I’m Thai/Chinese but I gotta say Filipino Spaghetti is one of my favorite foods. It’s a love or hate kind of thing with people. I absolutely love it. The Philippines is one of my favorite countries to vacation.

When I was about 19, I moved from Michigan to Seattle with my then-boyfriend. A co-worker of his invited us to dinner and the co-worker's wife was Filipina, and she made spaghetti for us. I remember being surprised by the hot dogs and ketchup but it was really good! Almost 30 years later i find outI it wasn't just her crazy recipe but a legit cultural meal!

I work with a nurse from the Philippines and I love when she goes home because she comes back with some of the best food items I’ve never heard of before.

I worked with so many Filipino nurses. Potluck was amazing because someone always brought pancit

I was stationed in San Diego and when I arrived I remember being told "welcome to the Filipino Navy." I greatly enjoyed my time there and enjoyed even more all the food and culture I experienced.

Oh my goodness Sam ! I think you just earned me the grandma of the year award. My 10 year old grandson loves the Jollibee Spaghetti. I had to improvise and used Nathan's hotdogs that had been previously grilled and frozen . It was a hit with when whole family. 😋 Thank you so much.

I just made this for the first time tonight. I did the half recipe as it was just my wife and I. This was delicious! I used regular hot dogs as I could not find the red ones. For that banana sauce, I was surprised to find it at Walmart. It was over in the Asian food section. It was $0.85. We had the spaghetti, garlic bread and a side salad. An inexpensive meal, simple to do and tasted great. Thanks Sam!!!

Used to work some young Filipino ladies. Always bringing us food from home, always fantastic. Lumpia and pancit were probably my two favorites though everything (except the balut) was amazing. Going to their website, I find that Jollibee has a restaurant about 1/2 from me, here in NJ! I'll be visiting them someday. Their chicken looks great, and the chicken sandwiches look even better! Pineapple? Aw HELL yeah!

As a Filipino myself, I wish you did the Filipino accent!!!! I would of been dying on the floor laughing and loving it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My wife is Filipino and she makes that spaghetti….. It’s delicious and when I take some to work my coworkers go crazy over it!!!!! Keep up the great work love the Chanel!!!!

My wife of 33 years is a Filipina and it's the only spaghetti she will eat. I'm from West Virginia where we had a large Italian American population ( our local gas stations served calzones and Stromboli) and like the traditional stuff. Filipino hot dogs are different than what we are used to. BTW, Jollibee chicken is pretty good.

Being ex-Navy and stationed in SoCal, everything he mentioned about Filipinos is spot on! 💯😊

My Filipina wife and I have been together for 27 years. I love Jolly Bee chicken, but can’t appreciate the sweet spaghetti. Still I appreciate you and the boys taking it on. Exploring different cultures’ food is one of my favorite things. Keep up the good work!

My wife is Filipina... all Filipino spaghetti is sweet, to the point my wife thought I was making pasta sauce wrong when we first started dating because wasn't that sweet. And gravy for dipping with fried chicken is absolutely a thing over there.

Im a Gen X Filipino and the story behind the Jollibee Spaghetti is that since our Filipino version of Spaghetti is sweet it caters to children. Back in the 80s it was called 'Jollibee Spaghetti Kiddie Meal' since kids like the sweetness of it.

I am Fil nurse here in the states and I wanna thank everyone with your comments on embracing our culture through our food and warm hospitality.

Start with the recommended amount of garlic.....then triple it. That's how this house rolls. Thanks for an awesome channel, StCG!!!!

That clear pasta pot was really cool

My girlfriend is Filipino and let me tell you how much she’s taught me about food. Jolibee is incredible, the spaghetti is almost a dessert dish to me. But nonetheless incredible. Filipinos are the shit!!

I've been with Filipino friends for decades. About 8 years ago, my gorgeous Filipina friend taught me some Tagalog. Here is my first sentance that I belted out: "Carepaul, Paul! You mite sleep and Paul in the sweemming Paul!" Bee Jolly!

My wife uses Eden cheese, which is a processed cheese like American, and more garlic. She also mixes together in a pan prior to serving. The jar sauce is good, she uses a couple different ones depending on availability. It's the sweet that really sets it apart. She also says thanks for sharing this!

I'm Filipino and I approve this video. Great Job of making Jolly Spaghetti.

This is a staple in children’s parties, together with fried chicken. That’s how Jollibee came up with this menu, to cater to kids. Of course, those kids are old now and we still love them! 😅

I am a missionary living in Mindanao Philippines. The main things at Jollibee is chicken and spaghetti. Most of there food is sweet. Including the bread. Also don't forget the pork.

"You know what I'm sick of? You f**kin youth" LMFAO 🤣😂 best damn thing I've heard, I think maybe EVER!! Love you guys!!

