amazing shish kabobs
this is my families favorite summertime dinner, it's so good, and beleive me, you'll want to make the full amount, and if you have left over meat, you can just leave it raw and put in freezer bags and save for next time!
Steak Marinade:
2 pounds of roast, have the butcher cut into 2 inch chunks
mix:
1/4 c oil
2 T vinegar
1 t. onion salt
1 t. celery salt
3/4 t. garlic salt
1/2 salt
1 t. oregano
1/4 t. course black pepper
1 t. mustard
1 small bay leaf, crushed
Coat the meat and let stand over night in fridge
Chicken/Turkey Marinade:
2-3 pounds chicken or turkey breast, cut into 2 inch chunks
mix:
1 can Sprite
3/4 c. soy sauce
3/4 c. oil
1/4 t. garlic powder
1/2 - 1 t. horseradish
Coat the meat and let stand over night in fridge
Other additions:
depending on what you like/dislike you can add to this list, this is just what my family likes:
-bacon wrapped carrots: cook the carrots until you can get a toothpick through, but not enough that they are mushy (boiling about 10 minutes) cut bacon in half, and wrap around the carrot, hold in place with a toothpick, (it sounds weird, but believe me...so good!)
- bacon wrapped squash: same way as above, but you don't have to cook the squash, it's already soft enough
- purple onion
- sausage, in about 1 inch pieces
- brats, in about in inch pieces
- green, yellow, and red peppers
- mushrooms
We usually just put all the ingredients out on the table and let people build their own kabob, or you can put them together before hand. We have this trough that we use for the bbq brackets, but a grill works just fine, you just have to watch it closer to make sure the veggies don't burn before the meat is done, so cook on a low heat.
Enjoy, and happy summer!!!
