Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 to 2 pounds pork or lamb shoulder, or beef tenderloin (filet mignon), cut into 1 1/2- to 2-inch chunks
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon minced garlic
15 to 20 bay leaves, preferably fresh

Steps:

  • Start charcoal or gas grill, with the fire moderately hot, and the rack about 4 inches from the heat. If using wood skewers, soak in water while you prepare the meat.
  • Toss meat with oil, salt, pepper and garlic. Skewer meat alternately with bay leaves; if leaves break, jam between meat chunks.
  • Grill the meat 2 to 5 minutes per side, depending on the fire's heat and how well done you like your meat. Remove and serve.

These skewers were a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of salt next time.

I'm not a big fan of bay leaves, but I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed these skewers. The bay leaves added a subtle flavor that really complemented the meat.

These skewers were a little dry for my taste. I think I'll try marinating the meat next time.

The bay leaves gave the meat a really nice flavor. I'm not sure I would have thought to use them, but I'm glad I did.

These skewers were a hit at my last barbecue! The bay leaves added a unique and delicious flavor to the meat. I'll definitely be making these again.
