Expert Tips for Making This Recipe

  • Take meat out of the refrigerator to warm up before grilling, not long, about 20 minutes. It will cook more evenly.
  • Always preheat your grill.
  • Keep a little room between ingredients on the skewer. It helps with heat circulation and more even cooking.
  • Make your vegetables around the same size so they all get done at the same time. Alternatively, par bake the larger ingredients, like we do in this recipe for the potatoes.
  • Invest in a meat thermometer, Unless you’re a professional, it can be difficult to judge when the meat is done. The thermometer will take the guess work out of it for you.
  • Let your meat rest for a few minutes after cooking for all those juices to return to the meat!