Had a wonderful trip for my birthday in San Diego. One highlight was when Sam jumped on the grill at NNT while we were dining. You're the man, Sam!

Between the Hong Kong Videos and this Filipino Spaghetti, I've been obsessing for more Asian cuisine lately. This looks amazing!

Always love your channel. I am a San Diego native currently residing here in the Philippines. Yes, the filipinos have been a big part of San Diego since forever. I love San Diego for what it is- a magical place of mixed cultures and wonderful people from all over. You just have a passion for cooking but more than that- you always have a story to tell. And THAT is content el supremo, my friend. CHEERS ( miss the ol' 619)..

As a Filipino my recipe for spaghetti is to use skinless Filipino longanisa meat and jamonado instead of ground beef and hotdogs. They are already sweet so you don’t have to use brown sugar. I wish we had a Jolibee here in Atlanta!

Cruise ships make tons of this stuff for the crew (as there are lots of Filipinos of course). Some of the crew from other nations either love or hate it. I loved the stuff.

The Filipino are not the ones who would be offended. It’s those who want them to be. Be yourself, always

The way u cooked it is perfect

Jollibee hits! The mango pies are crazy good@

That clear pot is awesome, way to go Max.

Omg these comments are just all so positive and sweet! Absolutely love it!

Tis why I love this channel. Easy things to make that are not the same everyday thing!!

It's picnic season.Time to make stuff for picnic's. Baked beans from scratch.

Finally! Reppin’ for the Filipinos! 👏 Jollibee spaghetti is pretty good but my mom’s is way better. I’ll try your recipe.. Thanks Sam

Just made this last night. It is strangely addicting. Really like this.

Love Max's clear pot, that is so cool. You guys are the best.

Sheldon Coopers favorite !

I'm Filipino and I can't stand meat with some sweetness, but I love Rao's pasta sauce so I'm going to try this version minus the banana sauce and brown sugar. Ha! And I need a knife.

When the cheese was added, there was a very satisfying feeling. Like I can head to sleep already. 😂

Thank you for respecting and loving Filipino spaghetti and not being the usual foreigner/foreign vlogger aping around pretending they're risking their life and dignity trying it. Filipino food is a result of colonization and using what ingredients were available at that time. It's NOT Italian. It's Filipino.

Max's clear pot was cool!

Absolutely love this!

Great video - good job on using the TJ hotdogs, the banana ketsup and brown sugar.

Hmmm love this spaghetti! Will give it a try.

Great video!! Thanks Sam

In our filipino household, we don't really use brown sugar.... we use ✨condensed milk ✨makes the spaghetti just as sweet, but also creamier.

I absolutely have to try this one.

I just saw Banana Ketchup on the shelf at a local Supermarket, now I have to get it. Thank you.

This is my last comment to attempt to win a knife. Hope it’s successful!

Wow! I’ve never gone because my kids refuse to. I’m getting new kids and making that spaghetti tonight. 🎉🎉 😂😂

Congrats Sam! Yes, I’m a Flip (hahaha, I learned eons ago that older folks hate the word “Flip” because back in their days, that was derogatory, for me it's just a word. Pardon Po Manong and Manang) and a subscriber for quite a while until I noticed one day, that 75% of the channels I've subscribed to disappeared. Yeah yeah yeah, this video is 3 weeks old and I just now saw it. I hope you’ll challenge yourself to make other Filipino dishes like “Sisig” pronounced as Sea-Sig. It is one of the favorites of foreigners visiting the Philippines. Damn, those Chicken Joy looks so good…

Love this! I'm Filipino, BTW. The urban Filipino (born, raised and educated in Metro Manila or any major city, especially the more affluent ones) might pronounce "spaghetti" the same way a native English speaker would. It's commonly pronounced "is'pageti" (tip: open your mouth) by those who don't normally converse in English and it usually comes with a regional accent. Say, "pride cheeken" (again, open your mouth).

Thank you sam for recreational pinoy spaghetti by the way it's already 4 years since I subscribed to your channel

I had never heard of Jolibee before, but managed to find some in the Toronto area and had a chance to it try yesterday. The chicken was fantastic, the spaghetti was interesting… the taste reminds of Heinz canned spaghetti with hot dogs thrown in. I also managed find the Juicy Red hotdogs at a Filipino market, but haven’t tried them yet. Thanks again Sam for expanding my culinary experiences!

