Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together hot broth, sugar, soy sauce and rice wine or sherry.

• Add pork and turn to coat (or put pork in a heavy-duty, plastic, food-grade bag and add marinade).
• Cover and refrigerate until the next day, turning several times.
• Lift meat from marinade and drain briefly, barbecue on a rack by indirect/medium-hot heat in a gas grill, or over a drip pan, indirect heat on a charcoal grill.
• Grill until a meat thermometer inserted in thickest part registers 170° (2-2 1/2 hours).
• To serve, let meat stand for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prepare Peanut Sauce.
• Cut meat across the grain into thin slanting slices.

INDONESIAN PORK SATéS WITH SPICY PEANUT SAUCE

Steps:

• Pork Satés
• To make the satés, mix the garlic, ginger, oil, and ketjap manis in a medium bowl and add the pork cubes. Stir to coat with marinade; set aside. Meanwhile, make the sauce.
• To make satés, thread the pork (4-5 cubes per skewer) onto the soaked wooden skewers. Grill or broil for 2-3 minutes on each side. Serve with the warm peanut sauce and a garnish of sliced radishes or cilantro sprigs.
• Spicy Peanut Sauce
• Place the peanut butter, garlic, chile paste, and ketjap manis in a small pot and warm gently over low heat for about 4 minutes. Stir in the Chicken Stock or water slowly, adding a little at a time; the mixture will thicken after each addition as it warms. This sauce can be made ahead of time and kept warm or rewarmed. You will need to add more liquid when ready to serve, as the peanut butter will thicken while standing. The sauce should have a thick, creamy consistency but be loose enough to stir easily. The seasonings can be adjusted to your personal taste; we like it a little spicy.

INDONESIAN PORK

Steps:

• What I do is take a 2-3 pound piece of boneless pork loin and cut it into"chops" and then cut the chops in half and then pound each half until thin.
• Combine the marinade ingredients and pour over pork.
• Thoroughly coat all pieces of meat.
• (I put everything in a Ziploc plastic bag).
• Marinate for several hours.
• When ready to cook, thread pork onto skewers (I kind of"sew" the meat back and forth onto the skewers) and cook on heated grill over moderate heat for 12-14 minutes, turning once.
• It doesn't take long for the pork to cook because it has been pounded thin, so be sure not to overcook it or it will be dry.
