Philippine BBQ, a staple in Filipino cuisine, is a flavorful grilled dish often enjoyed at celebrations and street food stalls. It typically features marinated pork, chicken, or fish, skewered and cooked over charcoal for a smoky aroma and charred finish. The marinade combines soy sauce, calamansi (a local citrus), garlic, banana ketchup, sugar, and sometimes soda for tenderizing and a sweet-savory balance. While rich in protein, traditional Philippine BBQ can be high in sodium and sugar due to the marinade ingredients. Cooking over open flames can lead to charred bits that, when eaten excessively, may carry health risks. Opting for lean meats, reducing sugar, and incorporating fresh sides like grilled vegetables or a green salad can make it a healthier option. Its vibrant flavors and cultural significance make Philippine BBQ a beloved dish, blending taste with tradition.
