My special pork barbecue on sticks are my family and friends' favorite. They said that my special pork barbecue is addictive as on every bite they can savor the sweet savory and spicy all at once. Here’s how I prepare:
Serving: 7 pax
INGREDIENTS
1 kilo of Pork shoulder or pork belly (slice in 1-inch)
3 heads of garlic (liquefy using blender)
1 Teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 kilo brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cup 7-up
1/4 cup calamansi juice
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup oyster sauce
1/2 cup UFC banana catsup
13 to 15 pieces bamboo skewers (boil for 10 minutes before threading the meat onto the bamboo skewers)
Use a blender to mix the soy sauce, liquefied garlic, calamansi juice, salt, black pepper, sugar, oyster sauce, 7-up. Pour marinade to the pork, add the UFC banana catsup and set aside a portion for the grilling glaze. Marinade for 20-30 minutes. Keep in a non-reactive container and cover with cling wrap and refrigerate the pork overnight. Alternatively, you can just boil the marinated pork for 10 minutes if you are in a hurry or you don't have the time to refrigerate the marinated pork overnight . Thread 5-6 pieces of pork onto the bamboo skewers and glaze the pork before you barbecue grill to a medium high heat. Grilling time will take about 30 minutes on each side while rotating the skewers (if marinated overnight but if you boil already for 10 minutes, it should take 8-10 minutes grilling time only) . Moisten the pork barbecue with the glaze (add 1 teaspoon of cooking oil) every few minutes so that it gets moist and shiny.
…...and that’s how I make my special barbecue pork, hope I will get feedback from those who will try this!
