Place pork in a shallow dish; pour marinade over pork. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight, stirring occasionally.
Drain pork, reserving marinade. On six 12-inch skewers thread pork cubes and celery, allowing space between cubes.

If using bamboo skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes before threading meat. |
