  • I'd be hard pressed to pick a favorite on a great tapas spread, but if I had to choose, it might be those beautiful charred meat skewers that are imbued with more spices and flavors called pinchos morronos.
  • And Keith's here to tell us more about it.
  • Now, sometimes it's made with pork, sometimes chicken.
  • What are we doing today?
  • So we're going to use pork today.
  • All right.
  • Pork goes really well with the spices in that spice mixture on the outside.
  • But pork kebabs, as you know, can turn out really, really dry when you grill them.
  • They're really lean, so there's not a lot of protection there.
  • So I have a couple tricks that's going to make this super moist, super tender, super flavorful.
  • Fabulous.
  • So the first thing is, is using the right cut of pork.
  • We're going to use country style boneless pork ribs.
  • And you can see here that they have a nice mix of white meat, which is the loin, and also some dark meat, you can see right here, which is up from the shoulder.
  • And it has a lot of nice intramuscular fat, so it's going to be flavorful, and it's also going to keep it nice and moist when we grill it.
  • But one more thing we're going to do before we grill these is that I'm going to make a brine.
  • I have one and a half quarts of water here, cold water.
  • I'm going to add three tablespoons of table salt.
  • That salt is dissolved, and I can just place our pork in here, like so.
  • The salt is going to do its job.
  • We're going to let this sit at room temperature for half an hour.
  • While that's sitting, we're going to work on our spice paste.
  • So I have a quarter cup of vegetable oil here.
  • And the predominant flavors in this marinade are garlic and lemon.
  • So I have six cloves of garlic, minced, and two tablespoons of lemon juice.
  • Also add some spices for complexity.
  • I have two teaspoons of smoked paprika.
  • I also have a teaspoon of ground coriander.
  • All right.
  • And a half teaspoon of ground cumin.
  • I also have a quarter teaspoon of cayenne and a half teaspoon of black pepper and one teaspoon of table salt.
  • Now, the brine is going to season the pork, but we also want to season our spice paste.
  • Gotcha.
  • So I have two other additions.
  • We're going to do some fresh grated ginger in here.
  • So I've already had these peeled.
  • We'll capture all those juices coming out of there, too.
  • One grated tablespoon.
  • Perfect.
  • That's gorgeous.
  • All right.
  • So one other addition.
  • I have some fresh oregano here.
  • Slide that off the stem.
  • Now this oregano is going to give that marinade and spice paste kind of an earthy flavor.
  • Okay, so I'm going to take a teaspoon of this.
  • That goes in the spice paste.
  • And I'm going to take another teaspoon.
  • And we're going to use that to garnish the cooked pork later on.
  • So I'll have you hold on to that.
  • Hide it.
  • Don't let anybody take it.
  • All right.
  • All right.
  • It's going in the vault.
  • Just stir this all together.
  • So we're just going to let the pork finish for thirty minutes and we'll come back and cut it and skewer it.
  • All right.
  • It's been thirty minutes and the pork is out of the brine.
  • The brine has done its job and it's seasoned that pork.
  • Very fast.
  • So I'm just going to pat it dry to make sure that we don't have any brine on the surface here.
  • Now it's time to cut the meat for our kebabs.
  • You can see that we have white meat and dark meat.
  • The white meat and the dark meat need to be handled a little differently.
  • They're going to cook at different temperatures.
  • So when I cut them into pieces, we want to separate them.
  • So I'm going to cut these into one inch cubes.
  • Those one inch cubes are going to allow the pork to brown on the grill, but not overcook.
  • This will be our dark bowl.
  • And now if you have a piece that has dark and light, I would put that with the dark, like so.
  • This is our white meat bowl.
  • Okay, if there's any fat like this, we want to get rid of that as well.
  • Okay, our last piece, and I would say that falls in the dark meat camp in here.
  • White meat.
  • Look at that.
  • Perfect.
  • Now that we've got our pork cut, we can put the spice paste on.
  • Now, inevitably, I think you'll probably find that you have less dark meat than you have white meat, so we're gonna kind of add the spice paste proportionally.
  • So I'm gonna add, let's say, about one third of the spice paste here, and the remaining two thirds over here.
  • So there's no better way to do this than with your hands.
  • So I'm just going to get in here, mix the spice paste in, and then start to skewer.
  • So, I have metal skewers here.
  • I'm just going to thread these on.
  • Now, I want to keep some space in between here.
  • You want to make sure you have a little bit of a gap in there so the heat can get between the pieces of pork.
  • Makes sense.
