One of my go-to Vietnamese preparations of pork is to marinate pork steaks (photo below) with lemongrass and grill them. Sliced up, the steaks are great bun rice noodles, tucked into a banh mi sandwich, and punches up a bowl of fluffy rice.
This morning, I discovered that CHOW.com enjoys the thit heo nuong xa as much as I do. There was a call for people to name their top 5 best recipes for 2009. My little Vietnamese restaurant-style grilled lemongrass pork recipe was among the writer's top 5 picks. When it's too cold now to cook outdoors, use a stovetop cast-iron grill. The timing will be a little longer.
What a nice way to wrap up 2009! Enjoy.

This recipe is delicious, easy, and awesome!! I'm thinking of making it tonight for my sister in law and her (very picky) 4 year old daughter who have never had Vietnamese food.

Thanks for the recipe Andrea, but that is a very disturbing image to introduce this topic!

Great recipe and site! I look forward to this site in my downtime alot. You can never have too many pork recipes and like you said its the meat in Vietnam.

I made these for a friend in the lead-up to Christmas; she asked for the recipe and they had it as their Christmas day dinner. We eat it about once every two weeks now, cooked on a tiny charcoal grill outside 😉

We made these the other night, very tasty I must say. I have not had the opportunity to eat much Vietnamese food but I certainly will now. I cooked this on a Landmann Black Dog grill - http://www.landmann-usa.com

Okay. If you tried this ploy on your parents, you wouldn't get away with it. If your kids tried it you, you wouldn't fall for it either. So why are the American people letting the Government get away with this ploy? I don't know. And I don't get it. Maybe there is just so much going on that it gets lost in the mix. Maybe it's because of the deceptive and disingenuous way it's being presented by Pelosi, Reid, and Obama.
