Pork Barbecue

A TV host from a cable TV show once said, that, there’s nothing more delectable than a scent of a meat that turned brown. I definitely agree with that. Starting at 3P.M., Blumentrit  and P. Florentino St. becomes smoky avenue. Scent of grilled meat, fat and innards ascend in the air signaling customers that the barbecue stand is open for business.

I didn’t try grilled innards this time. I bought one piece of pork barbecue on each barbecue stand in Blumentrit and in P. Florentino St corner Tacio St. The pork barbecue at Blumetrit traditionally grill their barbecue sweet compared to the pork barbecue sold at P. Florentino St. corner Tacio St. which has dominant soy sauce, garlic and a bit of spicy taste. You can check my previous post on Isaw to see how the meat and innards is prepared.

There’s no perfect barbecue around my place. You can’t have the size and the taste you want on the same stick. Gravy and dipping enhances the taste of the barbecue. Unfortunately, spiced vinegar is the only option bundled with your grilled meat on both barbecue store.
