SOUTHWESTERN PORK KABOBS

Great "grill out" recipe! Try serving with cilantro rice. From a Tyson pamphlet, this is the "basic" recipe. It is also great with the addition of mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, pineapple chunks and squash pieces also skewered. The more extras you add the more servings you will get!

SUCCULENT BEEF SKEWERS

Agnes Ward, of Stratford, Ontario says, "These are no ordinary beef kabobs! They're herb-infused and need to marinate at least an hour or overnight for the best flavor. If you feel like splurging, this recipe's also fantastic with beef tenderloin."
