Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 – 2 lbs boneless pork loin
- 3/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup vinegar
- 1/2 cup Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tsp dry mustard
- 1 tsp sage
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 garlic clove
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Pork:
- Begin by cutting the boneless pork loin into 1-inch cubes, ensuring uniformity for even cooking.
- Place the pork cubes in a shallow pan, ready to be marinated.
-
Make the Marinade:
- In a screw-top jar, combine the soy sauce, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, dry mustard, sage, salt, pepper, and minced garlic clove.
- Secure the lid tightly and shake the jar vigorously until all ingredients are thoroughly blended, creating a rich and flavorful marinade.
-
Marinate the Pork:
- Pour the prepared marinade over the pork cubes, ensuring each piece is coated evenly.
- Cover the pan and refrigerate for several hours, allowing the pork to soak up the delicious flavors of the marinade. Remember to turn the pork occasionally for uniform marination.
-
Prepare the Skewers:
- Once marinated, drain the pork cubes and pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess marinade.
- Thread the pork cubes onto skewers, ensuring they are packed snugly but not too tightly, allowing for even cooking.
-
Heat the Marinade:
- Transfer the remaining marinade to a saucepan and heat it gently over low heat. This will be used later for basting the kebabs during cooking, enhancing their flavor profile.
-
Grill the Kebabs:
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, ensuring it’s clean and well-oiled to prevent sticking.
- Place the pork kebabs on the grill, approximately 5 inches from the coals or heat source.
- Grill the kebabs slowly, turning them frequently to ensure even cooking and to prevent burning.
- Brush the kebabs with the heated marinade during the cooking process, infusing them with additional flavor and moisture.
-
Cooking Time:
- Grill the marinated pork kebabs for about 25 minutes, or until they are cooked through and have achieved a delicious caramelized exterior.
- Ensure the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145Β°F (63Β°C) for optimal doneness.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Once cooked to perfection, carefully remove the pork kebabs from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter.
- Serve the juicy and flavorful Marinated Pork Kebabs hot off the grill, accompanied by your favorite sides and garnishes.
- For an extra touch of culinary creativity, consider serving grilled vegetables alongside the kebabs. Thread mushrooms, green peppers, onion wedges, or even apple slices onto skewers, brush them with the marinade, and grill for 15-20 minutes until tender and caramelized.
