If we talk about food that goes best with summer, I guess everyone has their own attachment to it. Some people are obsessed with shaved ice with honeyed red beans, and some like the umami flavor of seafood; however, for men, more people can't forget the grilled skewers until they are sizzling and oily. As time goes by, I will always miss that feeling involuntarily. This is true, especially for many male friends who love to drink beer, the best match for the whole summer is barbecue. A handful of grilled meat skewers and a few glasses of cold beer or draft beer are the most beautiful fireworks in the world.
I remember when I first started working, the most delicious meal after get off work was barbecue paired with draft beer. A stupid young man with little money in his pocket, the open-air barbecue stall is affordable, and a set of long ovens can supply more than ten small tables. People sat down at a small boxy table with short legs, ordered dozens of skewers of barbecue, and had a large glass of cool draft beer in front of each person. Every big sip was a wonderful, soul-stirring experience. Later, with some reports about kebabs, especially food safety issues, people gradually stopped going out to eat barbecue. Especially in these years, we never go out to eat barbecue. It’s not clean and expensive. It’s really enjoyable to make big skewers of barbecue at home and pair it with draft beer.
Ingredients: 1000g pork belly
Ingredients: 10g cumin, 5g cumin, 5g chili powder (optional), 5g cooked white sesame seeds
Seasoning: appropriate amount of vegetable oil, 10 grams of salt
1. Barbecue seasoning is the soul of barbecue. You can also make it at home. The method is very simple: 10 grams of cumin grains, 5 grams of fennel, add Put it in a pan and bake it for about 2 minutes. After it cools, put it in a stone mortar and grind it into coarse particles. Be careful not to grind it too finely, as you may lose the roughness and boldness of the barbecue. Then add 5 grams of chili powder (optional), 5 grams of cooked white sesame seeds, and 5 grams of salt, mix evenly, and a versatile barbecue sprinkle is completed.
2. Choose the kind of fine pork belly with little fat, so that the big skewers of barbecue will taste great. Cut 1,000 grams of pork belly into 2 cm thick strips first, and then cut it into 2 cm diagonal pieces. This will make it more enjoyable to eat, less likely to burn, and more tender.
3. Clean the long stainless steel skewers and set aside. Put the cut large pieces of meat into a vegetable basin, sprinkle in 5 grams of salt, and stir evenly. 4-5 pieces of pork belly are skewered on each skewer. The large skewers of barbecue look tempting.
4. Preheat the oven and place a baking pan at the bottom of the oven to prevent dripping baking oil from splashing on the lower baking tube. Brush the surface of each large skewer with vegetable oil, place it on the grill grid, and place it on the upper shelf of the oven.
5. Adjust the oven temperature: adjust the upper and lower heat to the maximum temperature of 230 degrees and start baking. After timing for 12 minutes, take out the large skewers of barbecue, brush the surface with a layer of vegetable oil, and evenly sprinkle with a layer of homemade barbecue seasoning.
6. Put the grill grid back into the oven again, continue baking for 3 minutes and then take it out. Seeing the hot oil sizzling on the surface of the grilled meat skewers is particularly tempting. A few large skewers of barbecue, paired with a few glasses of cold beer, whether it's a weekend family dinner or a reward after a day's work, it's the most desirable happiness of the entire summer.
1. The ingredients for this large skewer of barbecue are the normal amount for a family of three. In special circumstances, please increase or decrease the ingredients according to the total number of people.
2. It is recommended to use fine pork belly, grilled and sizzling with oil, not to mention how delicious it is. If you use lean meat, the grilled large skewers may taste dull, which is far less delicious than those grilled with pork belly.
