Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Pork shoulder (boneless, cut into 1-inch cubes)
- 500 grams Beef chuck (boneless, cut into 1-inch cubes)
- 120 ml Soy sauce
- 60 ml Lemon juice
- 50 grams Brown sugar
- 4 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 2 teaspoons Paprika
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 12 pieces Barbecue skewers (wooden or metal)
- 1 teaspoon Chili flakes (optional for spice)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, lemon juice, brown sugar, minced garlic, ground black pepper, paprika, Worcestershire sauce, olive oil, and honey. Stir well until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is evenly blended.
Place the pork and beef cubes into the mixing bowl, ensuring all pieces are coated in the marinade. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight for more intense flavor).
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.
Remove the marinated pork and beef from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
Thread the pork and beef cubes onto the skewers, alternating between pork, beef, and leaving a small gap between each piece to ensure even cooking.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 8-10 minutes per side, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking. Brush the meat with any leftover marinade during cooking for added flavor.
Check that the internal temperature of the pork and beef reaches 145°F (63°C). Remove the skewers from the grill once cooked.
Allow the barbecue skewers to rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve hot with your favorite sauce, rice, or grilled vegetables on the side.
