-finish-23-1je1v-966.webp)

The pear dessert you have to try before leaving Ihwajeong Charcoal-Grilled Pork Galbi 🍐 This is genuinely so good haha. It's sweet and cool, so after all that meat it tastes even better 💛

## 144-hour cross-aged seasoned galbi, final thoughts

They said Ihwajeong Charcoal-Grilled Pork Galbi brings out the best flavor in its pork galbi through two rounds of cross-aging over 144 hours! The galbi was thick and juicy, and the sauce had a naturally sweet flavor from pear, making the meat tender — I really enjoyed the meal.

If you're ever craving charcoal-grilled pork galbi, I recommend Ihwajeong Charcoal-Grilled Pork Galbi! It's a must-visit pork galbi spot in Pyeongtaek >,< 👍🏻
