Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    Success: This amount of pork fits nicely in most grill baskets, but you could also thread the pieces on skewers to cook them.
  • Tip 2
    Success: If you opt for bamboo skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes before using to prevent burning. Turn the skewers once during cooking.
