Prepare the Marinade

Add the pork cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for enhanced flavor.

Marinate the Pork

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, ensure the coals are covered with white ash.

While the pork is grilling, place the pineapple slices on the grill. Grill for about 3-5 minutes on each side until they are caramelized and have grill marks.

Grill the Pineapple

Wrap the corn tortillas in aluminum foil and place them on the grill for a few minutes to warm them up.
