In a large bowl, combine minced garlic, minced shallots, chopped lemongrass, fish sauce, sugar, black pepper, and sesame oil. Mix well to form a marinade. Add the pork shoulder and ensure it is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

Grill the Pork
Remove the marinated pork from the refrigerator. Thread the pork onto skewers if desired. Grill the pork for about 6-8 minutes on each side or until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) and has nice grill marks.
