Everyone went crazy over the crunchy version. Also, like any good cebu lechon, Marketman's Zubuchon does not need any sauce (not even toyo and calamansi). The flavor of the herbs and spices in the cavity of the pig, permeates thru the meat and skin (actually, even to the bone). Ergo, The best of the best pig ever is the wacky crunchy zubuchon!! ;-) Anton and Teny….Having had the opportunity to try several (including the early attempts) versions of zubuchons, including the ones served at the press lunch.

You should try it once. It's actually good. The simplicity of the mixture and it's unrefined texture actually brings out the lechon na lechon taste. And when you're munching the fatty parts, it'll kinda neutralize the greasy taste. I actually have gotten used to this combination because back there, I would always spend summertime or holy week in bantayan island. if you have not been there, you'll be surprised that they actually cook lechon on good fridays, as it is their town fiesta.
