Moo Ping (BBQ Pork Skewers)

These bbq pork skewers are just about fool proof to make. They are a great appetizer to make large quantities of at your summer grill outs. Purée all of the marinade ingredients together. Marinate the pork for 4 hours; overnight is even better. Put 2 pieces of meat on a skewer. Either broil or grill the skewers. They will only take 2 minutes a side. And that’s it. Serve with a side of sticky rice.
