Pork neck steaks are a great choice for the braai as they are generally quite tender and have fantastic marbling, with the small bits of fat keeping the meat juicy during the braai while at the same time, imparting flavour to the meat.
Your first choice for meat here is pork neck steaks and not pork neck chops, as the latter have a piece of bone in them. If you can’t find pork neck steaks, go for deboned pork loin chops/steaks. Failing that, debone some yourself by simply cutting the bones out of the steaks.
