  • Filipino pork BBQ for dinner tomorrow.

    I'm back on a diet so weekends are a little lax and I eat some meat. This is one of my favorite things and one of the few Filipino foods I really enjoy. Here's the recipe:

    In a big bowl combine

    1 diced up big yellow onion
    4 or 5 garlic heads crushed. I use the minced garlic you buy in the produce section
    1 cup banana ketchup. You can pick this up at any Asian food store.
    1/4 cup soy sauce
    1/2 cup vinegar
    1/2 to 2/3 cup of brown sugar
    2 cans of Sprite
    2 packets of calamansi juice. You can pick this up at Asian stores also. Frozen section.
    A few squirts of Sriracha sauce. I put a little more in because I like mine spicy.

    Stir and set aside.

    About 2 pounds of pork shoulder. I get this at Costco now. Get the country pork shoulder boneless ribs. Slice in to about 2 inch long by about 1 inch thick pieces. Put in the marinade, cover and refridgerate over night.

    About 1 hour before cooking, place about 15 bamboo skewers in water and soak.

    Drain the marinate into a large sauce pan. Leave the meat out and allow it go get to room tempeture.

    Bring the marinade to a boil stirring constantly. Add a couple of drops of sesame oil. Reduce head after about 10 minutes of rolling boil. Get the marinade down to about half of was started with.

    Skewer the meat. About 4 or 5 pieces per stick. Place on an oiled hot grill. Brush the reduced marinade on the meat. Let each side cook about 4 or 5 minutes. Continue to brush on marinade after each rotation.

    Because of the sugar it is best to not have the grill extremely hot. Nice red coals work very well.

    Thanks for the recipe, it was a big hit with my family & ward members. I passed on the marinde to those interested with the only stipulation that they call it "CJF's Filipino Marinade".

      I was with you until I saw banana ketchup. That stuff is nasty.

        I agree. My wife doesn't even like it. For some reason it does makes for good bbq sauce. You won't catch me ever using it for anything else.
