BEEF OR PORK KABOBS WITH VARIATIONS



Beef or Pork Kabobs With Variations image

The marinade is what makes these kabobs so special see recipe#116996 This recipe makes a large amount but you may reduce the marinade and the meat by half. Plan ahead the meat needs to marinade for 8-24 hours (24 hours even better!) and the wooden skewers need to soak in cold water for 30 minutes before threading, and for the very best results the meat must be brought down to almost room temperature before threading, this will relax the meat fibers and create the most tender juiciest meat! This marinade is for beef or pork and is enough for up to 3 pounds meat, I make lots and then freeze the cubed meat after marinating to have ready in the freezer to grill.

THE BEST MARINADE FOR KABOBS! (BEEF, PORK AND LAMB)



The Best Marinade for Kabobs! (Beef, Pork and Lamb) image

I have a few favorite marinades that I have used for years this is one of them, this marinade will tenderize and add flavor to any cut of meat to absolute perfection and makes fantastic kabobs! This can also be used for chicken but because of the vinegar amount marinading time will need to be reduced to a maximum of 6 hours or the acid vinegar will start to "cook" the chicken, use only honey no other substitutions!.. you will love this marinade!

Tips:

  • For tender and juicy kabobs, use a combination of lean and fatty cuts of meat. For beef, choose flank steak, skirt steak, or chuck roast. For pork, choose pork tenderloin, pork shoulder, or pork loin.
  • Cut the meat into 1-inch pieces against the grain. This will help the meat cook evenly and prevent it from becoming tough.
  • Marinate the meat for at least 30 minutes before grilling. This will help to flavor the meat and make it more tender.
  • Use a variety of vegetables for your kabobs. Some good choices include bell peppers, onions, tomatoes, mushrooms, and zucchini.
  • Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before using. This will help to prevent them from burning.
  • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat before cooking the kabobs.
  • Cook the kabobs for 10-12 minutes, turning them frequently. The meat should be cooked through and the vegetables should be slightly charred.
  • Serve the kabobs with your favorite dipping sauce, such as tzatziki sauce, chimichurri sauce, or barbecue sauce.

Conclusion:

Kabobs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for summer grilling. With a variety of marinades and vegetables to choose from, you can create kabobs that are sure to please everyone at your next barbecue.
