The Barlok system was a star system in the Marcol sector of the Inner Rim Territories[1] and the Interior.[2] It fell within grid square L-8 of the Standard Galactic Grid[1] and contained Barlok, a terrestrial planet known for its advanced horticultural techniques. The Artiodac chef Strono Tuggs visited Barlok during a culinary tour of the galaxy that he made[3] between 34 ABY and 35 ABY,[4] buying bushels of the native prisht-fruit while he was there.[3]

Behind the scenes

In the current Star Wars canon, the Barlok system was mentioned in "Star Systems of the Galaxy," an appendix published with the Star Wars Galaxy Map on StarWars.com[1] on June 24, 2025. Both were written by Jason Fry.[5] The Barlok system originated in the Star Wars Legends continuity, where it appeared in the 2006 novel Outbound Flight, which was written by Timothy Zahn.[6]

  4. ↑ Star Wars: The Ultimate Cookbook establishes that the publishing of the in-universe The Ultimate Cookbook and the culinary tour that preceded it occurred following the publishing of The Official Black Spire Outpost Cookbook and prior to the destruction of Kijimi. It also establishes that The Ultimate Cookbook was published following the Festival of the Ancestors that occurred during that time period. Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge: The Official Black Spire Outpost Cookbook further establishes that The Official Black Spire Outpost Cookbook was published concurrently with the First Order's search for the Resistance base on Batuu, which Star Wars: Timelines dates to 34 ABY. In addition, Timelines dates the Festival of the Ancestors and the destruction of Kijimi to 35 ABY, meaning the tour must have taken place between 34 ABY and 35 ABY and The Ultimate Cookbook must have been published in 35 ABY.
