Notes

Chef Jenn's Tips

  • You can use Woodfire Smoke to add a kiss of smoke to this dish if you like, but then you’ll need to grill with the lid closed. Watch the cooking time, and don’t overcook the pork. It’s ready at 145-F.
  • Make the tzatziki from scratch or buy it. A few additions from the shallot, capers, dill and parsley transform the sauce into an amazing accompaniment to this Ninja Woodfire Outdoor Grill Pork Souvlaki recipe.
  • You can marinate the pork overnight and even make the sauce ahead of time so that this dish is ready quickly!
