Pineapple juice and soy sauce pork

The taste of this dish resembles the popular southern Filipino recipe known as humba. The texture of the meat is a big factor for the success of this dish. The meat should be as tender as possible. This can be done in 2 ways: simmer the meat for a long time or use a pressure cooker. Either way will work. However, I will go to the simmer route for this recipe.

Although this dish is really good, let me remind everyone to eat this in moderation. The fat from the pork can literally melt in your mouth if done the right way – as good as it might sound, try to control yourself though.
