The Santa Maria attachment on the new FYR Grill is what allows you to raise and lower the cooking surface over the heat source, while controlling the cooking temperature. This versatility is particularly useful when cooking various types of meat, as it allows for the delicate precision needed. How to get the best char Let your fresh meats reach room temperature before cooking to ensure they cook evenly and retain their juiciness. This little step can make a big difference in achieving that perfect, mouthwatering char. How to Make the Meat Skewers Recipe The Baste First, let’s make the rosemary-infused basting sauce. Add your beef tallow to a small skillet over medium-low heat. Toss in the rosemary, thyme, oregano, green onions, garlic, FYR BLK Hot Sauce, and a squeeze of lemon. Let it simmer for about 5-7 minutes. This will infuse the tallow with all those delicious flavors. The Meat Prep Next, for our Meat Skewers Recipe, let’s cube the ribeyes into manageable beef chunks. Slather them in canola oil and then season them generously with the Gaucho Steakhouse Rub. Thread the pieces onto the sturdy FYR metal skewers, making sure they’re evenly spaced. For the pork chops, cube them, coat them with canola oil, and then season with the Garlic Herb Rub. Skewer them up just like the ribeyes. Lastly, cube the chorizo sausage and then thread them onto skewers as well. FYR Grill Preheat your FYR Grill to medium heat using the Santa Maria attachment without the grill grates. Place the skewers on the grill and start cooking. Slowly rotate them, while basting regularly with the tallow mixture to build up an epic crust. For your basting brush, use a bundle of herbs. Keep an eye on the temperatures: 120 degrees F for the internal temperature of the steak, 145 degrees F for the pork, and 165 degrees F for the chorizo. Once the meats hit their respective temperatures, remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes. Finally, garnish your trio of tasty meats with chopped parsley and a sprinkle of black pepper before serving. Cheers! What to Serve with Meat Skewers These meat skewers go with just about anything your heart desires. Serve them up with your favorite vegetables or on a bed of aromatic rice. Or, serve them with a fresh cucumber salad or a simple green salad made with cherry tomatoes, red onion, and feta. Grilled bell peppers complement the meat perfectly, and I love adding a splash of soy sauce or Worcestershire sauce while they’re grilling for added depth. Leftovers & Reheating If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container or ziploc bag in the fridge. To reheat, you can, of course, reheat them on the girll with the meat tucked inside aluminum foil packets. Or, use an oven method by wrapping the skewers in aluminum foil and heating them at 350 degrees F until warmed through. More Skewers! FAQs for Meat Skewers Can I use different kind of meat in the recipe? Absolutely, you can mix it up with different types of meat in this recipe. If you’re feeling fancy, go for the best beef cuts like filet mignon, New York Strip, or Wagyu steak. Just remember, different meats have different cooking times and temperatures. For example, chicken needs to hit an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, which is different from what beef and pork require. Adjust your cooking times to make sure everything is cooked safely and perfectly. What’s better a digital thermometer or old school analog? Both digital and old-school analog thermometers have their pros and cons. A digital thermometer provides quick and accurate readings, making it easy to ensure your meat reaches the perfect internal temperature. They are especially handy for grilling, where precision is key. On the other hand, old-school analog thermometers are durable and don’t require batteries, but they can be slower and sometimes less accurate. I highly recommend going with the digital thermometer for its speed and precision. What’s so special about the new FYR Grill? One of the best things about the new FYR Grill is its versatility including the standout feature is the adjustable Santa Maria attachment. This bad boy lets you easily raise and lower the cooking surface over the heat, making it perfect for managing high heat while getting that perfect sear on any meat. Plus, the FYR Grill is built tough and designed for top-notch functionality, making it a must-have for your outdoor cooking setup.
