I’m a bit impatient. This could actually be a LOT impatient. Just ask my husband. This goes for every day life, but also cooking and grilling. I want things done and I want them done now. He’s the one to have patience when grilling and I am not. That’s why he’s famous for his smoker recipes like his Easy Smoked Pork Loin, which I could even pull off because there’s not a lot of babysitting!
I invested in this awesome Wireless Meat Thermometer so I don’t have to stand right next to the grill babysitting my food. I just pop it into my steak or whatever I’m grilling, then take the timer inside with me. I set it to what type of meat I’m grilling and the temp I want it to achieve. Then when it gets to that point it just beeps and I run out and check it.
Perfect for this grill that can’t focus on one thing at a time! And for the lady with three kids that always need something.
My husband actually loves it too. He often wanders into his shed, imagine that, and doesn’t have to sit there to babysit the grill either.
What is it with men and their sheds? I think he could just sit in it to feel manly sometimes. Every guy that I met for a year after we built it had something to say about it.
Oh, you have that new shed. Man I wish I had a shed like that. On, and on and on….
In fact today we were in meeting with our retirement guy and he had to bring up the shed! How nice the shed is, how he needs one, what Jason has in the shed etc. It does not help that we live on a US Highway in small town Minnesota where I feel like half the people that live here end up driving past our house!
I’m pretty sure they knew what color the cabinets were in the back of the shed! Gotta love small town living that’s for sure!
This is also why I make sure the grill is hid behind the house on our patio back there. Otherwise I’m afraid I’d have guests over all the time when I’m trying to “work” aka developing new recipes for you!
After moving to our house we quickly found out everyone knew when we ate outside on the patio next to our house because it faces the highway. We quickly learned to hide behind the house on that patio!
That is also where I plan on putting my hot tub. You know, when my dreams come true.
For now, I’ll be satisfied with enjoying these delicious steak kabobs on my back patio!
Tips for Making Marinated Grilled Vegetable and Steak Kabobs
- Buy a great cut of meat. Splurge on a better quality steak so they are tender not tough and chewy. I recommend a sirloin steak! Otherwise Tenderloin steaks cuts would work too.
- Don’t over cook it. You splurged on that great cut of meat don’t ruin it by over cooking it! Serve these Marinated Grilled Vegetable Steak Kabobs rare or medium rare.
- Cut your meat evenly. This helps it cook at the same rate.
- Start with a clean grill. Pretty basic, but don’t forget this step.
- Before you place the kabobs on your grill have it piping hot. This will help you achieve a nice char on the kabobs. You’ll know it’s time to turn the kabobs when they release easily from the grill.
- Remember to baste these steak kebobs ever time you turn them.
- Remember to soak your skewers before you plan on making these! If you tend to forget like me invest in some metal skewers.
Now you know how to achieve the perfect Steak Kabobs! Fire up that grill and invite your friends over or just make a great meal for your family. Either way you will be enjoying these delicious Marinated Grilled Vegetable and Steak Kabobs!
Don’t forget the Grilled Cheesy Garlic Pull Apart Bread to serve with it! I mean you can’t go wrong with Garlic, Butter, Cheese and Bread right?