Filipino guy here. I would say jollibee's spaghetti is toned down filipino spaghetti to save you guys from diabetes. I swear I dont know anyone using brown sugar it's always condensed milk and also all purpose cream if you want to feel a little bit boujee. The cheese is called "eden cheese" it's close to american cheese though some use parmesan, also some melt the cheese with the souce. If you can find "magic sarap" put some on the souce😂😂😂

Tender Juicy is the Filipino hot dog brand that is mostly used in my area. My go to Jollibee order is the super spagjoy meal which has a full order of spaghetti, 2 pieces of chicken joy (I get spicy), gravy, rice, fries and a pineapple drink. I'll also order 2 cheesy yumburgers to put in the fridge for a quick lunch the next day. Can't forget the peach mango pies as well. Even though that's 2 or 3 meals for me I still feel like a tabachoy for typing that. 😂

Sam’s accents are some of my favorite things in the vids!

“Quick! The GARDENERS are coming!” Hahahaha 😅, wet my pants.

The clear pot is awesome! Also hotdogs in spaghetti?!?! Count me in lol

Love Jollibee!! Thanks for this video😍😍

love this new technique cooking hot dog first. I always cook it together with the garlic onions and beef grinded

I really need to try this! I’m inside and have only been there once.

I'm an expat living in the Philippines. I just watched this with my Filipina wife and she was cracking up. Thanks 😂

Interesting, Ive never of this before. It’s worth a try.

Im not a Filipino and i can say Filipino spaghetti 🍝 ahh to die for and Filipino cuisine in general hay sobrang sarap kaya araw araw Filipino food kinakain at niluluto namin haha lalo na ung tuyo at sinangag jusko sarap sa tag ulan.! 😂❤

When moms are the best spaghetti specialty for kids if you taste again you remembering your childhood eating spaghetti 🍝

Thank you for another great video, dinner idea, and mostly the laughs!!

In Britain, Australia, and New Zealand there is the Saveloy Sausage, which is also red and very tasty!

I don’t watch your videos to win stuff I watch just for pure entertainment and enjoyment. Plus I learn a thing or two. Love you guys!

Filipino subscriber here from Florida USA! Thank you for appreciating our food.. ❤

This looks delicious!

Filipino sub here, I always love to see people trying Filipino food and enjoying it

Newbie here from PH .. Jollibee spag are my childhood comfort food and until now with my baby ... im craving right now 💜💜🫶🫶🫶

Very interesting, may have to try this 😎

I'm going to try this. I'm always looking for ways to change things up. Thanks Guy's.

This is like my moms old recipe with few tweaks. Instead of spaghetti sauce, she uses regular tomato sauce, catsup, tomato paste, liver spread, red peppers, carrots, hotdogs, and ground pork/beef!

The recipes are always great, and you continuously bring the passion, humor, knowledge, and enthusiasm which makes this one of my favorite channels. Thank you!

My friend from the Philippines is familiar with this and she said she love this restaurant!

Another great video - food looks delicious as always!

"There's nothing about this I don't like" is when you know it's good!

Loved the video! As a Filipino american, appreciate the love for our cuisine ❤

You are the best Sam! Try cooking sisig next time 😋

You could make merch that says "quick the gardeners are coming". Also, I'm noticing Max is definitely knows what is aesthetically pleasing. You got a good player on your team.

The largest concentration of Filipinos in the US is in Daly City (next door to San Francisco). They even debuted a new Filipino inspired Spam at the Lucky store next to the first US Jollibee. That came in 1998. My daughter loves their food!

The Rao's and banana ketchup combo has been my go-to for spaghetti sauce

Another alternative would be using condensed milk instead of brown sugar as the sweetener. It would match the light orange color of Jollibee spaghetti instead of a bright red one. I'm digging that clear pasta pot by the way.

In the PH, we have a lot of versions of spaghetti. I like to replace the ground beef with corned beef. Sometimes we use ground pork. Others put all-purpose cream or condensed milk to make it a lighter red sauce. Kids will always compare it to Jollibee spaghetti. LOL

Time to do a road trip episode to the Philippines and show us all the different foods they have.

My wife is Filipino and I made this dish , ill have to add hotdogs next time and brown sugar, masarap 😋

i’m filipino and theres a jollibees down the street that ive never tried now i have to!

As good as the recipe sounds, you kept reminding me of a bit Buddy Hackett did on the Tonight Show about Leo the Filipino.

If it wasn’t for this channel, I don’t know how I’d learn what the rest of people eat and how to make a close version to it.

Filipino, new subscriber here! Easy Peasy Filipino Spaghetti! Yum! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

As a Native American, I too love Jollibee. I'm glad there is a couple here in the Dallas Area. I'm on the Fort Worth side, but it's worth the 40 minute drive. Thanks for the video.

Never expected to see a Filipino/Jollibee spaqghetti recipe on this channel when I subbed but as a Fil-Am - I am floored that it turned out as nice at it did. Grew up eating hotsilog and using banana ketchup, so this was a trip.

I could eat spaghetti multiple times a week and this is definitely on the menu now 👌
