MIND BLOWING Lechon(Roast Pig) in Cebu Philippines! First Time Trying Roast Suckling Pig

When I asked about what foods to eat in the Philippines, most of my local friends said LECHON(Roast Suckling Pig), not just any Lechon, but Lechon from the city of Cebu.
In fact, they love it so much that they make every excuse to get a lechon. Whether they are partying for a birthday, a wedding, or even a day at the beach, the roast suckling pig MUST be present to make the best of the get-together.

I was stationed in the Philippines during the 80's, and my wife of 32 years is from Bulacaan so we have Lechon every year for her birthday party. The problem is the pigs in the US are raised to be leaner then in the PI, so (though still Masarup) they are not as good. Great vlog though, I stumbled on your vlog about Sprial and that is at the hotel I have been staying at when it was just called the Philippine Plaza in the 80's so I can't wait to get there and try it

[@seanogrady2629]

I ate Lechon at a Filipino friends house and they had this sauce made with chopped chicken liver...it was so good with Lechon.

[@lionhearted1969]

@Sean Ogrady...Cebu is the only place in the world that cook lechon into perfection even without the need for a sauce. That's why celebrity chef and TV host Anthony Bourdain declared it as the world's best. Only people outside Cebu who eat their lechon with a fancy sauce because the meat doesn't taste good without it. Many of my friends and relatives from Manila get their lechon from Cebu via air freight every time they have special occasions like birthday, wedding, conference, etc. They don't mind the extra expenses just for the Cebu lechon. People from all over fly to Cebu just for the lechon. Cebu lechon is the highest standard in roast pig.

[@giancarlorico6802]

[@experimenteks3974]

The taste of lechon can vary depending on the person cooking because of the spices, herbs, and seasoning used. My family always cook our own lechon and my great grandpa used to stuff the lechon belly with whole chicken that is also stuffed. The taste is really different. Great with rice. My favorite dip is garlic, vinegar, and those small spicy chilies. The soup I love that goes great with it is sinigang in my humble opinion. Carcar lechon is also great but Talisay City is also trying to steal that title from them.

@@gnikulodeon1999 cebu lechon does not need liver sauce. spicy vinegar is enough.

[@gnikulodeon1999]

Ellie Smiles Well you do have a point though, but me, I love my savory liver sauce so much, I need it on almost every fried or roasted pork dish.

[@rgrocafort]

@@elliesmiles6038 yes so delicious with vinegar

[@heyheyybonaaann]

YES I'VE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS FOR SO LONG!

[@walistamborider987]

[@scarletangel675]

You are the top ranking pork-eating vlogger seen on youtube! ...and for that, you are so loved by many! ....and perhaps hundreds of thousands of filipinos! Next time try RICO's lechon too

I love your videos. I love how you so much liked our food. Hoping to bump into you when you come back here in the Philippines. More Power.

[@textmachine09]

Just finished my cebu trip. And hands down CNT lechon is the best lechon in the philippines.

[@evilpagan2342]

In Germany they do this, too, at big celebrations like outdoor weddings. It’s call Spanferkel there and it’s the same concept. So deliciousssss!

[@gerrydelacruz8081]

Evil Pagan they said, PH got this kind tradition from Spanish. It was the way to impress during Fiesta and demote Islam.

[@carlchan0010]

Keep it up Mikey! Try going to Iloilo City the next time you come back to the Philippines.

[@hansonyang375]
