My Favourite BBQ Meat

1.5-2kg Pork Collar Butt (see your butcher)
1 Cup Kikkomans Teriyaki Marinade Sauce
1 Knob of Fresh Ginger
1-3 Hot Chillies
1-3 Pieces of Garlic
Splash of Olive Oil
Salt & Pepper

Slice the pork length ways so you have two long fillets. Now score one side of each piece of pork (about 1cm deep). Prepare marinade by grating the ginger and finely chopping the garlic and the chilli. Mix garlic, ginger, chilli and teriyaki sauce in a large bowl. Add a splash of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Soak the meat in the marinade for as long as possible (over night is best).

Get your BBQ nice and hot and place the meat strips on the grill, then turn the heat down and close the lid on the BBQ. Depending on the heat, the meat will need about 15-20 min each side. Once it's ready, allow it to sit for 5min and then slice it into 2cm steaks. Your meat should be MEDIUM with a slight pink tinge in the middle. Serve with aioli on the side. This will serve 4 easy...or one for a few days. Enjoy!
