Do you believe that lechon is an ordinary dish in party?NOPE..Here are some reasons why Lechon Baboy is a world class dish. The most delicious part of lechon baboy is its crispy skin; with its reddish brown color, you can't deny that it will really taste good in the palate. People really love eating the crispy skin first before they start eating the meat. And you know guys the secret of some chef why people love lechon very much is the aroma of LEMON GRASS.By the way guys, if you want to know how much exactly if you'd like to order 1 whole lechon it cost P7500.

Yes! It is possible here in the Philippines. It is cooked in a bamboo tree or a tube made of steel stuck from the mouth of the pig up to the tail part. It will be cooked up above a charcoal like were grilling steaks. Then turning it over and over and over for 3-4 hours or more until the pig skin become golden brown/red.

It is one of the famous food served in any occasions here in the Philippines. Especially those special occasions, lechon is always present in the table. And one thing more, we have this Parade of Lechon(Parada ng Lechon). It's a Festival of Lechons. They will be paraded on the streets moving around with so many locals and visitors. The streets would really be full of expectators. But for now all kinds of festival here in the Philippines are all cancelled since last year.

I’m sure it’s delicious but the fact that it looks like it did when it was alive and running around kind of makes me queasy.

Haha. But if you've got to taste it, you will crave for more. Especially when the lechon was well cooked, it really taste good. What part i love most, in the crunchy skin dip in lechon sauce.

@angelitovillegas To each his own! I prefer a nice big chef salad. The pig in the ham there is not recognizable at least.

@HomewardBound you'll be used to lechon if you lived here. But of course we have our own choices and likes.

But due to ASF, the price of the big really increases. And were having a problem on the supplies of pigs nowadays.

I don't eat pork any longer but when offered a crispy lechon skin, I'd probably take a bite.
