The Best Shish Kabab Recipe
This is the BEST Shish Kabab recipe for special occasions. Abrev’d as “Shisk” at our house, it has been a staple of special occasions in my Mother-in-Law’s family for decades.
Recipe
Kebab Ingredients
- Meat: 4-5lb Tenderloin or Sirloin. More than enough for 6-10 depending on how big of eaters you’re feeding. We’re big eaters, so we go big.
- Mushroom caps (white or brown).
- 1 pkg Cherry tomatoes
- 2-3 cans whole potatoes
- 2 bell peppers cut into pieces
- 1 can/jar onion pearls
- Skewers – I like the metal ones, more sturdy to better hold weight vs wood.
Marinade Ingredients
- 1 clove garlic (minced)
- ¾ cup vegetable oil
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- ¼ cup rede wine vingar
- ¼ cup red wine
- 1 tsp dry mustard
- 1 tsp pepper
- 1 tsp parsley flakes
- 1 tbsp. lemon juice
How to:
- Mix marinade ingredients in blender.
- Cube beef and pour marinade over. Save 1/3 of marinade for vegetables.
- Marinate beef in fridge 8 hours or overnight.
- Cut vegetables and marinate 4 hours using saved marinade.
- Put meat and vegetables on large skewers, brush with marinade.
- Grill on high heat 10-15 minutes. Turn frequently & brush with remaining marinade. Note – adjust time depending on desired doneness. If like your meat more rare, opt for less time.
Quick tips to go Full Dad Mode for success:
- Buy pre-trimmed tenderloin. Trimming yourself is a pain.
- Separate beef & veg on separate skewers because veg cooks faster.
- Marinate everything. If you skip marinating the veg they have no taste.
