To make the kebab soft and juicy. Shish kebab marinade with vinegar and onions for pork shish kebab

How to marinate juicy pork kebab? What to add to the marinade to give the dish a special and delicate taste? We will try to answer all these questions in our article.

The marinade is a mixture of salt, onion, spices and acid (fruit juice, acetic acid, wine or mayonnaise). Each of these products is included in the recipe to give the meat special tenderness and softness. Half the success depends on the right choice of meat. It must be young, without a lot of fat. You can identify fresh pork by its uniform, pink tint. As for the part of the carcass that is best suited for barbecue, we can say with confidence that it is the neck. You can also give preference to the loin, brisket and loin.

If it is not possible to use a fresh product, use frozen or chilled meat. The main thing is to prepare it correctly. First, defrost it by placing it on the bottom shelf of your refrigerator. Such defrosting will preserve all the taste.

Choosing the right dishes.

Choose containers made of ceramic, glass or enamel for pickling. Avoid using plastic and aluminum containers. During marinating, they will begin to release harmful substances and the taste of the dish will deteriorate significantly.

The marinating sauce may contain various products. As a rule, housewives use acetic acid, basil, allspice, savory, dried chili, paprika, coriander, chopped onion, etc.

5. Pork can be easily marinated in acetic acid. In any case, you will get soft and tender pulp without hard fibers. This is the simplest version of the marinade, so in some cases you can use it to reduce cooking time. For example, you can prepare the following marinade: mix sugar, vinegar and water, let it brew at room temperature for three hours.

Greetings, our dear readers. Spring is just around the corner, the first warm days are here, it’s time to fry pork kebabs. As they say: open barbecue season. Shish kebab is an amazing dish with very tasty meat. The fire and smoke add a piquant taste to the meat. Yes, this cannot be cooked in the oven.

Today we will talk about classics, almost. Traditionally, kebab is made from pork. The meat is not expensive, but juicy and soft. You can always please your family and friends with this dish.

There are several simple tricks that everyone should know about. Then the kebab will turn out amazing. Today we'll talk a little about this.

Also in the last article we already talked about juicy recipes, you can read it, there is one awesome recipe that makes even the driest meat juicy and tasty:

Well, now let’s get started and look at the recipe that we have been using for a very long time and often to prepare delicious pork kebabs.

Subtleties of preparation and cooking.

Meat for barbecue.

When it comes to pork, it is best to use the neck or neck. We usually take collards. You should always choose fresh, chilled meat. If necessary, you can remove films and excess pieces of fat. But don’t remove a lot of fat, it adds juiciness to the meat.

How to cut meat for shish kebab.

It is best to cut the pork into equal square pieces 3-5 cm wide. If you cut the meat too finely, it will be dry. If the meat is in too large pieces, it will remain raw in the middle.

Preparing coals for barbecue.

Kebabs cooked on the firewood of fruit trees are especially aromatic. But you can cook excellent shish kebab on regular coals. Moreover, if you don’t buy coals, you can make a fire using birch wood. They produce more heat and do not smoke much.

If you have a barbecue, then everything is extremely simple. If there is no barbecue, then you need to show ingenuity and a little work to organize a place for preparing barbecue. You can start a fire right on the ground.

If you want to cook several servings of shish kebab, then you need to prepare a place that will keep the heat longer from the heat. You can build something similar to a barbecue from bricks or scrap materials. You can dig a small rectangular hole and make a fire in it. It is important to take into account that in order for the wood to burn out, oxygen must reach the bottom of the pit. To do this, we either make access for oxygen from the side, or stack the firewood in a house (tent).

How to grill shish kebab.

  1. Do not turn the meat too often, this can cause it to become dry. Only at first do we turn the meat quickly. You will get a small crust, and then fry as usual.
  2. Periodically sprinkle the meat with the remaining marinade, wine, beer diluted with water... this way the meat will not be overcooked and will retain its juiciness.
  3. Do not allow the flame to appear, otherwise the meat will burn.
  4. If the heat is not enough, turn the coals around or fan them slightly (do not allow the flame to burn). This procedure is best done after removing the skewers from the heat.
  5. The readiness of meat can be checked in several ways: cut the largest piece of meat, the juice should be clear; pierce the meat with a knife; if the meat is soft, then it is ready (again, pay attention to the color of the juice).
  6. The temperature from the heat can be checked by holding your hand over the coals in the place where you plan to fry the meat.
A few words about the barbecue marinade.

