These steak kabobs are juicy and bursting with buttery flavor.
Making kabobs is a slightly different way to serve a succulent, high-quality steak. It all starts with the flavorful marinade made from rosemary, balsamic, garlic, mustard, and seasonings.
Since the steak is so tender, all it needs is a 30-minute to 4-hour marinade to infuse the flavors.
Then the steak just needs a quick sear while being basted with the rosemary garlic butter for it to turn out juicy and moreish.
Serve with a buttery baked potato and a fresh green salad for the ideal BBQ meal.

- Thread the marinated steak onto the skewers, alternating with red onion and bell pepper chunks.

- Add garlic, rosemary, smoked paprika, and salt. Stir until fragrant (about 1-2 minutes), then remove from heat.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Lightly oil the grates.
- Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning every 2-3 minutes for even cooking.
- During the last few minutes of grilling, brush the kebabs generously with the rosemary garlic butter, letting it soak into the meat.
- Remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
- Drizzle any extra rosemary garlic butter on top.
- Serve with grilled veggies, a fresh green salad, or garlic butter rice!
