Korean Food USA: ssahmBBQ

Korean Food USA is a new series that showcases Korean and Korean-inspired eateries all around the nation.

Look out Dallas, Korean tacos have officially landed. SsahmBBQ, a newly-minted food truck, has brought the NY and LA phenomenon to the Lone Star state. It’s a collaboration between two foodies, Joey Hong, the owner of a local Italian restaurant, and Andy Park, the son of parents who run an LA-based Korean BBQ restaurant. You could say that BBQ runs in the family… they’re bringing traditional family recipes back in a new and delicious way.

The truck is serving up tacos, quesadillas and burritos, served with your choice of beef, pork, chicken, or tofu. Tacos, a steal at $3 each, are topped with caramelized kimchi, cilantro and onion, salsa, and sesame soy vinaigrette salad. Burritos are concocted in a similar fashion, with the added topping of cilantro lime rice. The quesadillas combine two of the most perfect ingredients on earth, monterey jack & cheddar cheese with caramelized kimchi.

The kimchi fries are also a popular option not to be missed. Crispy hand cut fries slathered with spicy mayo, cilantro and onion, monterey jack and cheddar cheese, and caramelized kimchi are equal parts filling and delicious. Pork enthusiasts have the option of adding marinated spicy pork.

SsahmBBQ has already acquired quite the following, so smart eaters should line up early and come hungry!
