Preparation
  1. Begin by preparing your ingredients: cut the pork tenderloin and fresh pineapple into 1-inch cubes. Chop the red onion and green bell pepper into similar-sized pieces.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together your favorite BBQ sauce, olive oil, garlic powder, and black pepper.
  3. Transfer the pork, pineapple, onion, and bell pepper to a large bowl. Pour the prepared marinade over and gently toss.
  4. Soak wooden skewers in water for about 30 minutes. After soaking, thread the marinated ingredients onto the skewers.
  5. Preheat your grill to medium heat, around 350°F. Grill the skewers for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally until cooked through.
  6. Optionally brush the skewers with additional BBQ sauce in the last few minutes. Allow to rest before serving.
