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.
