Equipment

  • 13 6 inch bamboo skewers

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lb pork boneless ribs
  • 3 tbsp bbq sauce Whatever you have on hand
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • .91 lb pre-cut pineapple slices from your local supermarket or feel free to cut the pineapple yourself

Instructions
 

  • Soak the Skewers: Soak wooden skewers in water for a few hours to prevent them from burning on the grill.
  • Prep the Pork:Cut pork into chunky 1.5-inch pieces. You want hearty bites for this recipe.
  • Marinate: Place the pork in a container and sprinkle with salt to help draw out some of the fat. Add BBQ sauce and mix until the pork is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours to marinate.
  • Prep the Pineapple: If your pineapple chunks are large, cut them in half to match the size of the pork pieces. Then assemble the skewers, alternating between pork and pineapple.
  • Grill: Start by grilling over high heat to sear and caramelize both sides. Then reduce the heat to low or move the skewers to a higher rack. Let them cook for 15–20 minutes, allowing the pork to tenderize and the fat to render.
  • Serve & Enjoy: Enjoy hot off the grill. These skewers are sweet, smoky, and perfect with grilled veggies or fresh slaw.
