Looking for a Pork Adobo Recipe

I have made chicken adobo (with coconut milk) many times with very good results. This last week, I tried the following recipe for pork adobo:

www.saveur.com/article/Recipes/Pork-Adobo/

And I was not very pleased with it. I thought it would be a slam dunk, but it just disappointed me.

Does anyone know of a good pork adobo recipe they can point me to?

Hi! Can I ask what country are you from? The term adobo is very common in mine, but I’d never eat one with coconut milk! I’d just go with the combination of soy sauce and vinegar.

Unwarranted tip: Add hard boiled eggs when it is almost done, for a more exciting meal!

I’m in the US; the adobo I am trying to find in Filipino.

Filipinos like to make cooking videos on YouTube - if you search "Filipino pork adobo" on there you'll get many. They have a distinctive accent so you'll easily avoid the pretenders. It's a fairly simple dish so it suits the video format.

IMO what went wrong with that first recipe you found is not enough soy sauce and it needs to simmer for much longer.

Not sure if the exact item you are looking for as I am unfamiliar with chicken adobo.

However if it has anything to do with adobo sauce then I can’t recommend pork Al pastor enough.

First result from a google but there are plenty that work. heygrillhey.com/smoked-al-pastor/

It’s tacos instead of a dish but still is amazing and you can crock pot it if need be instead of smoking it on the grill.

Mind if I ask what chicken adobo recipe you are following so I have a better understanding of what you’re looking for. (Also for a fully selfish reason of trying what you are talking about)

One comment on the meat - every pork adobo I’ve ever had is a mix of something like pork shoulder with pork belly.
