Everything you need to know about delicious meat skewers
Are you looking for a tasty and easy dish to prepare for your next barbecue? Then meat skewers are the perfect option! With juicy pieces of meat, crunchy vegetables and rich spices, meat skewers are a favourite with adults and children alike. In this article, we take a closer look at everything you need to know about making delicious meat skewers.
The best meats for meat skewers
For meat skewers, there are different types of meat that work well. It is important to choose meat that remains tender even after grilling. Chicken, pork, steak and lamb are all excellent choices for meat skewers. Make sure you cut the meat into even cubes so that they cook evenly on the barbecue.
Marinades and seasonings
Marinating meat before threading it on skewers is essential for adding flavour and maintaining juiciness. Garlic, lemon, olive oil, paprika and cumin are some popular ingredients for marinades. Let the meat marinate for at least a few hours, or preferably overnight, before grilling.
Vegetables and additions
Meat skewers can also be brightened up with an assortment of colourful vegetables, such as peppers, onion, mushrooms and cherry tomatoes. These not only add flavour but also make for an attractive presentation. As with the meat, it is important to cut the vegetables into equal pieces so that they cook evenly.
The grilling process
Once you've threaded all the meat and vegetables onto the skewers, it's time to grill them on the barbecue. Place the meat skewers on a moderately hot barbecue, turning them regularly until they are evenly cooked and nicely browned. Be careful not to grill the meat for too long, as it may become dry.
