Grilled Pork Shish Kabobs image

A simple, excellent recipe for grilled pork tenderloin kebabs. Learn our tips and tricks for flavorful and tender, crowd pleasing shish kabobs.

Provided by Natasha Kravchuk

Categories     Easy/Medium

Time 4h10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/2 lb pork tenderloin (trimmed and cut into 1 1/2" pieces)
1 Tbsp Italian seasoning
1 1/2 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp black pepper
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 large red onion (cut into 1" pieces)
1 Tbsp fresh parsley to garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl (or ziploc bag), combine chopped pork, 1 Tbsp Italian seasoning, 1 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp black pepper and stir until well combined. Separate onion pieces and add them to the bowl. Add 2 Tbsp olive oil and toss to combine. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours and preferably overnight.
  • Thread the kabobs onto metal skewers*, alternating between meat and onion. For even browning, the meat and onions should be just touching on the skewers and not crowded together. Let your skewers stay at room temperature for 30 minutes before placing on the grill.
  • Preheat your grill to Medium/high heat (400˚F). Add skewers in a single layer and grill for 8-10 minutes total. Meat skewers turn like a triangle so we cook about 3 minutes per side on all 3 sides. Grill until cooked through and meat reaches at least 145˚F internal temperature. Rest skewers 3 minutes before serving.

THE BEST MARINADE FOR KABOBS! (BEEF, PORK AND LAMB)



The Best Marinade for Kabobs! (Beef, Pork and Lamb) image

I have a few favorite marinades that I have used for years this is one of them, this marinade will tenderize and add flavor to any cut of meat to absolute perfection and makes fantastic kabobs! This can also be used for chicken but because of the vinegar amount marinading time will need to be reduced to a maximum of 6 hours or the acid vinegar will start to "cook" the chicken, use only honey no other substitutions!.. you will love this marinade!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality meat: The quality of the meat you use will greatly impact the flavor of your kabobs. Choose meat that is fresh, well-marinated, and has a good amount of fat.
  • Cut the meat into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly. For beef kabobs, cut the meat into 1-inch cubes. For pork kabobs, cut the meat into 1/2-inch cubes.
  • Marinate the meat: Marinating the meat will help tenderize it and infuse it with flavor. You can use a variety of marinades, depending on your taste preferences. Some popular choices include olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, herbs, and spices.
  • Skewer the meat: Once the meat is marinated, skewer it onto metal or wooden skewers. Make sure to leave some space between the pieces of meat so that they cook evenly.
  • Grill or broil the kabobs: You can cook the kabobs on a grill or under a broiler. If you are grilling the kabobs, preheat the grill to medium-high heat. If you are broiling the kabobs, preheat the broiler to high heat.
  • Cook the kabobs until they are cooked through: The cooking time will vary depending on the type of meat you are using and the thickness of the pieces. For beef kabobs, cook for 10-12 minutes per side. For pork kabobs, cook for 8-10 minutes per side.
