Cut pork shoulder or neck into smaller cubes depending on the dish; for skewers, cut into bigger pieces.

Peel the red onion and cut the ends off.

Use a pointed knife to cut thicker onion slices.

Season the pork with about 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of ground black pepper.

Pour some vegetable oil over the meat and mix until smooth.

Cover the mixture with foil and leave it in the fridge for at least 1 hour.

Thread two pieces of meat onto the skewer, leaving space at the end, followed by a piece of red onion; repeat until the skewer is filled.

Place the skewers on a tray, ensuring one end stays on the edge.

Place the tray in the oven and turn on the grill or set the fire to medium-high temperature.

After about 15-30 minutes, take out the tray and turn the skewers to the other side.

Put the tray back in the oven and leave it until the skewers are cooked evenly on all sides, turning them once or twice if necessary.
