Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 bamboo skewers, or more as needed, soaked in water for 30 minutes
2 pounds beef heart
2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
2 tablespoons steak sauce (such as Picapeppa®)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary

Steps:

  • Soak skewers in a bowl or water for at least 30 minutes. Drain water.
  • Trim the tough outer layer from the beef heart on a work surface using a fillet knife. Cut beef into 1/2-inch wide strips.
  • Whisk mustard, steak sauce, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and rosemary together in a bowl and pour into a resealable plastic bag (such as Ziploc®). Add beef skewers, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 4 hours, turning occasionally.
  • Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove beef from marinade and discard marinade. Thread beef onto skewers.
  • Cook beef skewers on the preheated grill until well browned and firm to the touch, 4 to 5 minutes per side.
