👨🍳 Instruções
- 1
Prepare the Intestines: Rinse the intestines under cold running water. In a large bowl, combine the intestines with 1 cup of vinegar and 2 tablespoons of salt. Use your hands to thoroughly scrub the intestines, working to remove any impurities and odor. This process may take about 15-20 minutes. Rinse the intestines thoroughly under cold water multiple times until the water runs clear and there is no longer a strong odor. You may need to repeat the scrubbing and rinsing process. Once clean, drain well.
⏱️ 45 minutes - 2
Parboil and Marinate: Place the cleaned intestines in a pot and cover with water. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 20-30 minutes, or until the intestines are slightly tender but still have a slight chew. Drain the intestines and let them cool slightly. While still warm, transfer them to a bowl and toss with your preferred marinade. A common Filipino marinade includes soy sauce, calamansi juice (or lemon/lime juice), garlic powder, black pepper, and a touch of sugar. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature, or longer in the refrigerator.

Skewer the Intestines: Once marinated, carefully thread the intestines onto the soaked skewers. Fold and coil the intestines neatly to create a compact skewer, ensuring they are secure. Aim for about 3-4 coils per skewer for a good bite.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 4
Grill the Isaw: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (approximately 200-230°C / 400-450°F). Grill the skewered intestines, turning them frequently. Baste generously with the sweet BBQ sauce during the last 5-10 minutes of grilling. Continue grilling until the intestines are nicely charred on the outside, slightly crispy, and cooked through, about 10-15 minutes total grilling time. Ensure they are heated through and have a pleasant smoky aroma.
