I am looking at some chicken and pork, and dreaming of the good old days of Subic Bay and monkey meat on the stick.

Anyone know the recipe?

TIA

Yes.

1.  Combine monkey, stick, and fire.
2.  Eat monkey off stick.

Does monkey really taste like chicken?

BTW Monkey meat is just a nickname. It is not actually monkey meat. It is however, the cheapest cut of beef that you can find. Heavily seasoned and grilled. It has been rumoured that monkey meat on a stick is sometimes made of dog or horse meat.

Wow. My buddy was just telling me about this the other day. He was in the Navy and said that they used to get off the ship and head directly for the meat on a stick dude. They called it monkey meat too. He also mentioned a beer that was native and pretty good.

That would be San Miguel or Red Horse. Funny thing about Filipino beer is that, quality control has a lot left to be desired. There are bottles where alcohol content is minimal and time where 2 bottles will get you drunk as a skunk.

[b]Philippine street vendor style "Monkey Meat"
[/b]

The marinade you're looking for is 7Up,believe it or not.  Usually the meat is pork sliced thinly, "woven" onto a wooden skewer and marinated overnight in 7-Up, garlic, soysauce or whatever other spice suits your taste.  
I personally like to add a little cayenne pepper to give a little "hot" to the meat. You can use monkey if you like, but it's a darker meat and you need to marinate longer to get rid of the wild taste.

San Miguel would be the most likely culprit although if your buddy prefered a malt liquor, then it would be Red Horse.......But if you wanted to get blitzed on the cheap, stop by Mariposa and have a pitcher or 3 of Bullfrog or Mojo.

San Miguel is the one he was talking about. He has so many funny ass sea stories about his time in. I missed out on a lot by not joining the service. [:(]

Yeah, you missed out on the clap, and some other social diseases.......

Actually it was a different experience, but you don't pull into Subic Bay any more.


Most of the stories you have heard are probably true.

First of all, where does one buy genuine monkey meat?  That seems to big the biggest hurdle to jump.

Plus, monkeys are expensive and illegal to import except for scientific purposes.  I've heard of monkey farms down south, but I've never confirmed this.

And we don't all eat dogs either, dammit!

(OK, maybe the people who lived in the province where Clark Air Base was located ate dogs, but they were weird f**kers anyway.)

Hmm, roast loin of chihuahua...

You want to go really native with Filipino cuisine. You need to try balut. That's all I'm saying.


Sad, but my being Filipino, I know the history. I know the language, I can even understand the dialect from my parents province. I know the culture. However, I do not know how to cook very many Filipino dishes.

nothing to be ashamed of LT, cooking Filipino
dishes is a woman's job, all you need is to
find a nice Filipina woman, but I know your not
attracted to Filipina women. [LOL]