Today we marinate shish kebab in onions. Onions have the ability to perfectly soften meat. In addition to the technology described, you can use several more of its variations:

  1. Marinate the meat in onion juice. This method of pickling gives excellent results, but it is not always possible to obtain onion juice.
  2. Grind the onion using a meat grinder, blender or grater and marinate the meat in this gruel. The meat is marinated perfectly. But onions have the ability to caramelize, and if you leave pieces of meat in the onion “breading”, it will burn very quickly. A solution was suggested by a friend - wash the meat in dry wine before cooking.
  3. If you need a very quick result, then you can use the recipe described below, but in addition to onions and spices, add highly carbonated mineral water to the meat.

Classic: pork kebab.

This recipe is quite common, but we do it better than anyone, so we’ll describe it first. Quite simple, it takes time to marinate, it’s better to start in the evening in order to cook kebabs the next day.

Ingredients:

  • Pork neck - 1.5 kg;
  • Onions - 500 g.

For the marinade:

  • Onions - 1 kg;
  • Salt - 2 tsp;
  • Ground black pepper - 0.5 tsp.

For pork kebab, it is best to choose the neck or neck. We cut the meat into equal pieces with a side width of 3-5 cm. If desired, you can make small cuts or punctures along the fibers, but this is not a mandatory procedure.


Peel the onion and cut into large rings or half rings.

Part of the onion can be left for stringing on skewers.

Place the meat, onions and spices in a suitable container. If desired, you can add any spices and seasonings to your taste.

Mix the meat and onions well. You need to knead the meat and onions until the onions become soft and acquire a dark shade. The juicier the onion, the better.


The mixing process may take from 10 to 20 minutes.

We tamp the meat and onions into a suitable container and leave to marinate, ideally overnight.

If you need to speed up the marinating process, you can pour highly carbonated mineral water over the meat, then the meat will be ready in 1-2 hours.


Step 6.

The meat can be threaded along the grain onto skewers in its pure form, or you can alternate it with onions, tomatoes, bell peppers, eggplants, zucchini, potatoes, or other vegetables of your choice.

We fry the meat with onions, and we use fresh onions not from the marinade.

The onions from the marinade have already given up all their juice to the meat, and they don’t look very marketable, so we cut the fresh onions into rings.

Alternately string pieces of meat and onion rings onto skewers.

Thread larger pieces of meat onto the center of the skewer, smaller pieces along the edges.


It is necessary to prepare all the skewers before sending them to the fire.

We check the temperature over the fire with our hands and place the skewers over the coals.

Important! The fire must burn well so that there are no flames, otherwise the kebab will burn.

As the meat cooks, you need to turn the skewers.

This should not be done too often, as otherwise the meat will turn out dry. During the cooking process, the meat should be periodically sprinkled with the remaining marinade diluted with water, wine or beer.


We monitor the temperature above the coals. If necessary, you can lower or raise the skewers/grill. If it is not possible to adjust the height of the skewers, then, depending on the need, you can either lightly sprinkle the coals with water, or mix them and inflate them.

The readiness of kebabs can be checked in several ways:

— You can cut the largest piece and check the color of the juice, it should be transparent.

— You can pierce the meat with a knife, if it is soft and the juice is clear, then the kebab is ready.

Serve the kebab hot, after removing it from the skewers. It is best to serve meat with bread, sauces and a large amount of herbs, bon appetit!

Pork kebabs according to a very quick recipe (video).

Here is a good video on how to make shish kebab quickly, and it will turn out very tasty. Plus there are several secrets on how to make really tasty kebab. Let's look:

Vinegar marinade for pork shish kebab with mustard.

A very aromatic and spicy charcoal dish. For this kebab, choose pork neck for marinating. The marinade includes fresh vegetables, a little mustard and vinegar. The taste will be amazing.


We will need:

  • Pork neck - 1.5 kg;
  • Onions - 2 pcs;
  • Garlic - 5 cloves;
  • Tomatoes - 2 pcs;
  • Red bell pepper - 2 pcs;
  • Vinegar 9% - 4 tbsp. spoons;
  • Mustard - 2 tbsp. spoons;
  • Vegetable oil - 50 ml;
  • Salt - to taste;
  • Seasoning - to taste.

Prepare the meat, rinse and dry. Cut into portions, removing excess fat and veins. Transfer to a deep bowl.

Do not cut off all the fat, it will only add juiciness.

