Step up your grilling game with these delicious Pork Kabobs. They are just right - a little savory, sweet, tangy and finger licking good.

We like to serve these with fried rice and grilled vegetables. They are also great with grilled potatoes and a fresh garden salad.

To make clean up quicker when using the grill try these Grillaholics mats (affiliate link). The mats have a nonstick surface that makes it easier to flip food that have a sticky marinade or sauce on it.

Can I Cook These Pork Kabobs Inside?

If you don't have a grill or the weather is bad outside, you can cook these indoors on a stove top grill or in your oven.

If baking in the oven, line a baking sheet with foil and spray with cooking spray (such as Pam) to prevent sticking. Bake at 375° for 25-30 minutes or until meat is tender and cooked all the way through.

Turn halfway through baking time and baste with remaining marinade during the last 10 minutes of baking.

What Is The Best Skewers To Use

If using wooden skewers soaking them in warm water for 15 to 30 minutes before threading to keep them from burning.

If you prefer wooden over metal try buying high-quality bamboo skewers. They are thicker and tend to have a higher heat tolerance.

Metal skewers are great because you can wash them and use them over and over again if you grill a lot.
