The Magic Behind the Barbecue

Barbecuing reminds me of childhood memories either of going to the beach or going to birthday parties.

We got inspired by Chef RV's Easy Barbecue recipe to help bring us back to those memories.

Ingredients

• Pork Meat (tender part): 1000 grams
• Soy Sauce: ½ cup (118 grams)
• Pineapple Juice: ¼ cup (59 grams)
• Rock Salt: 1 teaspoon
• Ground Black Pepper: ½ teaspoon
• Pounded Garlic: 2 tablespoons
• Brown Sugar: ½ cup (110 grams)

Peanut BBQ Sauce

• Soy Sauce: ¼ cup (59 grams)
• Banana Catsup: ¼ cup (59 grams)
• Peanut Butter: ¼ cup (64 grams)
• Brown Sugar: ¼ cup (55 grams)
• Water: ¼ cup (59 grams)

The Marinating Magic

Marinating the pork overnight is the key to unlocking the flavors. Pineapple juice acts as a natural tenderizer, while the combination of soy sauce, rock salt, black pepper, garlic, and brown sugar creates a rich and flavorful marinade.

Tips and Tricks

• Include garlic skin in the marinade for added aroma.
• Soak the barbecue sticks in water to prevent burning during grilling.
• Marinate for at least 6 hours or overnight for the best results.

Skewing and Grilling: The Heart of Barbecue

Skewing the meat properly ensures that it stays moist and meaty. Compressing the meat on the skewer makes it more succulent. Grilling on medium flame for 4-5 minutes per side gives the perfect texture.

Sauce Preparation

The sauce is a blend of peanut butter, water, brown sugar, banana ketchup, and soy sauce. Boil the ingredients together, and the peanut butter will naturally thicken the sauce.

Serving Suggestions

Serve the barbecue with rice and a side of peanut barbecue sauce. This dish pairs well with a fresh salad or grilled vegetables.

Ingredient Substitutes

• Substitute pineapple juice with lemon juice for a tangy flavor.
• Use honey instead of brown sugar for a natural sweetness.
