SLAYER'S SWEET, TANGY, AND SPICY KABOBS

Slayer's Sweet, Tangy, and Spicy Kabobs image

I acquired both my nickname and the idea for this recipe while working at an awful franchised restaurant in my college years. These are great for Summertime cookouts at tailgate partys or just for get-togethers. The sauce is fairly versatile and can be used for an array of different meats and applications (I originally used the sauce for chicken wings). For people such as myself who have acid reflux I have indicated some ingredients that can be left out in order to help curb the heartburn.

SWEET AND SOUR PORK KABOBS

Sweet and Sour Pork Kabobs image

Making these zesty pork kabobs is as much fun as eating them. And as a 4-H leader with a quartet of 4-H'ers of my own at home, I can count on plenty of help preparing them. My husband enjoys grilling our kabobs outdoors. On rainy days, he broils them up juicy and tender in the oven. Either way, I always make sure to make enough for seconds.

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

2 lbs boneless pork chops, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 cup fat-free Italian salad dressing
1 tablespoon honey

1 large green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 large onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
24 (6 inch) wooden skewers (soak in water for 30 minutes before using or in Garlic Herb: Infused Skewers (#4))

Thread pork, peppers and onion on skewers. Discard marinade. Place kabobs on greased broiler pan and broil 5 inches from heat, or grill over medium-hot coals, for about 5 minutes per side.

Tips:

Choose the right cut of pork: For tender and juicy kabobs, use a boneless, skinless pork loin or tenderloin. These cuts are lean and have a mild flavor that will absorb the marinade well.
Make a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what will give your kabobs their delicious flavor. Be sure to use a combination of acidic ingredients (such as lemon juice or vinegar), flavorful herbs and spices, and some oil. You can also add a touch of sweetness with honey or brown sugar.
Let the pork marinate for at least 30 minutes: The longer the pork marinates, the more flavorful it will be. If you can, let it marinate for up to 24 hours.
Thread the pork onto skewers: When you're ready to cook the kabobs, thread the pork onto skewers. Be sure to leave a little space between each piece of pork so that it cooks evenly.
Cook the kabobs over medium heat: Cook the kabobs over medium heat so that the pork cooks through without burning. This will take about 10-12 minutes per side.
Serve the kabobs with your favorite dipping sauce: Serve the kabobs with your favorite dipping sauce, such as teriyaki sauce, sweet and sour sauce, or barbecue sauce.
