I was the cameo white boy at a Filipino birthday. My friend had a food spread like no other. Prior to the party, I was very familiar with pancit, lumpia, adobo, and a few other classics. While getting some food, I stumbled across sisig. Most amazing food ever. Definitely my top 3 favorite dishes in the world. If westerners can get past what it is made of and just try it, they will be floored. Salty, sweet, spicy, and sour perfectly mixed with different textures. So at the party rolled up to me and asked how I was liking the food. I told him, what is this one (sisig)? He told me, but then said, "you know what it's made of?" I told him, "I could care less, it is absolutely amazing!"

Sisig. My FAVORITE!!! Thumbs up if you love sisig too! I've only had it a handfull of times when I was in the Philippines, but I've made it a few times for Pacquiao fight parties, back in the USA. I have to keep some for myself before heading to the party, because I know there won't be any to take home. My method takes some 3 hours to prep and I source a leftover Lechon head to start. I have no other choice but to use some pork chop to make volume for serving several people. 2 ears from the Lechon isn't enough to start, so I do buy raw ears, boil them, then grill. The pork chops are grilled. I also grill some chicken livers as well. Because I don't want to make a huge mess when getting everything into tiny pieces, I have no choice but to hand cut everything into the small pieces it needs to be, without using a cleaver. The grilled chicken livers are mashed into paste before mixing everything together in a wok. When I serve, I use butter in a cast iron skillet, mix in the prepped sisig, and cook it down while parts of it get crunchy from frying in the butter. IMO, this is truly the pork treasure dish of the Philippines and more than just a food to go with beer. I do cook it with diced onions and a few chili peppers. By the time the chopping is done, my hand is really sore, but the results are worth it! SARAP NA SARAP NAMAN!!!!!

Looks tasty! And no wonder that Bourdain was your idol! He was an amazing man who encouraged people to give other cultures and foods a chance. He opened up the world to so many. Bourdain once said, "Your body is not a temple, it's an amusement park. Enjoy the ride." and "If I'm an advocate for anything, it's to move. As far as you can, as much as you can. Across the ocean, or simply across the river. Walk in someone else's shoes or at least eat their food. It's a plus for everybody." Shame what happened to him

AS A JEW YOU HAVE TO AVOID THIS❤❤❤❤

We'll definitely try sisig in out trip back to the Philippines.

BRO PORK IS NOT KOSHER OR HALAL....

No crispy SISIG.. no egg on top.. no mayonaisse and ginger ... Authenticity means Angeles city

aren't you eating only Kosher foods?

It's so great to see Drew back in the Phils. Been there a few times and every time I went I would fall in love with that country

I swear … another reason why Philippine cuisine is so UNDERRATED
