philippine pork adobo -crockpot

Updated on Jul 10, 2016

I was new to Filipino Adobo and tried this easy version. The vinegar & soy taste are entirely different than south of the border adobo. I used meaty country style pork ribs - NOT baby back ribs. Bone in pork shoulder or even a sliced pork butt work work well. Adapted from a recipe by Life's Ambrosia.

How To Make philippine pork adobo -crockpot

  • Step 1
    Line crockpot with liner bag or lightly spray with cooking spray. Place slices of onions in bottom of crockpot. I do this to help prevent the meat from sticking to the liner.
  • Step 2
    Lightly season both sides of the pork with salt and ground pepper. Place on top of onions.
  • Step 3
    Spread the garlic, peppercorns, bay leaves evenly over the pork. Pour in the soy sauce and vinegar.
  • Step 4
    Cover and set on high. Check at approx 4 hours. The pork was very tender at that point without falling completely apart.
  • Step 5
    Serve atop cooked rice. Garnish with green onions, cilantro. I also sprinkled with crushed red pepper flakes.
