Greek Grilled Beef Skewers

written by Amy June 1, 2018
Greek Grilled Beef Skewers

Now that summer is here, it is time to break out the grill! These Greek grilled beef skewers come together so quick and easy- perfect for a little week night grilling action.

Why Grass-Fed

I make a point to search out the best quality meat I can. We pasture-raise our own hogs, and purchase grass-fed beef (usually a half cow) from our local farmers.

Why am I so focused on grass-feed beef? For starters:

  • Less total fat.
  • More heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids.
  • More conjugated linoleic acid, a type of fat that’s thought to reduce heart disease and cancer risks.
  • More antioxidant vitamins, such as vitamin E

It isn’t always easy to find grass-fed beef in our grocery stores (and it certainly isn’t cheap).

If you are constantly searching for quality meat (like I am!), at a reasonable price- then you have to check out ButcherBox.

When we are in between cows.. or we have run out of our hogs, I love having ButcherBox to supplement our needs!

ButcherBox delivers 100% grass-fed beef, free range organic chicken and heritage breed pork directly to your door. This is such a game-changer for people that might not have local access to quality meat, or simply want the convenience and piece of mind knowing that your meat is the highest quality… and delivered right to your door!

 

 

ButcherBox offers a few different boxes, and works out to be about $6 a meal (or less- if you choose a larger box). SIX DOLLARS for quality, grass-fed and pastured meats. That is an awesome deal!

Plus, thru June, when you sign up, you can get FREE BACON FOR LIFE.

Seriously! In case you missed it- FREE BACON FOR LIFE.

When you sign up now with ButcherBox, they will add a package of pasture-raised, nitrate fee bacon to every box you receive for the life of your subscription.

 

 

 

Now that you’ve got your monthly meat needs squared away, lets talk skewers!

You can easily add any of your other favorite veggies to these skewers, mushrooms and zucchini would be an yummy addition!

 

Greek Grilled Beef Skewers

Prep your skewers by soaking them in water as you prepare the meat and veggies.

Next, prepare a cookie sheet or baking tray by lining it with unbleached parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, combine the cubed beef, minced garlic, thyme, parsley and the lemon pepper seasoning. Use enough oil to help everything stick together, approximately 1 1/2 – 2 Tablespoons.

Start threading the veggies and meat cubes in an alternate pattern on your skewers. I fit 7 cubes of beef per small kebab.

When all meat is threaded on the skewers, place the prepared kebabs on the prepared unbleached parchment paper tray.

Place under the broiler for 8-10 minutes until cooked through (minimum internal temperature of 145F).

If grilling, grill each kebab for 4 minutes on each side, turning once.

 

 

Serve with lemon “riced” cauliflower, and a simple side salad. The perfect way to get your grilling fix – any night of the week!
