I make this for the 4th of July and have used it on pork, beef, and chicken. I love to marinate my mushrooms too. The marinade is sweet with a mild kick.

skewers
½ cup maple syrup
½ cup lime juice
6 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste

1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 pound cubed beef stew meat
1 (8 ounce) package whole mushrooms

Steps:

Whisk maple syrup, lime juice, garlic, ketchup, soy sauce, and red pepper flakes together in a bowl until marinade is smooth.
Place beef in a bowl; pour in marinade and stir to coat. Marinate beef in the refrigerator, at least 3 hours.
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Soak skewers in water for at least 10 minutes.

Cook kabobs on the preheated grill until vegetables are tender and beef is cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes per side.
