Exact Calk results
These are the exact Calk results for the two versions shown above.

What causes the difference
The portion size is the same, but the ingredients and preparation differ.
Protein: Chicken breast → Pork spare ribsRub: Herb marinade → Sweet glazeGrilled vegetables: Zucchini → CornAdditions: + ColeslawSauce: + Sweet BBQ
- Same grill, different cut: herb-marinated chicken breast (~165 kcal/100 g) versus sweet-glazed pork spare ribs (~300) — the fat is in the meat, not the flame.
- Sugar rides in twice on the higher-calorie plate: a sweet glaze baked onto the ribs plus a spoon of sweet BBQ sauce on top.
- Grilled zucchini, pepper and asparagus versus mayo-dressed coleslaw and cornbread — both classic BBQ sides, very different densities.
