Ingredients

KABOBS:

  • 4 pounds pork tenderloin

MARINADE:

  • ¾ cup soy sauce
  • ½ cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 ½ Tablespoon dijon mustard
  • 4 large cloves garlic minced
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

MARINATE PORK:

  • In a small bowl, whisk together all of the ingredients for the marinade.

  • Pour marinade over pork, cover, and place in the refrigerator to chill for at least 1 hour or up to 4 hours.

PREP VEGETABLES:

ASSEMBLE KABOBS:

Notes

  • If using wooden skewers, soak in water for at least 30 minutes before using. This will prevent them from burning on the grill.
