Right. Next time you do stir fry separate the meat and veggies when cooking it and try that.

"As seen on TV"

First, you'd better own a kitchen with a lot of space (maybe you live in the Hamptons) to store this unnecessary contraption for 363 days of the year. Secondly, don't hold your knife like you're fencing.

i find that most people doing kebabs do it pretty haphazardly and without purpose. any cooking that is without purpose or plan tends to underwhelm. with proper planning they arent terribly difficult and can be delicious though.

I like the things...sure, you can make separate skewers w/one kind of item per skewer, but that's not as visually appealing as a variety of things on one pick. It's just a matter of pairing things w/similar cook times. Like beef & bell pepper chunks....and mushrooms & chicken....shrimp & snow pea pods. Don't try jamming every damn thing together & expect it to turn out okay.

Also, leave a decent amount of space between items, use two sticks to allow for easy turning, and don't overcook.

I make ka bobs at least twice a month. The advantage of ka bobs is the amount of surface space that hits the grill. IE, take a NY strip steak and throw it whole on the grill. Now take one and cut it into bite size pieces and put on skewers. The amount of meat surface exposed is exponentially greater with the ka bobs. The same principle applies to the exposed surface of grilled veggies.

My veggies for ka bobs are onions, red bell peppers and mushrooms. A guy on TV said you could grill lettuce. I threw a head of Romaine on the grill. It came out nasty.

Where is your meat case and what else do you have in it?

I work at NuNu's in Youngsville. We have everything you can possibly think of seasoned, or stuffed and seasoned. As well as fresh sausage, boudin, and a full selection of fresh cut unseasoned beef, pork, and chicken.
