It’s just something about watching two different cultures trying new dishes for the first time that is so intriguing. This time it’s the battle of the smothered chicken.. well Chicken Adobo vs American Smothered chicken. Have you had either dish? How do you make them? Leave us a comment below!

(Chicken adobo is a popular Filipino national dish featuring chicken slow-simmered in a savory and tangy sauce made from vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, bay leaves, and black peppercorns)

  1. she said thank you so much for allowing y’all taste for telling the truth, I roll off and fell off the bed😂😂😂

  2. That first adobo is pale af.. I am OFFENDED! Where's the sauce? Why is this adobo so pale? Ladyyyy may our ancestors haunt you! 😔 I KENNAAAAT

  3. The first lady who cooked chicken adobo with chicken thighs yet there's no skin on the chicken 😂 It's not how you cook chicken adobo with chicken thigh that has no skin and the adobo has less sauce 😅

  4. why are these adobos lightskinned. i bet they used kikoman for this competition…. also i think they were ill informed that this competition is judging chicken and sauce altho filipinos always looking for rice is a normal reaction xD

  5. I have roots from North Carolina and Virginia and we fry our chicken first before we smother it. This is stew chicken with gravy. 😅 respectfully.

  6. Filipino Adobo didn't came from Spain, it's what the Spaniards called it when they saw Filipinos where preserving their meat in Vinegar and soy sauce. The Original Name of Adobo is "KILAW".

  7. I've watched three episodes from this channel but all 3 have been simple rage bait. I do not recommend to anyone unless you want to get heated or are uncultured. 🙂

  8. That adobo has more Brazilian than Filipino elements. Not to mention the pathetic rice portion. It probably taste good even amazing but calling it Filipino is like calling California rolls authentic Japanese.

  9. We all have different cuisine,,we have different way of cooking,,we have different taste..its very disrespectful to judge other people food,,, ofcourse we love eat our own..so no need to compare..very annoying.

  10. I like coconut milk in my adobo. The sauce with the coconut milk, soy sauce and vinegar is epic…I love adobo. I love American style smothered chicken too.

  11. Next episode should be kids or random people on the streets or chefs cook right there and server to strangers😂 . Because this is more of rage baiting videos 😂

  12. The filipino guy's dish looked like it slapped. I was kind of wishing he took the win. He also had a nice chill vibe. 😎

  13. You can't compare adobo to smothered chicken, they're not the same. Should of told the filipinos to make chicken with gravy. While filipino food can be great, it doesn't hit American taste buds. If you like it you like it, but if it's new to you it might not be something you like.

  14. Correction Adobo is not from Spain it's a local dish that preserves meat by putting citrus / tuba(coconut vinegar) it evolves when Chinese brought toyo(soy sauce) when Spanish arrived they were surprised that the island have this method of preserving foods SAME as their Adobar.
