Instructions
- Whisk all marinade ingredients into a large glass bowl. Add the chunks of meat into the marinade. Let stand covered in the refrigerator for several hours, or in a vacuum seal back overnight before skewering.
- Remove the meat from the marinade and sprinkle with seasoned salt and seasoned pepper on all sides. Skewer the meat leaving space between each chunk so it will char evenly.
- In a separate glass bowl, toss the vegetables with the olive oil. Add seasoned salt and seasoned pepper.
- Get the grill very hot, around 500℉. Use oak charcoal and a few chunks of mesquite. Grill the meat skewers, turning frequently with the lid open until a thermometer inserted into the meat reads 135 degrees, then remove to a platter.
- Use an oiled grill basket for large mushrooms, zucchini, bell peppers, red onions, and tomatoes. Toss frequently while grilling. Grill until charred, then quickly remove to the platter.
- Let the meat rest for several minutes before serving.
- Serve with cooked white rice and a dash of soy sauce.
