Short description: This barbecue preparation highlights a local black-pig breed with thick, fatty cuts cooked on a tabletop grill.
Ingredients: Thick cuts of black pork grilled with simple salt, garlic, sesame oil, ssamjang, leafy wraps, and kimchi sides.
Cultural note: It is associated with travel meals and dedicated grill restaurants where diners cook the pork themselves and eat it with wraps and sauces.
Common misconception: The point is not a black-colored sauce; the name refers to the pig breed and the prized texture of the meat.
