You really haven’t eaten till you’ve had Pho (phở) and a side plate of grilled pork. I just puts it over the top.
This is a super easy recipe but you need to marinade the pork the day before. It’s also cheap! Its pork!
The peeps who have the Egg or a wood style BBQ have a huge advantage over the lowly propane method amature backyard chefs. Like I have an opinion to criticize here! I live on a boat and have to pan fry everything. ?
I find cooking this in a cage or wood skewers vs. flipping one at a time is much easier.
Oh, I should mention I’m into a bottle of Chardonnay and got some Disturbed going on in the background. Guaranteed to have an ultimate BBQ experience today!

Master Brad...ya, that flying dog held me captive forever, in the end the eggs never hatched. Grrrr
I had totally forgotten about this, my Portuguese dogs are still in therapy.
Try is with a couple of sprigs of tarragon while you're making the sauce, not too much just enough to…
Looks good
Good catch...I forgot to add the good stuff. Butter. :)
