White BBQ Pork Kebabs
These pork kebabs are coated in my special white bbq sauce recipe for a dinner that’s ready in about 30 minutes! Big thanks to Smithfield for sponsoring this recipe!
Let’s talk for a minute about the grill, shall we? Like, specifically, who does the grilling in your house?
It’s usually portrayed as a man’s job, but then all the cooking happening inside is the woman’s job. I just think that’s all so weird. I am perfectly happy to grill myself and do so quite a bit when the husband isn’t home.
Of course, when he is home I totally pull the “grilling is a boy’s job” card, because hi, have we met? I’m super lazy.
Curious who does most of the grilling in your house? Let me know if I’m the only grill out there brave enough to man the grill.
Anyway, I really hope that SOMEONE in your house fires the grill up and soon, because these pork kebabs are so dang good and they’re super easy. I took a big ol’ Smithfield Marinated Fresh Pork Loin Filet in Applewood Smoked Bacon. Don’t be scared of such a big hunk of meat on busy weeknights – you can totally still get dinner on the table quickly with this guy by cutting it all up into bite sized pieces and popping it on some skewers with a few veggies.
The pork has a great smoky flavor from the bacon that it’s rolled around in. The flavor is pretty divine on it’s own, but then I went and coated it in my favorite white BBQ sauce recipe and these little kebabs just disappeared! My kids went nuts for them. Of course, my daughter totally gave all the onion chunks to me, but I sure didn’t complain. Grilled onions are my jam.
You could also add some cherry tomatoes or chunks of zucchini to your kebabs to bulk them up even more.
This white barbecue sauce is my jam, but honey mustard dressing would be pretty fabulous too!
I like to serve the kebabs with extra white barbecue sauce for dipping. Serve these alongside my hashbrown casserole with some chocolate cobbler for dessert. So yummy!

This looks so good Karly! Can’t wait to try it!
I am happy to man the grill when necessary, but my husband kind of likes for it to be his “thing.” He fancies himself a master and me a novice. I figure whatever he has to tell himself is fine as long as it means I get to kick my feet up while dinner is getting made every once in a while. I love to cook, but everyone needs a break! I keep meaning to try white BBQ sauce. It seems like something I’d like but have never tried it. Now it’s on the short list.
Do you think I could use the broiler for this?
I’ve never tried it, so I really don’t know.
These kebabs look really great! I love your idea of adding cherry tomatoes and chunks of zucchini to them too!
I always “man” the grill
I’m the griller , chef and dish washer in my house. I live alone. But back in the day he did the grilling and I cooked and washed! Then my girls turned into teenagers and they washed up. I love my gas grill because I can keep all the mess out of the kitchen for the most part and water the plants at the same time. These kebabs look awesome. They look good for dinner tonight!
Wishes for tasty dishes,

I love the gas grill too! So much simpler than charcoal!
My son is the grillmaster in our house and he is absolutely the best at it. I get the food ready, marinate or cut it up and make kabobs, and he cooks it, low and slow … I actually do not like grilling – I can do it but I figure if he enjoys it, good for me!
We just cut up a whole loin of pork and had teriyaki kabobs. Tonight is souvlaki! Your white bbq sauce sounds good though, and I’ll keep it to try.
I need to put my son to work now! 🙂
These look delicious! Grilling anything is so good this time of year. Need to try these!
We shared your reciped on our website blog. Love it!
I’ve never heard of white bbq sauce but I’m definite going to have to try! Sounds delicious.
Thanks for this fabulous recipe. Did all the prep (added mushrooms) work last night and cooked them in an air fryer today at work for lunch (we do Air Fry Friday, cook everything including dessert in air fryers). The kebabs and the white BBQ sauce were amazing!!! Everyone loved them and took the recipe and the left overs!
Ooh, I had no idea you could cook stuff like this in an air fryer! Interesting!
Glad you enjoyed these!
