Prep Time 30 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes
Total Time 1 hour

Ingredients
  

  • 1 - 1.5 # of meat - beef pork or chicken cut into cubes or strips
  • Marinade of your choice
  • Seasoning of your choice
  • Onion cut into large bite sized pieces. White and red and nice for color
  • Bell peppers cut into large bite size pieces. Red and green are nice for color
  • Cherry tomatoes
  • Whole mushrooms cut in half
  • Summer yellow or zucchini squash cut into slices

Instructions
 

  • Marinade the meat, overnight if possible.
  • Cut up the vegetables, and toss with some oil and the seasoning of your choice.
  • If using wooden skewers, soaking them in water will make them less likely to burn while cooking.
  • Slide the vegetables on the skewers - alternating vegetables.
  • Slide the meat on the skewers, avoid crowding them too tight so that they cook and brown properly.
  • Season the meat lightly and put over coals in the fire pit.
  • Place the skewers of veggies to the side, or put them on a little later than the meat.
  • Move the skewers around over the coals to make sure everything cooks evenly.
  • Cook until the veggies are done and the meat is ~150 degrees internal.
  • Serve over rice or with a pasta side dish.
