With wrap vegetables as well, it felt generous even before the meat arrived!! Then the charcoal comes out, and the fire was really strong, so the meat cooked fast, and the staff kept an eye on the heat so grilling was no trouble~~ Brisket cooks quickly anyway, haha. ![Strong charcoal fire set on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/magok-chadol-grill-date-celebration-dinner/magok-chadol-grill-date-celebration-dinner-15-15at6-900.webp) ![Brisket grilling over charcoal](https://img.superchart.com/images/magok-chadol-grill-date-celebration-dinner/magok-chadol-grill-date-celebration-dinner-16-rmljv-900.webp) ## How the aged brisket tasted Look at that glowing meat... haha ![Tightly marbled aged brisket at Chadol Grill Magok](https://img.superchart.com/images/magok-chadol-grill-date-celebration-dinner/magok-chadol-grill-date-celebration-dinner-17-1r2g3-1200.webp) The aged brisket at Chadol Grill Magok was nutty and rich, yet clean with no gamey smell. The color alone made the look stand out when it arrived. The marbling was tightly packed, and you could tell at a glance it was a quality cut, haha. Like this!! Grilled up, I don't even need to tell you how it tastes~! Nutty and rich!! The flavor that filled my mouth the moment I put a slice in was really good. It was clean with no off smell at all but still deep, and the more I chewed, the nuttier it got hehe. ![A golden-grilled slice of aged brisket](https://img.superchart.com/images/magok-chadol-grill-date-celebration-dinner/magok-chadol-grill-date-celebration-dinner-18-1f7b3-900.webp) ![Grilled brisket with mustard leaf kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/magok-chadol-grill-date-celebration-dinner/magok-chadol-grill-date-celebration-dinner-19-gfvyf-900.webp) It was good with the fresh lettuce salad (겉절이) and good with the mustard leaf kimchi too!! The kimchi's sharp tang balanced the richness of the brisket, so I could keep eating without feeling greasy, haha. ## How is marinated brisket different from aged? The marinated brisket at Chadol Grill Magok tasted a bit like bulgogi??? It had a different charm from the aged one. The marinade soaked in just right, so it was salty-sweet with great savoriness. Alternating between aged and marinated meant I never got tired of it and enjoyed it to the end! So I recommend ordering them together~~~ ![Chadol doenjang stew packed with brisket at Chadol Grill Magok](https://img.superchart.com/images/magok-chadol-grill-date-celebration-dinner/magok-chadol-grill-date-celebration-dinner-20-14sof-900.webp) ## Finishing with the chadol doenjang stew The chadol doenjang stew (₩7,000) at Chadol Grill Magok is packed with brisket and well worth ordering. If you're Korean, of course... you have to order it... haha! The brisket fat soaks into the broth, so it was both earthy and nutty in flavor, haha. Finishing with the stew and rice after the meat left me properly full yet comfortable~! You've got to have your carbs... ## Who Chadol Grill Magok suits Fresh, good-quality meat, generous side dishes, and chadol doenjang stew to finish, all in one place! I think it's great for marking a happy day and just as easy for a regular date!! The space is big and clean too, so I'd recommend it for company dinners or group gatherings near Magok Station, haha. It's also a good Magok dinner spot for families, so everyone should stop by! ## Where it is - Chadol Grill Magok (차돌그릴 마곡) - 16 Magokjungang 6-ro, Gangseo-gu, Seoul, South Korea - 서울특별시 강서구 마곡중앙6로 16 지엠지타워 123호 - 37.5603239, 126.8293867 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%B0%A8%EB%8F%8C%EA%B7%B8%EB%A6%B4%20%EB%A7%88%EA%B3%A1/@37.5603239,126.8293867,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@tiled-table-2/magok-chadol-grill-date-celebration-dinner/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
