Notes
You can use wood (bamboo) or metal skewers. I like to use metal skewers because they don’t bend or break. If you use bamboo skewers, make sure to soak the skewers for 30 minutes in cold water so that they don’t burn on the grill.
You want your veggies to be about the same size as your meat so that everything touches the grill.
The longer you marinate the meat, the more flavorful the end product will be. You can leave the steak in the marinade for up to 24 hours.
