pork skewer

Meat on stick

A pork skewer is pieces of pork threaded onto a stick and grilled or roasted.

The format appears across cuisines—Greek souvlaki, Filipino inihaw, Southeast Asian satay.

Street vendors and backyard grills alike produce versions with varying marinades and seasonings: We grabbed pork skewers from the night market.
