Like an American meatloaf, this Pinoy pork dish is very easy to prepare and can be made ahead of time especially when expecting company.

  • Mix together the ground pork, luncheon meat, chorizo de bilbao, pickle, raisin, eggs, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Form the mixture into 2 logs and wrap with aluminum foil. Place the wrapped logs in a baking dish.

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour.

  • Set the meatloaves aside to rest. Carefully drain the drippings from the baking dish into a small saucepan placed over medium heat. Stir the soy sauce and corn flour into the drippings; bring to a boil. Cook the mixture at a boil, stirring continually, until the sauce is thick, 5 to 7 minutes. Unwrap the meatloaves and slice; serve the sauce over sliced meatloaf.

I had ground pork and chorizo on hand and did an AR search and this came up. I did not have the canned luncheon meat. My hubby and son liked this but we all thought it was really salty. I even used low-sodium soy sauce. I cannot imagine how salty it would be with Spam (or similar) in it too. I didn't even add any salt (rarely do). For leftovers we nixed the sauce and used Heinz 57 for sauce. It was much better. So I'll make this again but without the sauce. Neither my son nor my husband could tell this had raisens (I used golden ones) and they loved the pickles in it! I'll have to ask my Filipino neighbor how authentic this is. Read More

It is much better to steam it that's what we do at home. The meat holds the added ingredients better. What's more we put cooled embutido logs in the freezer and if it's tile to eat it we cut them into One inch slices and fry/bake them. Read More
