Tender Pork Kabobs Recipe – marinated with wine or beer and grilled to perfection. Perfect for a summer barbecue.
Hey Guys! Happy Monday! Can you believe Memorial Day Weekend is just a few days away!
This means (hopefully) nice weather, fun and good food.
Can’t wait to fire up the grill and make some pork kabobs!
People around me seem to be obsessed with kabobs/kebabs. So am I.
When it comes to grilling, these are one of my favorite things to prepare.
I’ll be honest, not everyone eats the veggies on the skewer, but I do.
I sometimes don’t even bother to add them and just put meat on it, but for the purpose of the pictures, I did today.
I grew up eating pork pretty often.
I know it isn’t some people’s favorite meat, but I used to love it. Now, I don’t cook it very often.
Maybe like once every 2 months.
But I like to marinate it for kabobs.
This is my go-to recipe for a pork meat marinade and I love how tender and flavorful these turn every time.
The interesting thing is that I’ve tried making the marinade with either white wine (I know pork is red meat and goes well with red wine, but not in this recipe) or beer.
The flavor is slightly different, but both produce tender pieces of meat.
Feel free to try either way. The other ingredients in the recipe are the same, you just switch the wine with beer.

They look so good! I am often around people who are crazy about kabobs too – so I’ll have to remember this recipe.
I am so excited for summer to get the BBQ out and start making kebabs (as we call them). I usually always use chicken, but I am going to have to BBQ pork more this year.
I can’t believe it’s almost Memorial Day weekend! The unofficial start of summer, which I’m looking forward to! These kabobs look gorgeous, Mira. Such a perfect dish for the summer!
I just made pork skewers last week too. I love the sound of your marinade, must give this a try.
Mira, I LOVE kabob recipes for the summer and LOVE that you made one using pork! love these!
Thanks Alice!
I can’t believe Memorial Day is this weekend either, but I have already been firing up the grill every weekend, so I’m ready! I’m with you in that I love pork, but I don’t make it as often as I’d like. Totally changing that by adding these kebabs to my grilling rotation, Mira! LOVE the beer or white wine in the marinade! And I will be eating the veggies on these fabulous kebabs! Pinned! Cheers, dear! <3
The pork looks so tender and I love those charred peppers! These look just perfect for summer grilling!
I’m always on the look out for new grilling recipes and this is coming at just the right time! It’s so easy to get in a grilling rut – but these kebabs will change all that! Thanks, Mira!
I love kabobs. They look so beautifully charred and tender. Lovely share, Mira.
I love grilling and I love grilling kabobs! I love veggies on mine too but the meat is always the star! Your pork looks like a winner!
