Filipino Pork Adobo is one of the most popular dishes and my favorite. It is easy to make and there are so many varieties you can make, such as using chicken, pork, and beef, and even use all three. Every time I cook Adobo, it brings back so many childhood memories of eating it with my family at dinner time, and at filipino gatherings/parties. The sauce is sweet and sour, and the meat is tender and buttery that it melts in your mouth.
