Grilled Pork on a Stick
This is a Filipino recipe for the familiar grilled meat on a stick for anyone who has visited the Philippines. I look forward to making this. No servings or times given, this is a make what you want, think large crowd like family visiting, or when having friends visit, would be a good meal in itself while sitting around and chatting.
Ingredients
- pork butt, OR pork shoulder
- 1 1/2 cups soy sauce
- 2 cups brown sugar, packed
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoon banana ketchup, OR, sweet chili sauce
- 10 cloves garlic, smashed
- 2 teaspoons black pepper
- 1/2 cup water
- wooden skewers, as needed
Instructions
- Take the pork and cut into thin strips.
- Mix the marinade ingredients together and add the pork. Refrigerate over night, or if pushed for time, marinate for at least 2 hours prior to grilling.
- Soak the skewers in water to prevent burning. Light your grill, charcoal would be preferred, when the coals are ready, no more flames, skewer the pork strips and grill until done, turning as needed. Serve as an appetizer or main meal with sides of your choice.
Notes
For pricing I will use pork shoulder at 103 Baht/kilo, A kilo would make a lot of sticks of meat! For an estimate of say 8 people (an average Thai family get together), this is about 38 cents per person. Great value.
