Pork Sisig I

Allow me to get on a soap box for a minute. We appear to be in the minority in this world that wastes food. I get tired of the attitude, “Do you know what’s in a hot dog?” With that in mind…

I like pork sisig so Sandy bought me the pig parts to experiment with the dish on my own. I know it doesn’t sound good but trust me this is to die for.

1. Boil the pig’s face in water with bay leaf, salt, whole peppercorns & garlic.

2. Remove and toss in a marinade of soy sauce, vinegar & kalamansi juice.

3. Throw on a grill while periodically brushing with the reserved marinade.

4. Remove from the grill and chop into small pieces.

5. Throw in an iron skillet with diced onion and toss until you get a fair amount of caramelization.

Total time 3 hrs.

As Sandy enjoys it, I quietly pat myself on the back. That is until I realize she’ll never order pork sisig in a restaurant again and I’ll have to prepare it for her anytime she wants.
