In a large bowl, combine the minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, dried oregano, dried thyme, ground cumin, salt, and pepper.
Add the bite-sized pieces of pork or chicken to the marinade, and toss to coat well.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight for best flavor.
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated meat onto the soaked wooden skewers.
Grill the skewers for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the meat is cooked through and slightly charred.
Enjoy your meal!
