- 1 cup soy sauce
- 1/2 cup rice vinegar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup pineapple juice
- 1 onion, sliced
- 6 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 tsp black peppercorns

Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine 1 cup soy sauce, 1/2 cup rice vinegar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup pineapple juice, sliced onion, minced garlic, bay leaves, and black peppercorns.
- Add the cubed pork belly to the marinade, ensuring it is fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat. Remove the pork belly from the marinade, reserving the marinade for later.
- Sear the pork belly in the pot until browned on all sides, then pour in the reserved marinade. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the pork is tender and the sauce has thickened.
- Serve the Hawaiian Pork Belly Adobo over cooked white rice, garnished with chopped green onions. Enjoy!
