Sweet and Sour Pork Skewers on the Grill
Transform your favorite pork takeout dish into an easy 30-minute grilled meal. These sweet and sour pork skewers are bursting with flavor from tender pork, pepper, onion, and pineapple.
Equipment
- 4 Long wooden or metal skewers
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds (680 g) boneless center cut pork chops cut into 1-inch cubes
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 red pepper cut into 1-inch pieces
- ¼ large red onion cut into 1-inch pieces
- 2 cups cubed (1-inch) ripe pineapple
- ⅓ cup sweet and sour sauce plus more for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the grill for medium heat (375°F). Clean and oil the grill grate.
- Season the pork generously with salt and pepper.
- Thread the pork, pepper, onion, and pineapple onto the skewers, alternating between ingredients.
- Brush the skewers with about half of the sauce. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Cook the skewers, turning every 3 to 4 minutes, and brushing once more with the remaining sauce during cooking, until the vegetables have softened and the pork has reached an internal temperature of 145°F, 12 to 13 minutes.
- Serve with extra sweet and sour sauce, for dipping, if desired.
Notes
- Skewers--If you are using wooden skewers, soak them for an hour before threading and grilling the chicken. Metal skewers don't require any preparation.
- Don't overcook the pork--Use an instant read thermometer to check the internal temperature and remove the kabobs from the grill when it reaches 145°F.
- Storage--Remove any leftovers from the skewers and store in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- Dietary--This recipe is suitable for dairy-free diets and gluten-free diets, if made using gluten-free sweet and sour sauce.
