Instructions

Step 1: In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp honey, 2 tbsp Dijon mustard, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp garlic powder, and 1/2 tsp black pepper until well combined.
Step 2: Add 1 lb cubed pork tenderloin to the marinade, tossing to coat all pieces evenly. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Step 3: Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Thread marinated pork cubes and 1 cup fresh pineapple chunks alternately onto 8 soaked wooden skewers.
Step 4: Grill the skewers for 3-4 minutes per side, turning once, until pork is cooked through and edges have light char marks, and pineapple is caramelized.
Step 5: Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before serving warm or at room temperature for picnic enjoyment.