Peel the onion and garlic. Cut the onion into half rings, chop the garlic finely, and place in a bowl.

Cut the tomatoes into quarters, remove the core and seeds from the sweet pepper, and cut into rings. Add to the pork, mix everything together with your hands.


Then add the spices, I use natural barbecue mix, grill seasoning. Mix well.

Pour in vegetable oil and vinegar. Add the mustard, then mix thoroughly until each piece is coated with the marinade.


Cover the bowl with meat and put it in the refrigerator to marinate for 4-6 hours, or better yet, leave it overnight.

Before frying, thread the pieces onto skewers and fry over coals until cooked. Have a delicious picnic, bon appetit!

Pork kebabs in beer marinade.

Pork kebabs, or rather pork brisket, are for lovers of fatty kebabs with a lot of fried lard. Fatty meat does not require a special softening marinade, so beer acts as a flavoring agent in this recipe. Lard marinated in beer turns out very aromatic, with the taste of hops.


Everything is prepared quite quickly, it will take about 3 hours.

Ingredients:

  • Pork belly - 600 g;
  • Onions - 2 pcs;
  • Light beer - 0.5 cups;
  • Salt to taste;
  • Pepper to taste;
  • Spices to taste.

Cut the meat into pieces, the onion into thick circles. Combine everything in a container, add salt and pepper to taste, stir, rubbing the spices into the meat.

Pour in cold beer and leave for 1 hour.

Thread the meat and onions onto skewers.


Fry pork belly kebab over moderately hot coals until crisp.

Fatty kebab should always be served hot; when cold it loses its taste, and not everyone likes frozen lard. Therefore, if such a pork belly kebab has cooled down, it can be easily reheated in the microwave. It is best to serve pork kebab with vegetables, citrus slices and herbs.

Awesome marinade for pork shish kebab with matsoni (kefire) (video).

We made pork kebabs according to this recipe as shown in the video. For those who cannot get matsoni, like us, we tried it for the first time with kefir. It’s also very tasty, so we recommend everyone try it.

Marinade with nutmeg and lemon juice.

You will get unusually tender, spicy pork kebabs if you first marinate the meat in nutmeg and lemon juice. An excellent snack in nature will bring a lot of pleasant impressions.


We will need:

  • Pork - 1 kg;
  • Red onion - 8 pcs;
  • Nutmeg - 4 tbsp. spoons;
  • Juice of one lemon;
  • Salt - to taste;
  • Ground black pepper - to taste;
  • Seasoning for pork - 1 tbsp. spoon.

Cut the onion into rings and place some in a deep bowl. Place the sliced ​​pork on top. Add spices: salt, pepper, nutmeg, seasoning. Mix everything.

Then, in a separate bowl, mix the second part of the red onion with the juice of one lemon, while crushing the onion until juice forms. Transfer the marinade to a bowl and mix thoroughly. Cover the dish and marinate in a cool place for 6 hours or more.


Fry the meat on skewers on the grill until a nice crust forms. Have a good mood, bon appetit!

Pork kebabs: the best recipes with juicy and tender meat. updated: April 25, 2018 by: Subbotin Pavel

There are simply incredibly many different recipes for outdoor meat that cannot be fit into one article. Therefore, today I want to talk a little more about this and describe it in detail.

I myself am so captivated by this topic that I simply cannot stop, summer is just around the corner. Weekend trips out of town are ahead. What's a picnic without a good barbecue? Yes, none!

My husband has already run out of prescriptions, but I am persistent and am not going to back down. I scoured the Internet and found many more interesting ways to marinate kebab. In particular, from pork, since it is one of the most popular types of meat that Russians choose for outings.

Since I already wrote about this, I’ll just briefly remind you how to choose the right meat:

  • Choose only chilled food, never from the freezer.
  • Check freshness with your finger. Just poke it and if it recovers quickly, then everything is fine.
  • Color - the darker the meat, the older it is. Take the pinkish color.
  • The most suitable parts for barbecue are the neck, tenderloin, carbonate and ham.

A very interesting recipe, prepared in warm sunflower oil, which absorbs all the aroma of onions and spices. The meat infused in it is very soft and juicy.

Ingredients:

  • Pork tenderloin – 1.5 kg
  • Soy sauce - 20 g
  • Onions - 2 pcs.
  • Tomatoes - 5-6 pcs.
  • Vegetable oil - 15-20 gr.
  • Garlic - 2 cloves
  • Ground red pepper - 0.5 teaspoon
  • Paprika - 0.5 teaspoon
  • Salt - to taste
  • Bay leaf - 1 pc.

