Marinate the beef & assemble:
- Make the marinade for the kabobs and either place the cubed beef pieces in a zip bag with the marinade for 15 to 45 minutes, or up to overnight. You can also use a marinating tray to marinate the skewers already assembled. While the beef marinades, this is a great time to soak your skewers.
- Thread the cubes of meat onto the skewers, alternating with vegetables if using.

Grill the Kebabs:
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat, about 375F, and once hot, grease your grates by oiling a folded-up paper towel on long grilling tongs.
- Place the beef skewers on the grill in the opposite direction of the grill lines. Grill, for about 5 minutes per side, for a total of 10 to 15 minutes depending on the thickness, until the internal temperature of the meat reaches between 140F and 145F, to your desired doneness.
- Remove the kabobs from the grill on a tray. Cover them with foil if you're still grilling other items.
