Pork Souvlaki

Souvlaki (literally “skewers”) is the quintessential street food of Greece. Typically ordered by the dozen, they are highly addictive. Bill and Tony Darsinos, of Greko Greek Street Food in Nashville, Tennessee, spent years searching for the perfect domestic cut of pork to suit their tastes, finally settling on the pork collar for its mix of rich flavor, fat, and tenderness. In a pinch, you could substitute boneless pork shoulder (butt) or boneless, country-style ribs. To get the right amount of char, tenderness, and flavor, you need to grill the pork hot and fast over direct heat until just cooked through.

Serves 10 to 12
