Ingredients
- 1 pound (455 g) beef round roast, trimmed
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) olive oil
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) balsamic vinegar
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
- about 16 stuffed green olives.
- 1/2 medium onion salt and pepper
Method
- Cut the beef into cubes about 1 1/2 inches (4 cm) square
- Put them in a large bowl or in a large resealable plastic bag
- Combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and garlic
- Reserve some marinade for basting and pour the rest over the beef cubes
- If you’re using a bowl, stir the whole thing up to coat the cubes
- If you’re using a resealable plastic bag, press out the air, seal it, and turn it a few times to coat
- Either way, throw the beef in the fridge and let it marinate for at least a few hours
- If you’re going to use bamboo skewers, this is a good time to put them in water to soak, too
- When its time to cook, first get a fire going
- You’ll want to set a gas grill on medium or let coals get well covered with ash
- Now, pull out the beef cubes, the olives, and the half onion
- Cut the onion half into quarters
- Separate the onion into its separate layers
- Drain the marinade off of the beef cubes
- Skewer a beef cube, then an olive, then a layer of onion, then a beef cube, and so forth
- Build all three skewers evenly
- Sprinkle the kebabs lightly with salt and pepper
- Fire ready? Throw the kebabs on the grill and cook for about 7 to 10 minutes per side
- Baste a few times with the reserved marinade, using a clean utensil each time
- You want them cooked through but still a little pink in the center
