Pork Barbeque
April 9, 2004
Filed under Filipino food, Meat recipes
No, we don’t fast during Lent. And no, we do not abstain from meat either. Despite having been raised Catholics, my husband and I long ago made a concious decision that no religious dogma and practice will be rammed down our children’s throats. And we try to be good examples to them. We do not see the relevance of fasting or abstention from meat with living virtuous lives.
For the past several years, we have made it a point to eat meat on Maundy Thursday and Good Friday. To make a point. And because we do not let abusive seafood wholesalers and retailers win the day. They can raise the prices of fish and other seafood as much as they want and we will not fall victims to their totally unimaginative way of making a few extra thousands. So, tonight we had pork barbeque for dinner. Marinated in my special concoction. Grilled over live coals and served with home-made achara (atsara).
About the bamboo skewers. Locally known as barbeque sticks, they come in different lengths and thicknesses. Use the long, thicker ones. These grilled pork barbeques constitute the main entree, not a cocktail fingerfood.

Ineng’s bbq is very good. Would you happen to know how they marinade their meat and chicken?
Huh?!?
I don’t see the relevance of your recipe with trying to abstain eating meat during Lent. I consider it as one’s personal sacrifice - so if you want to eat meat during Lent or everyday - go ahead suit yourself. You don’t have to lecture us about what you practice.
You mean you disagree. Why should that deprive me of the right to state my opinion — and in my blog too? How does disagreeing justify your arrogance?
Lecture you? I did not twist your arm to read what I wrote.
If you don’t believe in any religious dogma - so be it. You have all the right to do and eat what you want anytime. You have all the right to say whatever you want in your blog nor did you twist my arm to read what you wrote - having said that - I also have the right to express my opinion in your blog.
I have to admit this though, you’ve got plenty of good recipes.
“I also have the right to express my opinion in your blog.”
Opinion does not include telling me or anyone else what I have or do not have to do. Neither does it include getting nasty, on a personal level, with anyone who disagrees with you.
