Steps:
- Slice the uncooked pork thinly, about 1/8". It helps to slightly freeze it beforehand.
- Mince garlic and shallots. Mix in a bowl with sugar, fish sauce, thick soy sauce, pepper, and oil until sugar dissolves.
- Marinate the meat for 1 hour, or overnight for better results.
- Bake the pork at 375 F for 10-15 minutes or until about 80% cooked. Finish cooking by broiling in the oven until a nice golden brown color develops, flipping the pieces midway. Don't take your eyes off the broiler!
- Assemble your bowl with veggies, noodles, and garnish. Many like to mix the whole bowl up and pour the fish sauce on top, but I like to make individual bites and sauce it slowly.

VIETNAMESE GRILLED PORK AND RICE VERMICELLI NOODLE BOWL
You usually think about pho when going to a Vietnamese restaurant, but it's time to graduate to bun! Bun is a type of noodles, made of rice like pho but thinner and springier. They are cooked, chilled and then used as a base for cold noodle bowls. My favorite protein to top these bowls with is this delicious sweet, smoky lemongrass pork. I love cooking this on a hot griddle to get a great sear.

Steps:
- For the dipping sauce: Combine all the sauce ingredients and stir to dissolve the sugar completely. Set aside.
- For the pork: Combine all of the marinade ingredients in a blender; puree about 20 seconds until smooth. Place the pork in a medium bowl, pour the marinade over the meat and massage the pork well. Marinate for at least 1 hour if time allows. Heat a grill pan, medium skillet or griddle to high and add the oil. When you see white wisps of smoke, saute the pork for about 5 minutes until cooked through.
- For the noodles: Soak the rice sticks in warm water for 20 minutes. Drain, then boil the soaked rice sticks in 3 quarts (2.8 liters) of water in a 4-quart (3.8-liter) pot for about 12 minutes until al dente. Rinse them well under cold water in a fine mesh strainer and reserve.
- Assembly: Divide the noodles into 4 separate bowls. Place the pork on top of the noodles. Sprinkle the pork with radish, carrot, roasted peanuts and scallions. Pour Nuoc Cham Sauce over the noodles and mix them well like a salad.
Tips:
- Choose the right cut of pork: Look for a cut that is fatty and flavorful, such as pork shoulder or pork belly. This will help to keep the pork moist and juicy while it is grilling.
- Marinate the pork: The marinade will help to tenderize the pork and infuse it with flavor. Be sure to marinate the pork for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
- Cook the pork over medium-high heat: This will help to sear the outside of the pork and keep it juicy on the inside. Cook the pork for about 8-10 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through.
- Make the fish sauce dressing: The fish sauce dressing is a key component of this dish. It is made with fish sauce, lime juice, sugar, and garlic. Be sure to taste the dressing and adjust the ingredients to your liking.
- Assemble the bowls: To assemble the bowls, start with a bed of rice vermicelli noodles. Then, top with the grilled pork, pickled vegetables, herbs, and a drizzle of fish sauce dressing.
Conclusion:
Vietnamese Grilled Pork and Rice Vermicelli Noodle Bowls are a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a summer cookout. The grilled pork is tender and juicy, the rice vermicelli noodles are light and refreshing, and the pickled vegetables and herbs add a bright and flavorful touch. This dish is sure to be a hit with your friends and family.
