Kamado Joe BBQ Recipe

  • Add all the marinade ingredients into a large bowl and mix thoroughly. Add a little water to loosen the mixture.
  • Add the chopped pork shoulder and marinade for at least an hour.
  • Add the pork, onion, and pepper to the kebab sticks. Heat the kamado to 300℃ with the lid on. Cook for about 6 -8 minutes, turning halfway through.

A kamado grill typically needs to reach a temperature of around 400-450°F (200-250°C) to cook kebabs thoroughly. This high heat ensures that the kebabs cook quickly, retaining their juiciness while developing a delicious charred exterior.

What to serve with Chinese spice pork kebabs

  • Serve the Chinese Spice Pork Kebabs with steamed jasmine rice and a side of stir-fried vegetables for a complete and satisfying meal or some tasty homemade egg fried rice.
  • Pair the kebabs with a fresh cucumber salad dressed with a light vinaigrette to balance out the richness of the pork.
  • Create a DIY kebab bar for a fun and interactive dining experience. Offer a variety of dipping sauces, such as sweet chilli, hoisin, and soy-ginger, so guests can customise their kebab experience.
  • Accompany the kebabs with traditional Chinese condiments like pickled radish, shredded cabbage, and chili oil for an authentic touch.
  • For a casual gathering, serve the pork kebabs in lettuce cups with a sprinkle of chopped peanuts and a drizzle of hoisin sauce for a refreshing and handheld option.
