Time 5h20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 medium garlic cloves (20g), minced
2 tablespoons (15g) minced cilantro stems, plus fresh cilantro leaves for serving
2 tablespoons (30g) finely chopped palm sugar (see note)
1 tablespoon (15ml) fish sauce
1 tablespoon (15ml) soy sauce
1 tablespoon (15ml) oyster sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons (6g) ground white pepper
1/2 teaspoon (2g) MSG powder (optional)
2 pounds (900g) pork butt, in one piece
1 (5 1/2-ounce; 160ml) can unsweetened coconut cream
1 recipe Thai Dried Chili-Vinegar Dipping Sauce , for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine garlic, cilantro stems, palm sugar, fish sauce, soy sauce, oyster sauce, white pepper, and MSG (if using), and stir until palm sugar is dissolved. Set aside.
  • Freeze pork for 15 minutes and up to 30 minutes (partially freezing the pork makes it easier to slice). Using a sharp chef's knife or slicing knife, slice pork against the grain into 2-inch-long, 1-inch-wide, and 1/8-inch-thick strips. The easiest and most efficient way to do this is to start by portioning the pork butt into 2-inch-wide by 1-inch-thick pieces, and then slicing those pieces crosswise into 1/8-inch-thick strips.
  • Combine pork and marinade in a large bowl, and toss until every piece of meat is evenly coated in marinade. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, and up to 36 hours.
  • Thread one piece of pork onto a skewer, piercing it through twice to secure it, then pushing meat tightly together like an accordion. Continue threading pork onto skewer, making sure meat is tightly bunched together, leaving no parts of the skewer exposed except for a 2-inch handle at the bottom, and the pointy tip at the top. Repeat skewering process with remaining pork.
  • Set up grill for skewers, making sure to adjust distance between bricks to the length of your skewers. Light one chimney full of charcoal. When all the charcoal is lit and covered with gray ash, pour out and spread the coals evenly in the channel between the bricks.

Tips:

  • Select the right cut of pork: Look for a pork shoulder or pork loin, which are known for their flavor and tenderness when marinated and grilled.
  • Tenderize the pork: Before marinating, consider using a meat mallet or a fork to tenderize the pork. This will help the marinade penetrate deeper and result in a more flavorful and juicy kebab.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is the key to infusing the pork with delicious flavors. Experiment with different combinations of soy sauce, honey, ginger, garlic, and spices to create a marinade that suits your taste preferences.
  • Marinate for at least 30 minutes: Allow the pork to marinate for at least 30 minutes, but preferably overnight. This will give the marinade enough time to work its magic and tenderize the pork.
  • Grill the kebabs over medium heat: When grilling the kebabs, maintain a medium heat to prevent the pork from drying out. Cook the kebabs until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for medium-well.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: Asian pork kebabs pair well with a variety of sides, such as jasmine rice, grilled vegetables, or a refreshing cucumber salad.

Conclusion:

Incorporating Asian flavors into your kebab marinade is a delightful way to elevate your grilling experience. The combination of savory, sweet, and tangy ingredients in this marinade creates a flavorful and tender pork kebab that will impress your taste buds. By following these tips and experimenting with different marinade variations, you can create a signature Asian pork kebab recipe that will become a staple in your grilling repertoire.
