Costco's Seasoned Pork Shoulder Adobado is a pre-marinated pork shoulder prepared in the traditional Mexican adobado style, sold fresh by the pound from the service deli. The pork shoulder is coated in a rich adobo marinade—a vibrant blend of dried chiles (such as guajillo and ancho), vinegar, garlic, and warming spices like cumin and Mexican oregano—that tenderizes the meat and infuses it with deep, smoky, and tangy flavor.

This ready-to-cook product requires no preparation beyond bringing heat. It can be grilled on a flat-top or open grill for crispy, seared edges, slow-stewed in a pot for tender pulled-style results, or braised in the oven. The flavor profile is savory and complex with mild to moderate heat, making it an ideal choice for tacos served with diced onion, cilantro, and lime; burritos; quesadillas; or as a main plate alongside rice and beans.
