Tonight for dinner I modified a recipe from Pig King of the Southern Table by James Villas.  The recipe was for BBQ pork kabobs.  The recipe in the book calls for making a peach BBQ sauce while I chose to use Sweet Baby Rays Sweet Vidalia Onion BBQ sauce.  The dinner was delicious, and the only problem I only made 4 Kabobs for each of us.

Recipe:
Pork Tenderloin
Sweet Baby Rays Sweet Vidalia Onion BBQ Sauce
White Peaches from a local farm
Red Onion
Wooden skewers

1.  Soak wooden skewers in a water and white balsamic vinegar.
2.  Cut pork tenderloin into 1 inch cubes.  Do the same with the red onion and peaches
3.  Marinate Pork in Sweet Baby Rays BBQ sauce.
4.  Skewer pork onion and peaches.  Brush with BBQ sauce.
5.  Grill on High heat rotating and brushing skewers with BBQ sauce.

Eat and Enjoy
