Quick and Easy Kabobs
Sensational, succulent kabobs are quick and as easy as 1 - 2 - 3 to make! Use
these tips and charts to get started, then let your palate be your guide. Here’s how:
Choose meat, vegetable and brush-on sauce from Guide to Great Kabobs (page
12). Thread meat and vegetables on bamboo or metal skewers. Grill, turning and
brushing occasionally with sauce, until meat and vegetables are done. Use the
Grilling Kabobs chart (page 12) as a guide. Grill tasty kabobs in no time!
Kabob Success Tips
• Soak bamboo skewers in water at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
• Leave a little space between foods threaded on skewers
(tightly packed food will not cook evenly).
• To prevent sticking (and to make cleanup easier), brush cooking surface with
vegetable oil before grilling.
• Sauces that contain sugar burn easily. Brush them on kabobs only during last
5 to 10 minutes of grilling.
• To avoid food-borne illnesses caused by eating undercooked or raw meat,
boil the sauce you’ve dipped your basting brush into before serving with
cooked kabobs.
