Description

Today we’re in Jeju, South Korea, home of the Jeju black pig, considered the best pork in Korea and also considered to have the best Korean bbq in the country. So we’re on a mission today to eat at a few of the best Korean bbq restaurants, how will they be? Here are the places I tried: Crown Pig (크라운돼지 https://maps.app.goo.gl/9C9t6xSnXeD1qE4N8) - This is one of the highest regarded Korean bbq restaurants, and they are known to serve a special breed of Jeju black pig called Nanchukmatdon Pork. Price - 86,000 KRW ($59.07) total Sukseongdo Jungmun Branch (숙성도 중문점 https://maps.app.goo.gl/2zdBfeUastiAF1Co7) - This place is futuristic and modern and they specialize in impressive cuts of pork that are aged to intensify the flavor. Price - 91,000 KRW ($62.50) total Big Donga Restaurant (큰돈가 중문점 https://maps.app.goo.gl/WXfZ3FkvonmJFC166) - This place is very highly regarded locally and they serve laid back style premium Korean bbq using only the best and freshest black and white pork from Jeju. Price - 66,000 KRW ($45.33) total If you love Korean bbq, Jeju is a place you have to visit.

My father, who is from Jeju Island, always told me, "The island of Jeju is much better with pigs than with seafood." You pinpointed the context, so your video is always correct and happy. anyway Happy New Year!

Jeju is one of my favourite spots anywhere, been there 3 times and will head back again. Jeju Black Samgyeopsal + Jeju Anchovy Sauce with Soju = Bliss. Greetings from Croatia 🇭🇷

I loved how you added an animation and explanation in the beginning Mark! As a Korean living in Jeju these series really feel special since I follow you when you had like 30k subscribers!! Much love Mark! Only thing I must say is that the second place "숙성도" has became more of a tourist trap than a nice place to eat.... over the years I really felt that they lacked flavor 🙃

I watched a documentary about the farming of Jeju Black Pork. Everything from their feed to free range fields to butchery is all kept at a meticulously high level. It is no wonder it is so renowned. Mark thank you for making such a thoroughly researched and respectful series. Btw the thin Mu (Korean radish) slices can be layered just on top of lettuce in a wrap or just by itself with the meat.

The level of service in these Jeju restaurants is simply outstanding. If the service level were any higher, they'd be chewing the food for you too!😂

I was in S Korea once. And barbeque was f... awesome there! Excellent 10/10 food! Never visited Jeju unfortunately but Busan and Seoul are still amazing.
