Ingredients
- 1/2 pound thin-cut bacon, minced
- 1 pound ground pork butt
- 2 cloves garlic, grated
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro
- 1 teaspoon grated peeled ginger
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce

- Dampen your hands.
- Form the meat into 12 balls.
- Thread a piece of lemongrass halfway through each ball; press the meat mixture down the stalk to form a sausage-like shape, leaving some of the stalk uncovered for the handle.
