Grilled sweet and sour pork skewers
Sweet and sour pork. This is the grilled version though. Some might call it the healthy version because it baths in nary a deep fryer, but I just call it the “wanted to try it grilled version” or even “the extra tasty grilled version”. It has what it needs to be pretty bloody reminiscent of…
