Pork Barbeque

Pork barbecue is a very popular street food in the Philippines. However, virtually everyone has their own version of the recipe. The most popular involves marinating the meat in soy sauce and 7-UP. Yeah, my kids were shocked to see me pouring precious 7-UP on some raw meat.

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb pork belly, sliced thinly
  • 1 lb pork shoulder
  • 1 cup 7-up
  • 1/2 cup soysauce
  • 4 tbsp brown sugar
  • 4 tbsp coconut vinegar
  • 10 cloves of garlic, grated
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • bamboo skewers

Directions:

  • In a stainless steel bowl, mix 7-up, soysauce, brown sugar, coconut vinegar, garlic and pepper. This is your marinade.
  • Slice the pork belly and the pork shoulder into long thin pieces (like bacon).
  • Cut the strips about 3 inches long.
  • Marinate the meat overnight.
  • Soak the skewers in water for an hour.
  • Thread marinated pork into each bamboo skewer. Do it alternately, pork belly then pork shoulder and just do this pattern until you finished all the meat.
  • Prepare your grill and place your barbecue. You can baste the meat with the marinade to make it more flavorful.
  • Enjoy with your favorite beer!
