1 clove garlic, minced<\/p>\n
1 small red chili, thinly sliced<\/p>\n
Directions<\/p>\n
Skewers<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Cut the pork shoulder (if using) into 2 inch chunks, you want it to be approximately 20-30% fat, then pop in the freezer 30 minutes so they\u2019re very cold, but not rock-hard<\/p>\n
Then add pork chunks (or ground pork) to a food processor with the garlic, fish sauce, sugar, black pepper, baking powder and ice cubes \u2013process until it turns into a smooth, sticky paste, scrape the sides down as needed.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Stack the tortillas,and cut them into about a 6 inch square.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Wet your hands lightly,and put approximately 1\/8thof the mixture on a tortilla, and press it out evenly to the edges. Tope with another tortilla and repeat until all done, ending with pork on the top tortilla<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Cut the stack into 4 equal rectangles, then turn. them on their side, and push together<\/p>\n
You now want to push 4 long skewers through the stacks paced out evenly then cut through the stacks to make4 long individual pork skewers*<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Heat grill to medium, place a cooking rack on your grill, lightly coat with cooking spray and put on the skewers.<\/p>\n
You\u2019re looking for beautiful, nicely charred color so turn often \u2013 this will probably take 10-12 minutes.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Warm the honey, and baste skewers during the last 3-ish minutes of cooking<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Remove from grill, and serve with the sauce. *Or just say fxxk it and form into sausages, patties or meatballs then cook as is and serve with the sauce \u2013 cuz they\u2019ll still be amazing.<\/p>\n
Nuoc Cham Dipping Sauce: Stir the sugar into the warm water until dissolved. Then add the fish sauce, lime juice, garlic and chili – mix well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
