Crush or grate the garlic. Heat a little oil in a wok or frying pan on a high heat. Cook meat, stirring to break up the chunks until the meat is no longer pink.

Add the garlic and cook for another minute or so. Add the soy sauce and simmer for 5 minutes or until the sauce is well incorporated with the meat.

When the adobo is cooked. Add the vinegar. Stir taste and season with more vinegar or some salt if needed. Generally it's delicious as is.
