Ingredients

  • 2 pounds pork shoulder or pork belly slice in 1-inch cuts, ready to skewer
  • 1 tsp garlic finely minced
  • ½ cup soy sauce
  • ¼ cup calamansi juice (the Filipino lime) frozen calamansi concentrate, or use fresh (from Asian markets) or use fresh lemons
  • ½ cup banana catsup from Asian markets (or use tomato catsup)
  • 8 ounces ginger ale or 1 can (or use 7-Up or Sprite)
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper powder
  • 14 bamboo skewers pre-soak for 20 minutes before placing skewered meat

Instructions

  • Mix the marinade ingredients together in a bowl: minced garlic, soy sauce, calamansi juice (or use lemon), banana catsup (or use tomato catsup), half of the ginger ale, salt, black pepper. Leave a ½ cup of the marinade plus the sugar, aside for the grilling glaze. Pour the rest of the marinade over the pork.
  • Keep in a non-reactive container.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate the pork overnight.
  • The next day, pre-soak the bamboo skewers in water for about 20 minutes.
  • Then skewer the pork pieces into each bamboo stick, allowing approximately 6 to 7 pieces on each one.
  • Preheat the outdoor barbecue grill to a medium-high heat.
  • Get ready with the grilling glaze set aside from the day before, add the sugar and remaining ginger ale.
  • Grill the barbecued pork, about 12 minutes on each side while rotating the skewers.
  • Total grilling time should take about 30 minutes.
  • Baste the pork barbecue every few minutes so that it gets moist and shiny.
  • When cooked, serve hot on long platters and garnish with tomatoes, cucumbers, and green pickled mangoes or some “atsara”, green papaya pickle relish.
