Beef Kabobs

[Walking Dude]

since i really can't put a temp probe in these, about how much TIME will they take on the smoker.......will finish up just a bit on the grill............

[doctor phreak]

well its hard to tell how much ( lbs ) you have there but guessing by the pic i would say 3 hrs at 225-250 maybe a little less.....imho...take pics

1/2 lb cubed

What kind of doneness are you looking for? Med Rare? Well done?

I would think about 45 minutes on the smoker and few minutes on the grill and you would still have some pink in the middle.

I guess since you have a few of them you could start some sooner if someone wanted them well done.

med rare........i also noticed they are jammed pretty tite together......trying to talk momma into spreading these out, which will make more kabobs, and put veggies in between...........i am NOT a kabob fan, just because of the veggies, but SHE can graze on them.........

Nice KaBoobs. I usually just do the push test. If you touch your index finger to your your thumb and push on that muscle on your hand ( sort off the side of the circle you index and thumb have created ) it is soft, so the meat is rare. Now go to the next finger and muscle gets firmer, this is just over rare, now the next finger ( this is the one I cook my steaks to.) and med rare. when you get to your pinky to thumb it is a well done feel. Not for me but some prefer it that way.

Nice looking Bob's... I would smoke them for around 1 to 1 1/2 hours in a hot smoker 275-285* may not need much more than that.. But I like mine Med Rare

I do love them grilled with LOTS OF VEGGIES...

Good advice above.

AND - chunks of Vidalia onions...they are so darn good.

What cut of beef are you using? I usually use comercial grade tenderloin for beef kabobs. Just got a whole one for $3.99 lb. Marinated for a few couple of day they are tasty and tender. I grill them directly over lump coal to medium rare.

Don't be so quick to take them apart. When I do any kind of kabob I put all the same items on a skewer. Onions go on one skewer, mushrooms go on one, meat goes on a couple of them, so on and so forth. Different meats and veggies cook at different times. I take them each off when they done, pull off the skewers and mix together on a platter. Makes for a great presentation and serves nice familiy style.

Good idea. I've always had burned tomatoes....

The only time I wont mix them, is for a big gathering, where the kabobs end up as finger food (grab a skewer, and eat so to speak).

I too just do the meat separate... (On the grill though...Haven't smoked them yet) and I do my veggies in a wok at high heat when the meats resting... (freaking amazing) Put them together after... No complaints so far...
