The ingredients needed to make Vietnamese Grilled Pork (Thit Nuong):
  1. Make ready 2 pounds pork shoulder, thinly sliced or cut into 1/2-inch thick steaks to be cut into smaller pieces after cooking
  2. Prepare 3 Tablespoons fish sauce
  3. Get 3 Tablespoons brown sugar
  4. Take 1.5 Tablespoons oil
  5. Take 1 teaspoon lime zest or 1 Tablespoon very finely minced lemongrass (the latter is preferable, but not widely available)
  6. Prepare 1 large shallot, thinly sliced (about 1/3 cup)
  7. Prepare 1 large green onion, chopped
  8. Get 2 cloves garlic, minced
Steps to make Vietnamese Grilled Pork (Thit Nuong):
  1. TO MARINATE: In a large mixing bowl, mix all ingredients together thoroughly and marinate for at least 30 minutes and up to 2 days, before cooking.
  2. GRILL COOKING METHOD: If you're cutting the meat into small pieces, you'll need a grill basket to keep them from falling through the slats. Spread the pork in a single layer and cook over medium high heat (and at least 5 inches above the coals or gas element) until the meat is cooked through and the fatty bits are charred. 5 to 7 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the cut and grill heat.
  3. SAUTE/STIR FRY COOKING METHOD: Cook in three equal batches in a medium high preheated and well oiled (about 2 teaspoons oil per batch) saute pan or fry pan or wok. If you want to ramp up the char factor with this method, you can turn the heat up a little bit higher and use about a teaspoon more oil for each batch. I won't lie - it's messy. But sometimes, you gotta put up with a little mess to make something really delicious.
  4. BROILER COOKING METHOD: Preheat broiler. Spread in a single layer on a broiler pan and place about 4 inches under the broiler for 10 to 12 minutes or until the meat is cooked through and some of the fatty bits are charred.
  5. Enjoy! :)
