Cranberry Chile Pork Šašliks

• 1/2 lb to 1 lb pork¹, cut into 1" - 2" chunks
• 150 g cranberries
• 1 dried ancho chile, stemmed and seeded
• 3 tbsp honey, to taste
• 1 - 2 tsp salt, to taste
• hot water, as needed

Soak ancho in hot water until soft, about 30 minutes. Drain and discard soaking water. In a blender or food processor, combine cranberries, ancho chile, honey and salt and puree. Add enough hot water to make the marinade pourable.

Pour marinade over pork. Marinate for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight. Remove pork from marinade and skewer. Grill over moderate fire until cooked through. Best with wood smoke!

Notes:

1. There is enough marinade for a pound of pork, maybe a bit more.
