ASADO
This is another recipe that my mother-in-law many years ago. She was a fantastic cook and I learned so much from her. Of course, she never used a recipe so I just had to watch and guess the measurement amounts. After some trial and error, I got my recipes as close to hers as possible. Of course, no one cooks as good as mama,...

Steps:
- 1. Prepare the red chili sauce: Rinse chili pods and place in a large pot. Put enough water to cover pods. Cover and bring to a boil over medium heat and boil @ 20 minutes. Press peppers down occasionally to make sure they are covered with water. Remove from heat. Do not discard the liquid.
- 2. Using tongs, remove each chili pod from pot, remove the stem and place the chili pods into a blender. (I do not remove the seeds....it's your choice) Add the 'Red Chili Sauce Seasonings'.
- 3. Blend until smooth. You will need to add a little of the water that you boiled the peppers in to get the right consistency. It should be a glue-like consistency.
- 4. Prepare the Pork: Season the meat with garlic salt and pepper..
- 5. Put the flour and the other Pork Seasonings' into a large ziploc bag. Add the meat and shake until well coated with the flour.
- 6. In a large skillet, heat 2 or 3 tablespoons of oil and brown the meat (in batches) until no longer pink but not completely done. Stir occasionally to keep meat from sticking. Add a little more oil with each batch so that the meat will brown. Remove each batch to a large pot.
- 7. Once the meat is browned and placed in the large pot, add the remaining flour and chopped onion;stir well to combine. Pour in the chili sauce and 1 cup (or a little more) of liquid from boiling the peppers, reduce heat to medium low, cover and simmer for @ 1 ½ hr. Stir often to keep from sticking.This should have the consistency of a thick, red gravy.
ASADO DE PUERCO (MEXICAN PORK STEW)
An authentic Mexican pork stew made with dried chiles, no chili powder here! The guajillo chiles add a very smoky flavor while the ancho chiles add a touch of smoky sweetness. To add another level of flavor, we always top our puerco asado with sliced onions marinated in fresh lemon juice.

Steps:
- Combine pork cubes, 1/2 cup water, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a Dutch oven. Cover and cook over medium heat for 20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes. Uncover, increase heat to medium-high and cook, stirring constantly, until water evaporates. Continue cooking until the pork browns in its rendered fat, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cut tops off the dried chiles and remove seeds. Heat chiles in a large skillet over low heat until they start to soften. Do not toast. Place chiles in a bowl of hot water and soak for 20 minutes.
- Remove pork and set aside. Do not wash, wipe out, or clean the Dutch oven.
- Transfer chiles to a blender, reserving soaking water. Add cilantro, chicken bouillon, peppercorns, garlic, cinnamon stick, Mexican oregano, thyme, cumin seeds, bay leaves, and cloves. Pour in 1 cup soaking water and blend until smooth. Add 1 more cup soaking water, season with salt, and blend until completely smooth.
- Melt lard in the Dutch oven. Carefully add blended chile mixture and scrape up all browned bits. Bring to a boil and add pork. Reduce heat and cover partially, leaving about 1 inch open. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until sauce has thickened and reaches the desired consistency, 15 to 20 minutes.

ASADO
Asado, a complex, salty-sour dish of pork shoulder slowly cooked in tomato sauce flavored with garlic, soy sauce and calamansi (a small citrus fruit), is a dish frequently eaten in Pampanga, said to be the culinary capital of the Philippines, and it is often served at large gatherings. This recipe comes from Chad and Chase Valencia, brothers and owners of the Los Angeles restaurant Lasa, who serve their mother's asado alongside turkey and honey-roasted ham at Thanksgiving. The trick to the asado's rich depths is evaporated milk; for a little extra salt and heft, you can add grated queso de bola, the nutty Filipino cheese served during the holidays. Don't skip the overnight refrigeration step, which really allows the flavors to deepen.

Steps:
- Divide the pork shoulder into 4 pieces. Pat the pieces dry with paper towels and liberally season all over with salt.
- Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed pot (choose one with a lid, such as a Dutch oven) over medium-high heat. Sear the pieces of pork on all sides until brown, working in batches if necessary to avoid crowding the pot. Transfer the pork to a plate and pour off all but 2 tablespoons of fat from the pot.
- Reduce the heat to medium, add the onions and garlic to the pot, and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 4 to 5 minutes.
- Deglaze the pot with 4 cups water and the tomato sauce, then add the calamansi juice, soy sauce and bay leaf and stir to combine. Raise the heat to high and bring everything to boil. Add the browned pork and any juices that have accumulated back to the pot, and reduce the heat to medium-low. (You are looking for a gentle simmer, not a rolling boil.) Cover and simmer until the meat is tender, 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Remove the pot from the heat and let the meat cool in the covered pot until it reaches room temperature.
- Transfer the meat to a separate container, leaving the braising liquid in covered pot. Refrigerate both overnight. The next day, skim the fat off the top of the liquid in the pot; discard the fat.
- Heat the braising liquid to a simmer. Add 1/4 cup of the grated cheese, if using, and the evaporated milk, stirring constantly until well incorporated. Taste and add more cheese if desired to add saltiness and thicken slightly. Season with salt, if needed, and keep warm over low heat.
- Slice the chilled pork shoulder into 1/4-inch slices, cutting against the grain of the meat. Place pork slices in the asado braising liquid and heat until warmed through. Serve hot.

WEST TEXAS ASADO
On a trip this summer to Odessa (west Texas) I ate at a Mexican restaurant with friends and one of them said he would order for me. What I got was Asado with two fried eggs (sunny side up) on top of it. Now this was HOT & SPICY but tasted out of this world. I was glad to have the runny yolks just to lay my tongue in ever now and then. It was served wit good rice and beans and flour tortillas. I've tried 3 or 4 recipes trying to dupe that Asado and finally this recipe is just about spot on. A friend found it on the net and sent it to me, it's not my original recipe but I have made it just a few days ago! I did add some of the pepper seeds to get that heat but that's up to you. If you like authentic and HOT and Spicy, this is the recipe for you.....enjoy and don't forget the two fried eggs on top.
