Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound pork tenderloin, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 whole fresh pineapple, cut into 1-inch chunks Look for one that is firm with a sweet aroma.
  • 1 whole red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 whole green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1/2 cup BBQ sauce For alternatives, you can use teriyaki sauce or a homemade marinade.
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce Make sure it's gluten-free if needed.
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the grill to medium heat (around 375°F).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the pork tenderloin cubes with pineapple, red onion, and green bell pepper.
  3. In a separate small bowl, whisk together BBQ sauce, olive oil, soy sauce, garlic powder, and black pepper until well combined.
  4. Pour the BBQ sauce mixture over the pork and vegetables, tossing to coat evenly.
  5. Thread the pork and vegetables onto skewers, alternating ingredients.
Cooking
  1. Place the skewers on the preheated grill and cook for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally every 5-7 minutes.
  2. Brush with any remaining BBQ sauce during the last few minutes of grilling if desired.
  3. Remove from the grill and serve immediately.

Notes

Serve hot with sides like fluffy rice, coleslaw, or a light summer salad. For better flavor, let your ingredients sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before grilling.
