BUCK'S BEEF KABOB MARINADE



Buck's Beef Kabob Marinade image

This is the marinade my father "Buck" used for years to make beef kabobs. I think it's from some barbecue book from the 50's. It was our family favorite for birthday dinners and family gatherings. All 5 of us kids now use this recipe with our own families. The longer you marinade the beef in it (in the fridge of course), the stronger the flavor will be. I like it mild, so I make mine in the morning and marinade the beef until dinner time. Some family members do marinade for 24 hours for a stronger flavor. Be sure to use the light soy sauce instead of regular to prevent this from being too salty. Note: You may need a package of long bamboo skewers for the recipe.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of meat. For kebabs, you want to use a tender cut of meat that will cook quickly and evenly. Some good options include filet mignon, sirloin, or flank steak. If you are using chicken, boneless, skinless breasts or thighs work well.
  • Marinate the meat for at least 30 minutes. This will help to tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor. There are many different marinade recipes to choose from, so experiment until you find one that you like. Popular marinade ingredients include olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, herbs, and spices.
  • Thread the meat onto skewers. Use metal skewers for best results, as they will not burn like wooden skewers. If you are using wooden skewers, be sure to soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before using to prevent them from burning.
  • Cook the kebabs over medium-high heat. This will help to sear the outside of the meat and prevent it from drying out. Cook the kebabs for about 10 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through.
  • Serve the kebabs with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular options include tzatziki sauce, hummus, or chimichurri sauce. You can also serve the kebabs with rice, pita bread, or grilled vegetables.

Conclusion:

Kebabs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for summer gatherings. With a variety of marinades and grilling methods to choose from, there is a kebab recipe out there for everyone. So fire up your grill and get grilling!
