Pork shish kebab in honey and onion marinade
Ingredients:
- 2 kg pork neck,
- 100 g honey,
- 3 tbsp. l. French mustard,
- 0.5 kg of onion,
- pepper mixture,
- thyme (thyme),
- a pinch of hot paprika,
- a little lemon juice
- 50 ml olive oil.
Preparation:
Mix honey and mustard, lemon juice and oil well. We cut the meat into pieces of the same size, add salt and pepper to taste. Add honey-mustard mixture and thyme. Mix well. Cut the onions into rings and send them to the meat. Mix everything well again. Place under a press and leave to marinate for several hours, or even better, overnight.
We are preparing a fire - we need well-burnt coals.
Thread the meat onto skewers and add onions or vegetables between the pieces. We send it to the grill.
Place the skewers on the grill as close to each other as possible, thereby preventing heat loss, thanks to this the kebab will be juicier and cook faster.
Fry shish kebab only on hot coals, and there should be enough of them - a uniform layer of at least five centimeters over the entire area covered with skewers with meat, and in no case over an open fire!
Do not turn the meat on the skewers too often or too rarely to prevent it from drying out or burning. We watch the meat.
Don't be afraid that the kebab will taste sweet - it won't. To do this, the marinade contains a neutralizer - onions. The kebab turns out very tender, with a light aroma of mustard and a gentle spiciness.
A little patience and the kebab will be ready. The meat should be fried evenly on all sides. If you notice that it has begun to burn or has become too dry in some places, sprinkle it with marinade or water in these places.
We check readiness with a knife - make a cut along the meat, if the juice is clear, the kebab is ready!
Shish kebab from well-marinated meat is fried for 10-15 minutes and retains all the juice and taste.
Remove from the grill. Do not use sauce in this dish - enjoy the natural taste and aroma of the kebab!
Delicious and quick kebab with honey and mustard
Ingredients:
- pork - 1.5 kilograms;
- honey - 1 tablespoon;
- mustard - 1 dessert spoon;
- onion - 0.5 kilograms;
- salt;
- seasoning for barbecue.
Preparation:
To prepare an incredibly tasty, temptingly appetizing kebab, we will use pork (for kebab according to this recipe, you can use any meat that you have or that you want).
It is very good to cook shish kebab from fresh meat, not frozen. During freezing, meat loses its taste and juiciness. And for a delicious kebab, juiciness is a very important criterion.
Wash the barbecue meat thoroughly and cut off the hymen (if necessary).
To this extent, we will cook the shish kebab on the grill, cutting the meat not into cubes, but into small pieces, so that each piece of meat fits well on the barbecue and is evenly fried
Peel the onions, wash them and cut them into half rings (if you cook shish kebab on skewers, you can cut them into rings).
In order to marinate meat for barbecue, we need a deep dish (in my case, it’s a deep bowl).
Place the pork into the prepared container, mash the onion cut into half rings (rings) and mix everything well. Shish kebab really “loves” onions, so there should be a lot of onions.
Marinade for pork kebab is no less important than good meat. Different recipes use different marinades for pork. Below is the fastest and most delicious marinade recipe for pork shish kebab: based on honey and mustard.
In a separate container, combine mustard and one tablespoon of honey (you can take a little more honey, it all depends on the amount of meat), and mix everything well until smooth.
Add barbecue seasoning to the mustard mixture: and again stir everything thoroughly. If you don’t want to use barbecue seasoning, you can use your favorite seasonings that you and your family like.
Salt the meat and onions to taste and mix thoroughly (mix very well so that the salt is evenly distributed throughout the entire amount of meat).
Place the amazingly tasty marinade in a container with the meat and onions, and mix everything well again (so that every piece of meat is in the marinade, I mix the meat with my hands).
Leave the pork to marinate for one hour, under pressure.
After this time, place the spicy meat and onions in the marinade on the barbecue.
To make the kebab juicy, initially place the grill with meat on the grill with low heat and lightly bake the pork on both sides (this way a fragrant and tender crust is formed on the kebab, and the juiciness and fat will remain inside the kebab).
When the kebab is slightly baked on both sides, put out the fire with water and continue cooking the kebab until fully cooked (the kebab should be soft and golden).

Cut the chicken fillet into individual pieces. Place the pieces in the marinade for the next couple of hours. Once marinated, place the still raw chicken on a skewer or on a metal grid. Keep it over hot coals, turning it over from time to time. Until the kebab with honey is ready, all you have to do is watch and enjoy the aroma emanating from the marinated meat.

