Begin by cutting the meat into bite-size pieces.
1 lbs country-style ribs, 3 lbs pork loin, boneless
Once all the meat is cut, add all the seasonings, including the lemon juice and the olive oil, and mix to incorporate.
2 tablespoon adobo, 2 tablespoon sazón, 1 tablespoon paprika, 2 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 tablespoon olive oil, to taste salt, to taste pepper
Let the meat marinate for at least 30 minutes up to 24 hours before skewering.
Soak the wooden skewers for at least 30 minutes before use
After 30 minutes of soaking, begin skewering the meat.
Start the grill and brush a thin layer of fat on the grill grates.
Once the grill is hot, place the pinchos on the grill.
Cook until meat is firm. Baste the pinchos with BBQ sauce as you cook them to create a caramelized crust.
Serve pinchos with a slice of baguette.
