It’s time to switch up the ho-hum hot dog and hamburger drill.
I married a man who loves meat and grilling as much as my daddy and granddaddy and I’m thrilled to pass this meat tradition down to the next generation. The kids’ favorite dinners are BBQ nights (and pizza) and I couldn’t be happier (about the BBQ not the pizza).
Here are some recipes for when you want to switch up the ho-hum hot dog and hamburger drill. You can now entertain this summer season with easy yet exciting BBQ recipes – time to get your grill on and make my father and grandfather proud!
INGREDIENTS
PREPARATION
1. Heat grill to medium.
2. In a small bowl, mix together honey, steak sauce, mustard, orange juice, and cinnamon to make glaze.
3. Thread 5 to 6 cubes of beef on each skewer. Brush meat cubes with glaze.
4. Grill for 8 to 10 minutes for medium doneness (or grill to your desired doneness). Instead of grilling the beef cubes, you can broil them in your oven for about 6 to 8 minutes. Keep an eye on them to make sure they don’t burn.
5. Place on serving platter and serve with Rice Pilaf tossed with Fresh Tomatoes, Olives, and Parsley.
A pretty and palette pleasing way to make your chicken look as good as your beef at your next BBQ.
INGREDIENTS
PREPARATION
MAKE IT A MEAL: Instead of skewering the chicken, simply bake it in the oven. Fill 2 pitas with cooked chicken and some chopped romaine lettuce. Top with halved tomatoes and thinly sliced red onion. Drizzle with tahini to serve. (For more double duty recipes that go from apps to meals click here.)
Food on a stick is fun for the whole family. Both kid-friendly and adult-friendly, there’s nothin’ better than pleasing the entire crowd at once.