Pork baked in honey mustard sauce and cognac in the oven
Ingredients
- - 2 tbsp. + —
- — 2 kg + —
- - 1 tbsp. + —
- - 3 tbsp. + —
- Cognac – 100 ml + –
- — 1 head + —
- — several pieces (placed in a baking bag with meat) + —
- Thyme – 5-6 sprigs + –
- - 2 tbsp. + —
- - 1 PC. + —
The components of this dish allow you to get excellent-tasting meat - sweet and spicy. Made in honey-mustard glaze, it will also turn out very juicy, rosy and so tender that it will literally melt in your mouth, leaving behind an unforgettable aftertaste.
- We wash the pig meat in water, dry it with paper towels, then rub the pork with salt and chopped pepper mixture.
- Mix honey, lemon juice (from ½ piece) and prepared mustard (not powder) in a bowl. In the resulting marinade, adding thyme and the remaining half of the citrus to the marinating container, marinate the meat for 5-6 hours. After the first 3 hours of marinating, the piece must be turned over to the other side.
- When the pork is marinated, it is worth preheating the oven to 200 degrees.
- In the meantime, put the ingredients in a baking bag: put carrots, onions, garlic, thyme, half a lemon, and place marinated pork meat on top of this whole “pillow”.
We use the same thyme and half a lemon that were added to the marinade. When removing the meat from the marinade, squeeze it lightly, but not so that there is no marinade residue on it at all.
- Pour the meat laid on a vegetable “pillow” with mustard-honey marinade (the same one in which we marinated the pork), and also pour cognac into the bag.
- Close the bag (or sleeve) tightly and place it in a preheated oven.
- For the first 15 minutes, baking should be carried out at 200 degrees, then lower the temperature to 160 °C and continue baking the dish for another 35 minutes. After the specified time, open the package and pour the juice released from it over the half-cooked meat.
- Now we don’t close the bag, but put it open (so that the meat is not covered by anything) back into the oven - cook the appetizer at 180 °C for only 5-7 minutes. If your oven has a grill mode, you can turn it on for these few minutes.
- Once cooking is complete, let the pork sit at room temperature for 10 minutes to cool and set. After sitting, the dish is completely ready to serve.
If you wish, you can serve this amazing dish with original cheese balls, home-made pickled cabbage, as well as vegetables or fruits (apples go especially well), baked on the grill and more.
As for the sauce, its presence will be superfluous - our meat is already extremely juicy, because it was cooked not only in mustard and honey, but also in its own juice.
Honey duck with apples
Ingredients (for 4 servings):

