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 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
•
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.

6” Skewers
Your stainless steel skewers are sized perfectly for your reversible grill
and griddle. The 6” size allows you to place your skewers all along the
outside of the grill. For best results let the eye of the skewer hang off the
edge of the grill. Always use potholders when handling during the
cooking process.
