KA-BAM KABOBS MARINADE



Ka-Bam Kabobs Marinade image

This is my favorite steak marinade it's from Emeril Lagasse's recipe for Ka-Bam Kabobs. Is great just as a marinade for steaks on the grill or for kabobs too. It calls for Baby Bam Seasoning which I you can buy at the store or you can make it using Mermaidmagic's "Recipe #104844".

THE BEST SHISH KEBABS



The Best Shish Kebabs image

This backyard grilling staple is nothing short of delicious. But the pre-made kebabs from the grocery store leave us underwhelmed--with tough pieces of meat and chunks of vegetables that always seem to end up either burnt or undercooked. For our beef, we chose tenderloin, which chars beautifully and stays tender during cooking. The vegetables are cut small enough to cook through without burning or falling apart and the tangy marinade brings everything together.

Time 2h30m

Yield 4 skewers

Number Of Ingredients 15

Nonstick cooking spray
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
4 scallions, finely chopped
2 tablespoons Dijon
2 large cloves garlic, finely grated
2 teaspoons granulated sugar
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup olive oil
1 pound beef tenderloin, cut into 1- to 1 1/2-inch pieces (about 20 pieces)
1 medium red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 16 pieces)
1 medium yellow bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 16 pieces)
2 medium red onions, root left intact, cut into 16 wedges
1 large zucchini, cut into 1/2-inch thick rounds (about 16 pieces)

Steps:

  • Soak the skewers in water for at least 15 minutes and up to overnight. Pat them dry and spray lightly with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Whisk the vinegar, scallions, Dijon, garlic, sugar, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper in a medium bowl or large liquid measuring cup. Whisking constantly, slowly drizzle in the olive oil until emulsified.
  • Put the beef pieces, bell peppers, onions and zucchini in a large resealable plastic bag. Reserve 1/4 cup marinade and pour the rest into the bag and seal. Toss the bag so the meat and vegetables are well coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours and up to overnight.
  • Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
  • Thread the meat and vegetables onto a skewer in the following order: beef, zucchini, red pepper, yellow pepper and onion. Repeat the threading three more times, ending with a piece of beef (there should be 5 pieces of beef and 4 pieces of each vegetable on the skewer). Repeat with the remaining skewers and ingredients.
  • Sprinkle the kebabs with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Grill at an angle, uncovered, until deep char marks form and the vegetables start to soften, 5 to 6 minutes. Flip the skewers and continue cooking until the beef has reached an internal temperature of 125 degrees F when measured with an instant-read thermometer, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove from the grill and brush the kebabs with the reserved 1/4 cup marinade. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

MIDDLE EASTERN BEEF KABOBS

These are great either right off the grill or at room temperature - which makes them the perfect dish to pack up and take to the park on a hot summer night. The preserved lemon is a surprisingly good compliment to the beef tenderloin. Try them with a side of Cucumber-Yogurt Sauce.

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

2 pounds beef tenderloin, trimmed and cubed into 16 pieces
1 red bell pepper, seeded and diced large
1 green bell pepper, seeded and diced large
4 preserved lemons, halved (see Cook's Note)
8 white mushrooms, wiped clean and stems trimmed
1 red onion, diced large
2 tablespoons chopped Italian parsley leaves
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Cucumber-Yogurt Sauce, recipe follows
1 cup plain yogurt
1/2 cucumber, seeded and diced
1 tablespoon diced onion
1 lemon, zested
Pinch dried mint
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Once your meat and veggies have been prepped let the skewering fun begin! Thread a piece of green pepper onto the skewer. Follow it with a cube of beef, then one half of a preserved lemon, a couple of pieces of red onion, another piece of beef, a piece of red pepper and cap it with a mushroom. Repeat the process with the rest of the skewers. Set all of the kabobs into a roasting pan in one layer and set aside.
  • Place the remaining ingredients in a medium sized bowl and whisk until well incorporated. Pour the mixture over the kabobs and refrigerate 1 hour.
  • Preheat an outdoor charcoal or gas grill to high heat. Place the kabobs on the grill and cook 3 minutes per side. Remove and serve immediately or let cool, pack 'em up and take them on a picnic.
  • Serve with Cucumber-Yogurt Sauce.
  • Combine all ingredients in a food processor and pulse several times to make a chunky sauce.

MOM'S BEEF SHISH KABOBS



Mom's Beef Shish Kabobs image

My Mom has cooked this recipe for as long as I remember. Now that I live on my own, I can't wait to go back home over the holidays to have this excellent dish. Mom would probably be upset that I gave it away, but it is so delicious that I think everyone should have a chance to experience it. Technically shish kabobs use lamb, so these should be called beef kabobs, but this is the family recipe and what we call it.

Time 16h45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

⅓ cup vegetable oil
½ cup soy sauce
¼ cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon prepared mustard
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon coarsely cracked black pepper
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 ½ pounds lean beef, cut into 1-inch cubes
16 mushroom caps
8 metal skewers, or as needed
2 green bell peppers, cut into chunks
1 red bell pepper, cut into chunks
1 large onion, cut into large squares

Steps:

  • Whisk the vegetable oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, black pepper, and salt together in a bowl; pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add the beef, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator 8 hours or overnight.
  • Add the mushrooms to the bag, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and reseal the bag; marinate in the refrigerator another 8 hours.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove the beef and mushrooms from the marinade, shaking off any excess liquid. Pour the marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 10 minutes; set aside for basting.
  • Thread pieces of green bell pepper, beef, red bell pepper, mushroom, and onion onto metal skewers, repeating until all ingredients are skewered.
  • Cook the skewers on the preheated grill, turning frequently and brushing generously with the reserved marinade until nicely browned on all sides and the meat is no longer pink in the center, about 15 minutes.