Is there a celebration planned? A joyful event at the festive table should be accompanied by a dish that is memorable both in taste and appearance. Let's cook duck with apples in honey glaze!
To do this, cut the apples into slices. Lightly salt and pepper the inside of the duck. Stuff the bird with apples and “sew up” it with toothpicks. Carefully pierce the breast with a knife in several places. Salt, pepper and coat with olive oil. Pour 1 cm of water into the bottom of the baking sheet and place the duck in the oven. Every 10 min. Baste the bird with the released fat. After 1 hour, we make an incision between the thigh and the carcass and check for readiness - there should be no blood. In 10 min. Before the end of baking, brush the duck with a mixture of honey and mustard. Take out the baking sheet, remove the apples from the duck and cut it. Glazed duck reigns on the table!
Pork with prunes and apples in honey mustard sauce
This snack will definitely not be an everyday snack, because the products that it contains will not allow it to become so. A marinade based on honey and mustard, dried fruits, fresh apples and even red wine – all together will make this treat truly festive, satisfying and worthy of the attention of everyone present at the table.
Ingredients
- Apples – 1 pc.;
- Black and red pepper – 2 g each (or to taste);
- Pork (any part) – 1 kg;
- Red wine – ½ tbsp.;
- Coriander – 5 g;
- Prunes – 100 g;
- Ready-made mustard – 1 tbsp;
- Laurel leaf – 2 pcs.;
- Honey (any variety, as long as it is natural) – 1 tbsp;
- Garlic cloves – 5 pcs.;
- Salt - to taste or, like pepper, 2 g.
Cooking pork marinated in honey and mustard, with fruit and wine
- Peel the garlic cloves and divide each clove into cloves.
- Wash the meat under running clean water and dry with a paper towel.
- We make shallow cuts in the meat and place chopped garlic and bay leaves into the holes.
- Rub the pork with both types of pepper and salt.
- Coat the piece with mustard and honey, then sprinkle it with coriander.
- Place the meat in a special container (or any other container you have), fill it with good red wine, cover it with film and put it in the refrigerator for 6 hours.
- Peel ripe fresh apples from skins and seeds, then cut them into medium-sized circles.
- After marinating, transfer the pork to foil and place sliced apples and prunes next to it.
- Place the dish in foil on a baking sheet and place in a preheated oven for 1.5 hours. Cooking temperature – 180 degrees.
- After 50 minutes, unfold the foil so that the meat can not only be thoroughly baked, but also beautifully browned. From time to time, the uncovered meat in foil should be poured with the juice that will be released during baking and the remaining marinade.
As a rule, no side dish is served with such an exquisite treat - it is superfluous here. But red wine to accompany such a dish on the festive table would be very appropriate.
Preparation
Let's take a whole piece without a bone weighing about two kilograms.
It is advisable to use fresh meat, but if this is not possible, then frozen meat must be carefully defrosted before cooking.
The meat must be thoroughly washed and dried.
Peel two small heads of garlic and cut each clove into two parts. Using a sharp knife, make not very deep cuts in the thickness of the pulp, about two to three centimeters.
Place halves of garlic cloves and pieces into these slits. Thus, we must stuff our piece of meat on all sides, evenly placing all the prepared garlic and about one bunch of dill into the cuts. This way the pork will acquire a special, piquant taste and an indescribable aroma.
After this, we will mix two tablespoons of honey with the juice of half a lemon, two teaspoons of salt, one teaspoon, and with this mixture we will rub the entire large piece on all sides. We will rub it several times, each time letting the mixture dry for 10 minutes, until the entire mixture has been used. Place the prepared meat in the refrigerator to marinate for at least a day or two.
After we take the marinated meat out of the refrigerator, we need to place a piece of pork in a baking sleeve. Then we tie the sleeve on both sides and place it on a cold baking sheet. Next, you need to pierce the sleeve in three places with a needle and put it in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for 30 minutes. I can’t say exactly how long it will take. These data are indicative.
After 30 minutes, remove the pan from the oven, very carefully so as not to get burned by the steam, cut the sleeve and send the dish back for 15 minutes. This is necessary so that an appetizing, golden brown crust forms on it.
Ready pork can be served as a hot dish, but it will be no less tasty cold, reminiscent of boiled pork in taste.
That's exactly what I do. I send about half of the entire large piece to the holiday table while it is hot, and cool the rest and use it for breakfast sandwiches. Bon appetit!

- Pork (boneless piece) – 2 kg;
- Garlic – 2 heads;

- 10 minutes before the end of cooking, remove the pan from the oven, pour the marinade liquid over the steaks again and sprinkle with caraway seeds. Place the dish in the oven again. Check readiness with a knife or fork: clear juice released from the meat when pierced is a sign that the pork is fully cooked.
The meat should be served in portions, pouring its own juice over each steak. A side dish is served if meat alone is not enough. It can be a vegetable salad, boiled or mashed potatoes, cereal porridges, baked vegetables and much more. For drinks, it is best to serve red or white wine.

Sandwich with jerky and honey
Ingredients:
- Toast bread or ciabatta
- Processed curd cheese
- Dried neck
- Honey - 1 tbsp.
If you are short on time and want to quickly snack on something meaty and satisfying, then the following recipe will come in handy. Layer layers of curd cheese and any dried meat on the bread. You can green up the sandwich with lettuce or add a pop of color with chopped tomatoes. Drizzle honey on top. Try it - you'll lick your fingers! Travel lovers and beer fans will also appreciate the recipe. After all, this is a wonderful snack to go with a glass of foam!
We also have a selection of Cut the meat into not very large pieces (about 2.5 cm). Crush the garlic in a garlic press or grate it on a fine grater. Grate the ginger on a fine grater. Use only fresh ginger - anything else will not give the desired aroma. Make the marinade: mix soy sauce, honey, garlic and ginger. Leave the meat to marinate for half an hour (or better yet, an hour). Fry the sesame seeds in a dry frying pan until creamy and immediately pour them into a clean plate, otherwise they may burn. Fry the meat in vegetable oil for 5-7 minutes (marinated meat fries faster). Add the remaining marinade, pepper, and simmer the meat with honey for a couple more minutes. Add sesame seeds, stir - done! You don't have to evaporate all the liquid - it will make a great sauce. The meat turns out very juicy and extremely tasty!
