Just when I thought I was really ready for Fall, I got a serious craving for some grilled meat on a stick and had to fire up the BBQ.

And then I had to have a sauce to dunk the meat in, so peanut butter seemed like a solid place to start.

Indonesian Pork Satay with Peanut Dipping Sauce

I was lucky to even have a few kebabs leftover to photograph because the husband was eyeing them greedily after scarfing down everything on his plate.

This dinner comes together in a total snap, as long as you remember to marinate the meat either the night before, or in the morning before you head off to work (which is what I did).

  • 1/2 tsp. dried oregano
  • 1 tsp. fresh cilantro
  • 1/2 tsp. ground cumin

  1. This looks so good!! I love your new website, but it isn’t WordPress friendly =( It takes a lot just to get to your page and be able to leave a comment, etc.

    1. Hi Whitney! I’m sorry to hear that you’ve had trouble using the site – do you think you could explain a bit more to me about the troubles you’ve been having?

      1. You know how if you’re on the WP reader, and you click on a post..sometimes it’s from WordPress and sometimes it’s their own site? There’s a few people who have their own site, but I can still comment and like through WordPress. I guess they have either upgraded through WordPress or they have mapped their domain, something like that. With your new website I have to fill out my info anytime I want to leave a comment. And since I am lazy to fill out my info, I look for a like button and there’s no like button, sniff sniff. I want to be able to acknowledge your beautiful food. Oh well, I guess I’ll have to get unlazy.

      2. Ohh, I see what you’re saying! I think it may be because I switched over to wordpress.org rather than wordpress.com. A lot of things changed on my end, too. It totally drives me nuts when I want to “like” someone’s post but it makes me go through the log in process, too. I’ll do some digging and see if I can find a way to circumvent that. Thanks so much for the heads up, Whitney!!
