The Only Kind of Spam That I Actually Enjoy!
When I lived in San Diego I always laughed when I saw Spam on a menu. Canned meat? Served in a restaurant? Because there is a huge Hawaiian presence in the Southern California region a lot of places that serve plate lunches there offer Spam. The first time I had a grilled Spam sandwich I was blown away with the taste of it; I expected it to taste rubbery or have an extremely salty taste but it was a lot better than I expected. Now there are tons of different flavors of Spam to choose from but for grilling or making a pan-fried sandwich, the original flavor is the best one to use. This isn't the healthiest thing to eat on a regular basis because of the amount of sodium in it. A two ounce serving has 760 milligrams of sodium which is almost one third of what you should be consuming per day. Two ounces of Spam isn't a lot so it's extremely easy to exceed the recommended serving amount. A two ounce serving contains 170 calories, 15 grams of fat, 760 milligrams of sodium, 2 grams of carbohydrates and 7 grams of protein. When we tailgate I always grab a couple of the larger cans of Spam to grill; the taste is amazing and it makes for a nice change of pace from burgers. You need to thick-slice it to prevent it from breaking into pieces while grilling it and it really helps to have the grill as hot as possible so that it doesn't stick.
