The kebab was originated in the Middle East and has now become a part of a wide variety of cuisines. Meat that is cut up into little chunks and then skewered is called kebab. These skewers can be cooked on an open flame, BBQ or even your home kitchen. You can also add vegetables, fruits or whatever you desire as long as the skewer is the carrier of these items. The idea of the kebab brings happy feelings as it is often times associated with gatherings that include family and friends.
This beef kebab is a family tradition that is cooked in my family on a regular basis. The ingredients used to flavor this dish turns the meat into a vibrant red color that makes you drool when you see it cooked.
Beef Kebab
When we do this recipe we use beef tenderloin. The meat is naturally tender and soaks up the marinade we add to it. You can use whatever meat you prefer. I'm sure rib eye would be a great substitute.
