There are two types of pork asado found in the Philippines: one that is sweet and salty, seasoned with Chinese Five spice, and the other that is slowly stewed in tomato sauce, citrus juice, and soy sauce. This recipe is for the latter. Typically, this version showcases thinly sliced pieces of pork shoulder. Given the size of the Suvie pans, however, we found it easier to cook pieces of pork instead of one large cut. Cooking this way also ensures that each piece cooks evenly.