1. Remove all the peel from the tomato. To do this, make small cuts on top with a cross and place in hot boiling water for just a couple of seconds, then drain the boiling water and the skin can be easily removed. Then grate them into a bowl on a coarse grater and add salt and mix.

2. Cut the onion into half rings and place in a preheated frying pan, heat it up a little and squeeze the garlic into it, stir. Let it heat in the pan for another minute and turn it off. There is no need to fry the onion, just let it become slightly translucent.

3. Directly into the frying pan with the onions, while the oil is still warm, pour the spices, broken bay leaf and tomato pulp. Stir and add soy sauce. We do all this so that the warm oil gives an amazing aroma, saturated with onions and other spices. This effect will not work in cold oil.

4. Cut the tenderloin into portions that you will put on a skewer. Pour the marinade into it and mix well with your hands. Leave at room temperature for 2 hours, then you can put it in the refrigerator overnight. Although after 2 hours it can be fried on the grill.

The meat takes approximately 18-20 minutes to cook. Turn it over every 30 seconds to ensure it cooks properly on all sides. And your meat will be simply incredibly tasty, soft and juicy.

Recipe for pork kebab with vinegar and onions in mineral water

Here's another quick recipe for marinating shish kebab in carbonated mineral water. Mineral water does wonders for meat. It speeds up the process and the meat is quickly soaked in the prepared brine.

If you don't like regular vinegar, substitute apple or grape vinegar, but then add a tablespoon or two more.

Ingredients:

  • Pork neck - 1.5 kg
  • Large onions - 3 pcs.
  • Ground pepper - 1 teaspoon

2. Taste the marinade; it should be spicy, a little salty, a little sweet, a little sour. If there is something missing, add a little more. The main thing is that it is sweet, sour and salty. The kebab will be ready for frying in two to three hours.

3. It takes about 15 minutes to cook on the grill, and at the same time requires constant attention. It must be turned over all the time so that the meat is fried evenly. For this he will thank you with his indescribable aroma and taste.

A quick way to prepare juicy carbonated kebab

I just couldn't pass up this recipe. Here we will do without any marinade at all. But, despite all this, the meat will be so juicy that you will definitely want to make such a kebab more than once for yourself and your friends or guests at the dacha. The taste is simply amazing.

Ingredients:

  • Butter - 150 gr
  • Dill - bunch
  • Garlic - 3-4 cloves
  • Salt and pepper - to taste

1. Remove the butter from the refrigerator in advance to soften it a little. Mash the butter in a bowl with a fork, add the dill chopped with a knife. Season with salt and pepper. Squeeze the garlic into it or grate it on a fine grater. Mix everything well.

2. Cut the bacon into small pieces.

3. Cut the carbonade into steaks. The steaks should be the same thickness. Then you need to hit them with a hammer. Spread the prepared butter on each piece. Place the chopped bacon pieces there.

4. Then simply roll it into a tube. And do this with each piece. Place all the rolls in the freezer for -20-30 minutes to freeze and make it easier to cut. After the time has elapsed, cut the rolls into small rolls. And put it on the grill.

5. Place the skewers so that the sides with the oil look not down, but to the side. The coals should not be very hot, let them sit for a while so that the heat subsides. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning constantly.

This kebab turns out just super juicy. And note, you don’t need to keep it in any brine, you don’t have to wait until the meat is soaked. I highly recommend trying it at least once. You definitely won't regret it.

Super quick marinade using kiwi

Kiwi contains an enzyme that very quickly begins to corrode the meat, so if you choose this recipe, you must start cooking with a hot grill. The coals will just reach the desired state. If you overcook the meat in kiwi, it will lose its appearance, as if shabby.

Watch the detailed video recipe. Everything is described there in detail. The meat is really very soft and juicy with a slight sourness.

3. Peel the pomegranate. Divide into several parts and using a mortar, mash the pomegranate so that it produces juice. Place the remaining pulp with bones into the meat and pour the squeezed juice there. Stir and leave to marinate for 40 minutes.

4. As usual, the time for frying, depending on the part of the pork, will be from 15 to 30 minutes. And don’t forget to constantly turn the skewer over the heat. When you cook it on the grill, place pine cones on the coals for smoking. The aroma will be amazing. But this is more like a recommendation for the described recipe, and not an obligation.
