====== Grilled Pork Kebabs with Barbecue Glaze ======

  * 1 1/2 - 2 lb pork loin - cut into 1" chunks
  * 1 tsp kosher salt
  * 3 Tbsp ketchup or combination ketchup and barbecue sauce
  * 1 1/2 Tbsp packed brown sugar
  * 1 tsp chili powder

  - Toss pork and salt together in large bowl and let sit for 20 min. Meanwhile whisk ketchup, sugar, chili powder, cornstarch, liquid smoke, and cayenne together in bowl. Set aside 1 1/2 Tbsp ketchup mixture.
  - Add remaining ketchup mixture to pork and toss to coat. Thread pork onto 4 - 12" metal skewers, leaving 1/4" between pieces. Spray both sides of meat generously with oil spray.
  - Cook on hot grill until well charred, 3-4 min. Flip skewers, brush with reserved ketchup mixture, and continue to grill until second side is well charred and meat registers 140 deg., 3-4 minutes longer.
  - Transfer to serving platter, tent loosely with foil, and let rest for 5 min.
  - Alternative: Cook pieces in hot skillet turning to brown all sides and until 140 deg. Add remaining sauce near end.
