Pork Bicol Express has the entire characteristic that I enjoy in a pork dish. It is tender, creamy, and tasty. In addition, it has that good amount of heat that can awaken my taste buds. This recipe that I am sharing today will give you a delicious and spicy Bicol Express that is worthy for that extra cup or so of rice that you will be having.
