Inihaw na Atay ng Baboy in the food context refers to a Filipino dish consisting of grilled pork liver. This dish is a popular street food and barbecue item in the Philippines, known for its rich, savory flavor. The liver is typically marinated before grilling, often in a mixture of soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, and sometimes sugar or calamansi juice (a type of Philippine lime), which helps to tenderize the liver and add depth to its flavor. The marinated liver is then grilled over charcoal until it's cooked through but still tender inside, creating a smoky, slightly charred exterior.
