EPIC FOOD TRIP: Philippines Lechon

in food •  7 years ago 

Lechon is a Spanish name. Must come from the Spaniards being in the Philippines for 397 years. We do a roasted pig similar in Virginia, where I am from in the states. The joke is we eat all of the pig, except the squeal! That is the noise a pig makes, we have not found a way to eat that. The Lechon baboy is great. I also love the chicken and turkey version. I have yet to eat lechon baca.

I'm curious about the squeal, is it bitter in taste or kinda gross? Never taste that before too lol. You gotta try lechon baca mate. Ive got to taste once 5 years ago, ill never forget the taste.

I would really love to try it. Not many places in this area has beef cows.
