Method
- If starting with raw pork intestines, boil them in water for at least 5 minutes before cleaning. Drain safely, then clean and rinse carefully with minimal splashing. Wash hands and clean and disinfect the sink, surfaces and utensils before preparing other food.
- Pre boil the intestines in water with a little salt and vinegar for 30–40 minutes until tender, then drain and cool.
- Slice the boiled intestines into manageable lengths.
- In a bowl, combine vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, ketchup, brown sugar, salt, and pepper to make a marinade.
- Add the intestines and marinate in the refrigerator 1–2 hours.
- Thread the marinated intestines onto soaked bamboo skewers.
- Grill over medium heat, turning and basting with leftover marinade, until charred in spots and cooked through, then serve with vinegar dip.
