Ingredients

Marinade:

  • 4-5 garlic cloves minced
  • ½ cup Dijon mustard
  • ½ cup honey or substitute
  • cup ginger beer
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper

Skewers:

  • 1 pork tenderloin up to 2 pounds
  • 1 yellow bell pepper other colors as preferred
  • 1 red onion
  • Campari or cocktail tomatoes optional

Instructions

  • Cut pork tenderloin into cubes, about 2 inches. Add all marinade ingredients to a ziplock bag and mix together. Add the pork, seal and marinate, refrigerated, for at least one but up to 12 hours.
    4-5 garlic cloves, ½ cup Dijon mustard, ½ cup honey or substitute, ⅓ cup ginger beer, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, 1 pork tenderloin
  • If using bamboo skewers, soak in water for at least 30 minutes before loading. For a one pound tenderloin I typically need 5-6 skewers.
  • Cut the bell pepper and onion into squares of roughly equal size.
    1 yellow bell pepper, 1 red onion
  • Thread the ingredients onto the skewers by alternating peppers, onions, and pork. Finish with a tomato, if desired.
    Campari or cocktail tomatoes
  • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  • Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 5 minutes, then turn. Cook each side of the cubes for at least 3 minutes, then turn again. The skewers need about 15 minutes of cooking time, and the time is best checked by using a meat thermometer.
  • The internal temperature of your pork should read 145°F when cooked through. When it does, remove the skewers from the heat, cover loosely with foil and let rest for 5 minutes while you assemble the rest of the meal. Serve and enjoy!
