Ingredients:
1/2 cup light sodium soy sauce
1/2 cup lemon juice or lime juice
1/2 cup ketchup
3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1–2 teaspoons salt
1 can lime soda or Sprite
5 pounds meat of your choice (chicken or pork)
Instructions:
Prepare Marinade: In a large bowl, mix soy sauce, lemon/lime juice, ketchup, brown sugar, garlic powder, pepper, salt, and soda. Stir until the sugar dissolves.
Marinate Meat: Cut meat into bite-sized chunks. Add to marinade, cover, and refrigerate for at least 3 hours (preferably 24 hours for maximum flavor).
Soak Skewers: Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.
Preheat Grill: Set your grill to medium heat and lightly oil the grates.
Skewer the Meat: Thread marinated meat pieces onto the skewers with small gaps between each for even cooking.
Grill: Place skewers on the grill. Cook each side for 4–5 minutes, basting occasionally with the warmed leftover marinade until meat is fully cooked and slightly charred.
Serve: Let skewers rest a few minutes. Serve with rice, coleslaw, or pickles. Garnish with herbs if desired.
