slo’s FRIDAY 7/28 poll - Shish Kabobs

[slo]

Do enjoy eating shish kabobs?
If yes….what do you enjoy on yours?
(multiple choice)



For Me….,I enjoy shish kabobs, but I rarely makes them.
When I do make them, I normally use steak, chicken, new potatoes, green pepper, onion and mushrooms.

 

[Moliphino]

I've never made them myself, and when made by someone else I only eat the meat (steak or chicken) because I don't like any of the vegetables that normally go on them.

 

[bobbiwoz]

I would enjoy all of those ingredients, but not all together. I rarely have had a shish kabob.

 

[Wood Nymph]

We'll make shish kabobs for a special family dinner. The one ingredient I add that is not on the list is zucchini.

 

[leebee]

Bring it on! We really enjoy shish kebabs, although they are a pain in the butt to make, to get everything "done" at the same time. Depending on what we are skewering, I sometimes will partially cook things in the microwave before putting them on the grill, or put all the meat on one skewer, all the green peppers on another, all onions on another, etc.

 

[Kitty 34]

Not a fan.

 

[AppleDumpling]

All of the above. We grill often and love shish kebabs. I most often use marinated chicken as the meat, but sometimes do steak, and have also done shrimp or scallops. Sometimes just do veggies. I also like zucchini, which we grow in our garden, and celery. And sometimes fresh pineapple chunks, to add some sweetness.

Yeah, I don't really get kabobs - it seems like a difficult way to eat something. Just grill me a steak and some veggies and put them on a plate, thanks.

 

[jalapeno_pretzel]

We don't have them a lot, but when we do mine are only veggies. Or maybe very rarely there will be seafood. I like all the veg listed, plus zucchini and pineapple. I've never made them with potatoes.

 

[Meriweather]

I like them, but never get them out and rarely make them.
I like steak or chicken and then mushrooms, onions and bell peppers

 

[WDWEPCOT]

I do like them I hate making them
I don’t buy them because normally they’re short on meat, long and onions, but I do like them if a restaurant, offers them I’ll get them

 

[Praying Colonel]

All of the above. Plus it's a great way to use up zucchini if you have a lot of them.

 

[leebee]

Because nobody ever has a lot of zucchini to use up...

 

[LoveDaisy]

I am not a fan, in order for the chicken to be cooked, the veggies are overcooked. I have done skewers with all meat on one, all squash one one, etc so they can be cooked properly then removed all the items and put them on a platter. But never combined on one skewer.

 

[Jeannie]

I have a recipe for pork kebabs using pork tenderloin, mushrooms, bell pepper, onion, yellow squash and/or zucchini. The marinade has oil, soy sauce, garlic, ginger powder.... and I can't remember what else! I'll make the kebabs once or twice over the summer, but I've also just made the pork with the marinade!

 

[MIGrandma]

We do kabobs sometimes when we are camping. Chicken or steak, peppers, onions, mushrooms, zucchini, pineapple.

 

[Minnesota!]

I like veggies and shrimp. However, I hate how they cook - uneven. So, I typically do not make them.

 

[Babs Johnson]

We never make them but we buy them a few times every summer to grill outside.

Sometimes we grill chunks of meat or shrimp separately from the veggies.

I have best results with meat on one skewer and veggies on another. It looks pretty when they're all combined on one skewer but you're right--the veggies will usually be done before the meat.

 

[mumto3girls]

I do chicken kebabs often, but only chicken. My family would hate all the veggies, except my vegetarian who wouldn’t eat the meat.
