Apricot Glazed Pork Kabobs

This is a fun recipe for summer gatherings. Serve the kabobs with corn on the cob, your favorite baked beans, and potato salad.

1 pound boneless pork loin, cut into one-inch cubes
1 (10-ounce) jar apricot preserves
4 tablespoons orange liqueur or orange juice
2 tablespoons butter

Stir together preserves, liqueur and butter, simmer in a small saucepan until butter is melted. (OR combine ingredients in a 2-cup glass measure; microwave on High 1 minute).

Place pork cubes in heavy plastic bag, pour 3/4 cup apricot mixture over to coat. Marinate at least 30 minutes.

Thread pork onto 4-6 skewers, grill over hot coals 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally and basting with marinade.

Heat remaining apricot sauce to boiling and serve alongside kabobs, if desired.
