Authentic Pork Souvlaki


I believe these pork skewers are as close as you'll get to the real greek style pork souvlaki. my family just loves them. It will work just as good with chicken. If you do not have the time to marinate overnight, you can let them sit in the refrigerator for about 2 to 3 hours and it will be just as good.

Steps


Soak 8 wooden skewers in water for at least 1 hour.
In a bowl , toss together pork cubes , lemon juice , red wine vinegar , oregano , thyme , garlic , olive oil , salt and pepper.
Cover and refrigerate for 3 hours or overnight.
Place 5 pieces of meat on each skewer.
Lay on a hot grill and grill slowly continuing to brush on marinade , until meat is done.
Serve immediately in a pita , topped with shredded salad.
For the shredded salad , toss the green leaf lettuce , onion , tomatoes , olive oil , red wine vinegar , oregano , and salt and freshly ground black pepper , to taste in a large bowl , taste and adjust seasonings.
