Recipe: #3301
December 02, 2011
"We love skewers, this is one we have been making for over twenty years. It has served me well, Souvlaki, a Greek salad and crusty bread a company worthy meal, a platter of skewers make for a delicious great starter, using mini skewers a great appetiser. How can I not love Souvlaki! We like to add chunks of onion for added flavor"

Step by Step Method
Step 1
UPDATE: I have found I love using pork tenderloin instead of pork shoulder, easier to find and cube and extra tender. Soak wooden skewers 30 minutes. Cut meat into small cubes or 1 inch strips
Step 2
In glass bowl, whisk together oil, wine and oregano, minced garlic, salt and pepper. Add in prepared pork cubes or strips
Step 3
Cover, refrigerate. Best overnight or up to 24 hours
Step 4
Thread meat on skewers, cook on greased grill on medium heat turning and basting often with oil mix until done. We often thread in chunks of onion, green pepper and cherry tomatoes - just because!
