The meat is so tender and juicy. The flavor of the pork alone was delicious. The peanut sauce was very good but the recipe makes way more than is needed. I froze the leftover sauce for a future batch of pork skewers. I love grilling these smaller skewers. Fun food. Will be making this for a dinner party soon.