  • You get more char that way, too.
  • Right.
  • I'm trying to get an even amount, so it looks like I have seven pieces on there.
  • It's coated pretty well.
  • Looks good.
  • So, I'm going to put this on the left side of our tray.
  • This is your job to remember, left side is dark, right side is white.
  • Okay.
  • Okay.
  • And so I'm just going to finish up skewering these and then we can go outside and grill them.
  • Don't forget to put that on the right side.
  • Right side.
  • Right side?
  • Right.

  • So our pork is marinated and skewered and now it's time to cook.
  • So I've preheated our gas grill on high for fifteen minutes.
  • Make sure it's nice and hot.
  • Now I'm just going to take a brush and I'm going to clean off our grill grates.
  • Now that we've gotten rid of any stuff that's stuck to the grill, I'm just going to take a towel and some vegetable oil.
  • I'll just dip it in here and start wiping that.
  • Now, I'm going to shut off the outer two portions here.
  • I want it to be hot underneath the pork, but I don't want the whole grill to be hot and overcook the pork.
  • So we really want to concentrate the heat right underneath the pork.
  • Now, you remember that I separated the dark and the white meat?
  • Well, there was a reason for that.
  • So the dark meat contains more fat and more collagen.
  • So we're going to need to cook that to a little bit higher of a temperature than the white meat.
  • So I'm going to take the dark meat skewers, put that on the grill,
  • first and give it a head start before the white meat.
  • Okay.
  • I'm going to cover it.
  • I'm going to cook for six minutes, give it a little bit of head start, and then we'll come back and we'll add our white meat.
  • So it's been six minutes and that dark meat has gotten a head start.
  • And now I'm going to flip this and I'm going to add our white meat and continue to cook.
  • Okay.
  • You can see we're getting some color on there.
  • Roll that over.
  • Okay.
  • Now our white meat.
  • We're going to go for another four minutes and then we'll come back and we'll flip all of those skewers.
  • It's been four minutes and we can check on our skewers, see how they're doing.
  • These look great.
  • So check to see what we're going on here.
  • Oh, that's perfect.
  • Just a little bit of browning.
  • Just a little bit of browning.
  • Yep.
  • These are going to go a little bit longer so we can continue to brown them.
  • OK.
  • So I'm gonna also rotate and flip the dark ones to make sure those are getting nice evenly brown.
  • And what we're looking for is the white meat will register a hundred and forty degrees.
  • The dark meat will be a hundred and fifty five degrees.
  • So a little bit higher than the white meat.
  • And that's gonna take four to eight minutes.
  • And I'm just gonna go in there every four minutes and make sure I flip and get even browning on those.
  • So let's check on our pork to see if it's done.
  • This is our white meat.
  • So I'm looking for a hundred and forty degrees.
  • One forty one.
  • I'll take that.
  • I'll take it.
  • Oh, that smells so good.
  • Smells great.
  • Looks wonderful.
  • So I'm just going to take some foil and tent this so it doesn't cool off on our way in.
  • I think we're good to go.
  • Let's go eat.
  • Let's go eat.
  • It's been five minutes.
  • The pork has rested.
  • It's time to eat.
  • So I'm just going to take this off the skewer, and I'm going to mix this up.
  • So we want to make sure the guests get some dark meat and some white meat.
  • Because we were basically only separating it so that it would cook well.
  • Right.
  • Okay, and I'm just going to put this onto a platter.
  • Now, you remember that one teaspoon of oregano that I saved?
  • Yes.
  • Just a nice sprinkle over that.
  • A little freshness at the end.
  • Yeah, the heat on that pork is kind of blooming the aroma of that oregano.
  • It's fantastic.
  • It's gorgeous.
  • Okay, it's time to eat.
  • No more waiting.
  • So make sure that you have a nice mix here.
  • Some dark meat.
  • Squeeze a lemon.
  • Try the dark meat first.
  • Mmm!
  • Garlic is the first thing that you get here.
  • But it's not overpowering.
  • No, it's not.
  • But the real challenge, really, is the white meat.
  • Which is still juicy.
  • Mm hmm.
  • Mmm!
  • Very tender, not overcooked at all.
  • The smoked paprika really comes out, accentuates the grill flavor.
  • And that brine has really done its job.
  • Meat's moist, juicy, fantastic.
  • Not dried out at all.
  • not dried out at all.
  • I think this is the best skewers we've ever done.
  • It's great.
  • Doesn't get any better than this.
  • Thanks, Keith.
  • You're welcome.
