It’s my first time buying this and to be honest, I didn’t even know there is such a thing.. like if there is a Lechon manok and Lechon baboy or if you prefer the smaller Lechon pork belly - there is also Lechon baka. So I tried it. The meat was marinated with the right ingredients and the right amount of saltiness. Overall, very good. You should try this!

It's very convenient to bake the marinated food directly in the oven.
