Day 4 of #DDGrillWeek and these Pork Pastor Skewers are a Summer showstopper ☀️🌺

For the Pastor Sauce:
2 cups diced pineapple
1 tbsp. distilled white vinegar
2 tsp. ancho chile powder
2 tsp. chili powder
1 tsp. ground cumin
½ tsp. ground cinnamon
1 tbsp fresh oregano leaves
4 garlic cloves
¼ cup freshly squeezed lime juice
¼ cup freshly squeezed orange juice
½ cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 tsp. kosher salt
½ tsp. freshly ground black pepper

For the Pork:
2 pounds pork tenderloin, excess fat removed and cut into 1-inch cubes
1 tsp. kosher salt
½ tsp. freshly ground black pepper

For the Skewers:
Ten (6-inch) skewers (if wooden, pre-soak for 15 minutes)
1 cup medium diced pineapple

For the Bowls:
1 cup prepared cilantro-lime rice
Pickled red onions
Guacamole
Fresh cilantro leaves
1 lime, cut into wedges

Marinate the Pork:
In a high-speed blender, combine all of the sauce ingredients and blend until smooth. Reserve 1 cup of the sauce and store in the fridge until ready to use.

To a large bowl, add the cubed pork, salt, and pepper with the remaining sauce. Cover and marinade in the fridge for at least 2 hrs.

Make the Skewers:
Next, thread the pork and pineapple onto the skewers. I like to do 3 to 4 cubes of pork, then a pineapple cube, then repeat. Using two skewers together makes it easier to flip and less likely to spin or slither off.

Grill the Skewers:
Add Mesquite pellets to the grill and preheat to 375℉
Place the pork skewers directly on the preheated grill grates. Line up the skewers side by side without overlapping. Cook the pork skewers, brushing with ½ cup of the reserved sauce (saving the rest for serving) every so often, for 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the skewers and grill another 3 to 4 minutes on the other side, painting with sauce. When done, the middle of the pieces should be soft, juicy, and cooked through.

To Serve:
Serve over cilantro-lime rice and drizzle with a bit of the remaining pastor sauce. Add a scoop of guacamole alongside the skewers. Top with pickled red onions, a little cilantro and a wedge of lime!
