Filipino Pork Barbecue is a beloved street food and party staple with roots in Filipino cuisine. It features thinly sliced pork, marinated in a flavorful blend of soy sauce, garlic, calamansi or vinegar, sugar, and often banana ketchup for a hint of sweetness. Skewered and grilled over charcoal, the meat becomes tender with a smoky, caramelized glaze. While rich in protein, this dish can be high in sodium and sugar due to the marinade. The grilling method adds deep flavor without excess oil, making it a leaner choice compared to fried alternatives. However, its nutritional profile depends on portion size and ingredients used, as well as the accompanying dips or rice. In moderation, Filipino Pork Barbecue is a satisfying way to enjoy the smoky, savory-sweet flavors that define Filipino cooking.
