Hi friends! Summer is here and I’m looking for reasons to grill anything and everything…mostly so I don’t have to turn my oven on! These Easy Greek-Style Pork Souvlaki Skewers are my latest favourite thing to throw on the grill and I can’t wait to share them with you today!
Where we live in Eastern Europe air conditioning isn’t really common in most homes, so we’ve learned to cope without it (which is a big change from how we used to live in Canada!). Thankfully, living in the mountains means we get natural air conditioning at night but during the day is a different story!
That’s one reason (besides the flavour of course!) that we love outdoor grilling so much – it keeps the house cool on those hot summer evenings!

Servings: 8 servings
Calories: 76kcal
Ingredients
- 4 4-oz pork neck steaks, cut into chunks or use small 16 oz pork shoulder or pork butt roast, cut into chunks
- 1 cup white wine
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic finely minced
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon seasoning salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Soak about 8 wooden skewers in some water, or set aside metal skewers to use for this recipe (this will prevent the skewers from burning).
- Cut the pork steaks or pork roast into square chunks about 1 and a half inches to 2 inches in length.
- Whisk together the wine, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, paprika, basil, parsley, seasoning salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Push the chunks of pork onto the soaked skewers, about 4-6 pieces per skewer depending on the size.
- Pour the marinade into a shallow container or baking dish and place the pork skewers into the marinade, turning several times to coat.
- Cover with a lid or plastic wrap, place in the fridge and let marinate from 1 to 6 hours.
- Heat your barbecue or indoor grill to medium-high heat and brush with olive oil (if necessary). You can also use a large frying pan or griddle.
- Grill the skewers for about 3-6 minutes per side until the pork is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 65 degrees Celsius (150 Fahrenheit).
- Let rest for 3-5 minutes before serving.

It’s not Greek if it doesn’t have oregano. Sorry
