In the heart of Filipino cuisine lies a harmonious blend of flavors and textures that captivates the senses. Among its culinary treasures, the Filipino Elvis sandwich stands out as a unique and delectable creation. This sandwich is an exquisite combination of sweet and savory, featuring a deep-fried pork chop nestled between slices of soft, fluffy pandesal. The pork chop is coated in a delectable batter infused with a symphony of spices, including garlic, pepper, and a hint of sweetness. When paired with the soft and airy pandesal, each bite offers a delightful contrast of textures, tantalizing the taste buds with every morsel. Accompanying the sandwich are three equally enticing recipes: a creamy and tangy coleslaw, a simple yet flavorful tomato-cucumber salad, and a sweet and tangy banana ketchup that adds an extra layer of complexity to the dish. Together, these recipes create a symphony of flavors that will leave you craving more.

Steps:
- Heat a griddle over medium heat. Butter the inside slices of each burger bun, then toast in the skillet until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Set aside.
- Heat a large skillet over low heat; pan-fry the bacon for 2 minutes, then increase heat to medium-high and continue to pan-fry until crispy, 5 to 7 minutes, turning often. Drain on paper towels and discard most of the bacon grease.
- Cut each banana lengthwise into long slices, about 4 inches in length. Pour the sugar into a small bowl, then add in the banana slices to coat both sides in sugar. Fry the banana slices in the same skillet over medium heat until caramelized, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Cook the burgers on a griddle over medium-high heat for 3 to 4 minutes per side, seasoning with salt and pepper. Press down firmly with a spatula to flatten the patties as they cook. A thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C).
- To assemble the burgers, lay down the bottom half the burger bun and spread on 1 tablespoon peanut butter. Place a burger patty on top, then add another tablespoon of peanut butter. Top with 2 to 3 slices of caramelized bananas, then 2 to 3 pieces of bacon. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon honey, then place the remaining burger bun on top.

THE ELVIS SANDWICH
The King's favorite sandwich. Not that it does not contain bacon or mayo or any other junk you may have heard of. Even Priscilla Presley has stated that she never saw Elvis eat it any other way than this.
