Beef and Veggie Shish Kabobs

Beef & Veggie Shish Kabobs
Serves 2
I threw this together on Memorial Day so I could grill them but then as luck would have it, ran out of gas for the grill just as I was putting them on! Thank goodness for great neighbors as I ran next door and threw the skewers on her grill that was already hot as she took her dinner off. The results: It was off the hook!

professional phtographer!  You can see proof at her photography site HERE!

    Meatloaf Ingredients:

2 eggs, beaten

1/4 cup milk (optional)

Small onion, finely chopped

3 TBS. ketchup

1 TBS. Sriracha (you can find this in the asian section of the store)

1/4-1/2 cup bread crumbs

2 TBS. olive oil

Salt & Pepper to taste

I usually put the eggs, bread crumbs, milk, olive oil, ketchup garlic and sriracha into a 2 cup glass measuring cup and mix them together.

Chop the onion and add to meat. Mix in the remaining ingredients.

Place meat mixture into bread pan.

Bake at 350 degrees for approx. 50 mins. Top for the last 15 mins. with the following:

Beef or Venison Stew

This has been a favorite for years. I alter a bit by adding some extra wine, hee hee or sometimes additional water/broth to expand it if I’m having a crowd over.

• 3 pounds boned venison or stewing beef

• ¼ cup flour

• 2 tsp. salt (optional)

• Lots of freshly ground black pepper

• 3 to 4 TBS. vegetable (or olive) oil

• 1 cup chopped onions

• 2 cloves garlic minced

• 1 TBS paprika

• 1 cup water (I put a beef bouillon cube in for extra flavor)

• 1 TBS tomato paste

• 1 ½ cups dry red wine

• 3 carrots peeled and sliced on the diagonal

• 2 potatoes peeled and chopped

• 1 small package frozen petit corn

• 1 small package frozen green beans

• 1 cup sour cream

Add salt and pepper to flour. Roll meat in the flour mixture to coat thoroughly.

Brown meat and onion in the oil in a dutch oven pot. When the meat and onion are starting to brown add the garlic. If you add the garlic too soon it will burn easily so I always add it later just a couple of mins. before adding the rest of the ingredients.

Add paprika, water, wine and tomato paste and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for a couple of hours.

Then add carrots and potatoes.

Simmer for about 15 mins. more then add the frozen veggies and simmer for about 10 to 15 more mins.

Add the sour cream just about 5 or 10 mins. before serving. (This is an optional ingredient. It’s really great with it added but if you’d rather leave it out the recipe will still be delicious)

Black Peppercorn Marinated Steak – FAST & EASY

Ribeye steak

Weber’s Black Peppercorn marinade Follow the directions on the marinade package.

Put the steaks in a large gallon size ziplock bag in the marinade

The best part about this marinade is that you marinate it NO MORE than 15 minutes!

Put steak on a hot grill or in the broiler and cook until desired doneness.

We like to accompany this one with some roasted idaho potatoes. You can cook them 3/4 of the way done in the microwave then slice them lengthwise down the middle then down the middle again so that you have spears. Drizzle some olive oil over them then sprinkle spices all lover them.

We like: fresh ground black pepper cayenne pepper tarragon garlic powder Then roast the herbed potatoes on the grill for about 20 minutes turning at least once.

What to do with Leftover Roasted Chicken or Roasted Pork

Now that you are using your grill to roast chicken or pork you are Probably wondering what else you can make with the leftovers. Well, here’s a wonderful way to use them up and please the crowd!

Roast Pork

Roast Pork on the Grill

Start by sauteing some onion in about a tablespoon of olive oil. Then pull the Meat from the bone and put it in the pot.

Add some fresh ground black pepper and pour Just add enough chicken stock or broth over it to just cover it. Add some chopped fresh Cilantro and the juice of one fresh lime. Simmer the meat for at least an hour, adding some more broth/stock as needed. Don’t let it get too dry.

While you are waiting for the meat to simmer, you can start fixing the rest of your meal.

Here’s a recipe for red salsa (known as Pico de Gallo) that is simple, fresh and very tasty. 6 plum tomatoes 1 small onion Fresh cilantro Lime juice Jalapeno peppers (either fresh or out of a jar) Optional Chop the tomatoes and the onion very fine. Add chopped cilantro, lime juice and jalapeno (if using).

salsa

Homemade Pico de Gallo

You can also make some homemade guacamole to go with this meal. 2 ripe avocados (not so ripe that they are mushy. Just ripe enough to feel a little soft) cup chopped onion Chili powder, cumin, fresh ground black pepper, salt, cayenne pepper (only use about a tsp. of each) Lime juice (about 2 limes) Fresh cilantro Cut open avocados and scoop the inside out with a spoon or you can peal them if they aren’t too ripe and put the insides in a bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and mash with a fork until desired consistency. We like it a bit lumpy.

Guacamole

Homemade Guacamole is the BEST

Once the meat is ready you can heat a tsp. of canola oil in a frying pan and heat some corn tortillas. Grab some meat out of the pot with a pair of tongs and put it in the tortilla. Add some grated cheese (cheddar or pepper jack) and then top with fresh guacamole and salsa! You can add more toppings if desired: chopped black olives, chopped jalapenos, sour cream

You can fry the tortillas in oil so they are flat and crispy and layer the ingredients for a tosdada too!

Get creative!

Just remember “Fresh is Best!”
