Gloriously Delicious Super Bowl Party Snacks Totally Worth The Effort

13. Grilled Pork Kebabs with Hoisin and Five-Spice

In a gone, but not forgotten retired rock star of the food blog world start to the list, we begin with a snack from The Bitten Word. A loving couple from DC, Zach & Clay taught us all to strive to use those cooking magazines sitting in piles in our homes. While their blog ceased posting new items at the end of 2016, the recipes they tried live on in the site archives. Grilled Pork Kebabs with Hoisin and Five-Spice from Cook’s Illustrated were declared tasty enough to be worth the effort.

These cubes of pork threaded onto skewers and cooked on a grill will give your Super Bowl party a touch of Asian flavor. While it does require hoisin sauce and five-spice powder, those are items that are used in numerous Asian recipes and you shouldn’t have trouble finding other things to make with them if you try new things.

The sauce and recipe are simple enough, the work will be in trimming and cutting the meat plus skewering and grilling. However, Bitten Word notes that the fast cooking time adds to the flavor winning situation. If you cut the pieces a little flatter and reduce the cooking time accordingly to avoid making pork jerky, you could make or buy dinner rolls to create little Asian pork sandwiches for your guests.
