Tips on How to Make Pork Adobo with Pineapple:

• I like to use pork butt for a good mix of meat and fat but feel free to swap with pork loin if you prefer a leaner cut or pork belly if you want a generous layer of fat.
• To amp up flavor, sear the pork on medium-high heat until lightly browned.
• To cook off the strong acid taste, allow the vinegar to boil uncovered and without stirring for a few minutes before adding the soy sauce.
