APL Asian Pork Meatball Skewers

dmourati

It's the weekend so it's my turn to cook dinner. I decided to make APL's Asian Pork Meatball Skewers.





I used my pizza steel at about 400F with some butter and toasted sesame oil. The secret is to press down on the meatballs to form them into a sort of cube. This gets more crust on the outside of the meatball versus a sphere.



After one flip.



First batch done with the sear. Second batch on.



After the sear, put the meatballs straight onto the grid. Hit 'em with the glaze. Pro tip: clean and oil the grid to prevent sticking.



Nearly finished plate. Hit with a bit of diced scallions, sesame seeds, some lime juice and serve with rice and lettuce wraps.

I ate four skewers, probably about a pound of pork. They were amazing.



Here's the recipe. Enjoy and let me know if you make them.

Nice work!  What's the diameter on your pizza steel?

The pizza steel is 16". I bought it for pizza but it comes in handy for all sorts of cooks including smashburgers and this one.
