Beef Shish Kabobs On The Grill Food

BEEF SHISH KABOBS

Steps:

• Cut onion in half. Grate half of the onion and combine in a measuring cup with oil, vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, mustard, thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper.
• Cut the other half of the onion into 1 ½-inch squares. Set aside.
• Place the beef cubes in a large zip-top plastic bag. Pour ½ of the marinade into the bag, seal, and refrigerate. Marinate beef for at least one hour, or up to overnight.
• Set aside the remaining marinade to use for basting later.
• When ready to prepare the kabobs, remove beef cubes from the marinade. Discard marinade in the bag.
• Thread beef and vegetables onto separate skewers (if using wooden skewers, be sure to soak them in water first).
• Brush vegetable skewers with reserved marinade.
• Broil kabobs 3 inches from heat for 8 minutes. Turn and broil an additional 8 - 10 minutes, or until done. Keep an eye on the vegetables - the tomatoes tend to cook a bit faster, while the peppers and onions may need an extra minute of cooking time. Just remove each skewer from the broiler (or grill) when cooked to desired tenderness.
• Alternatively, you can grill the shish kabobs for about 20 minutes, turning regularly.

BEEF SHISH KABOBS ON THE GRILL

Steps:

• If you are using bamboo skewers, start by submerging them in water using a dish or a paper towel to hold them underwater. Let them soak for 30 minutes. We use double skewers as it makes it easier to turn without having the ingredients spin on the skewer. You can use two bamboo skewers or buy some double prong skewers.
• Make the marinade. In a stainless or glass bowl large enough to hold the meat, add the wine, salt, sugar, paprika, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix the marinade.
• Cube itCut the steak into 1 inch to 1 1/2 inch cubes. Add the cubes to the marinade bowl. Let it rest for 2 hours in the fridge. Then remove it from the refrigerator and let it come back to room temperature like we did in the filet mignon recipe. Let it sit at room temp for about 30 minutes.
• Cut the onion in half and then cut each half into quarters. Cut the green pepper open and clean out the seeds. Cut the pepper into 1 inch squares (or close to square as you can). You can leave the mushrooms whole, but for larger mushrooms, we recommend you cut them in half. Optionally you can marinade the veggies in Italian dressing.
• Skewer ewe Well, skewer beef in this case. Lamb kabobs are a different recipe. We like to alternate between onions and peppers, as they add great flavor to the meat while cooking. We also throw the mushrooms in every now and then. The onion, peppers and meat play well with the mushrooms. It's nice to see the meat and vegetables getting along so well.
• After assembling the kabobs, brush some oil on the skewered meat and veggies at this point, to keep them from sticking.
• Prep the grillIf using gas, heat the grill on high for 10 minutes prior to cooking. If cooking on coals, it is best to use natural hardwood charcoal. Add enough coals to cook over a high heat for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Grill 'emPlace the kabobs on the hot grill directly over the flame or coals. Keep the lid open since we are cooking on direct heat. Grill for 10 to 12 minutes, rotating 90 degrees every 4 minutes, until the meat is cooked to desired level of doneness. Remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for 3 or 4 minutes before serving.
• Meat on a stick!
