Beef Kabobs With Apricot Glaze Recipes

BALSAMIC-GLAZED BEEF SKEWERS

With only five easy-to-double ingredients, these mouthwatering kabobs are one of our favorite recipes. We like them with hot cooked rice and a tossed salad. To prevent wooden skewers from burning, soak them in water for 30 minutes before threading on the meat. -Carole Fraser, Toronto, Ontario

KABOB GLAZE

I "baste" my kabobs after they are cooked and off the fire. Because of the honey in the sauce, if you baste them sooner, you run the risk of drips falling into the bottom of the grill and starting flare-ups. I'd rather not have a burnt honey taste on my chicken so I just wait until the chicken is cooked and then brush them and even drizzle on extra sauce. I use this Glaze for Sausage, Chicken and Shrimp Kabobs! ;)

Steps:

While grilling your kabobs combine these ingredients in a small bowl.
Stir with a basting brush until the honey gets well incorporated. It will be almost like it melts into the Worcestershire and the cayenne gets mixed inches.
Taste it. You can always add more cayenne to make them as zippy as you'd like but it's truly impossible to take the cayenne back out. The mixing will only take a minute or so and then it can sit until the kabobs are done.

SIMPLE APRICOT-GLAZED MEATLOAF

I know everyone says their mum's meatloaf is the best and I am one of those who agree--my mum's recipe is the best! This has been one of my favorites since my childhood. While I love it served fresh and hot, a good next-day meatloaf sandwich is also a comfort food. I serve it with a nice arugula salad with cherry tomatoes, raisins, chopped walnuts, and vinaigrette dressing, or for a southern flare--garlic-smashed potatoes and freshly steamed snap green beans. Just yummy deliciousness and mum is always right!

FANTASTIC GRILLED BEEF KABOBS!

My family loves these kabobs, plan ahead the beef needs to marinate 8 hours or overnight is even better, if you are using wooden skewers make certain to soak them in cold water for a minimum of 30 minutes before using them for grilling or they will burn, this recipe serves 3-4 people (two skewers each) but I would suggest to double the recipe if you are serving more than 4 people --- cooking time is only estimated and prep time includes marinating time. The French dressing can be replaced with Russian dressing if desired, you will love these! :)

Steps:

In a bowl, combine salad dressing, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, pepper and fresh minced garlic or garlic powder (if using) mix well to combine; reserve about 1/4 cup and refrigerate.
Using a shallow glass dish place in the beef cubes, and pour the remaining marinade over the beef; toss to coat.
Cover and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight is even better.
After 8 hours, remove the beef, and discard the marinade.
Wrap the bacon slices around the beef cubes.
Then thread the beef alternately with the coarsely chopped veggies (make certain to thread the skewers through the wrapped bacon side, or the bacon will come open when grilled).
Grill over hot heat for about 10-15 minutes, basting frequently with reserved marinade, or until beef reaches desired tenderness.
