Time: 40 minutes plus marinating time
Complexity: easily
Servings: 4 - 6

Serve these kebabs without sauce to savor the incredible flavor the meat acquires from marinating in a mixture of bourbon, grainy mustard, and spices. Soak the steak for as long as possible, ideally 6 hours, for a juicy, richly flavored kebab. This recipe uses flavorful tri-tip steak, which is cut into bite-sized pieces, marinated, and skewered with red onion slices. Be sure to soak the wooden skewers in water first to prevent them from burning on the grill.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Prepare the marinadeIn a small saucepan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the thyme, garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the garlic softens, about 4 minutes. Remove from the heat, carefully pour in the bourbon, and return to the heat. Simmer until the liquid has reduced by more than half, about 5 minutes. Pour into a large bowl; stir in the brown sugar, mustard, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Let cool to room temperature.
  2. Place the meat in a bowl, mix well and leave to marinate in the refrigerator for 2-6 hours.

  3. Soak twelve 8-10 inch (20-25 cm) wooden skewers in water for about 30 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the meat from the marinade, discarding the garlic and thyme. Thread the steak and red onion onto the skewers. Season the kebabs with salt and black pepper.
  4. Brush the grill grate with vegetable oil. Grill the kebabs, turning occasionally, until the onions and steak are well browned, 4 to 7 minutes for medium-rare.
