Cut pork belly into 3cm pieces and add to the marinade.

Marinate for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight in the refrigerator.

Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.

Preheat grill to high direct heat.

Thread marinated pork onto skewers, leaving space between pieces.

Brush skewers with oil before placing on the grill.

Grill skewers for about 20 minutes, turning occasionally, until cooked through and internal temperature reaches 71°C (160°F).

Baste with the basting sauce during the last few minutes of grilling.
