Pro Tips
- Soak wooden skewers for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
- Cut all pieces the same size for even cooking.
- Don't pack pieces too tightly — leave small gaps for heat circulation.
- Use rump or chuck for kebabs — they have good flavour and hold up to threading.
Resting Time
Rest for 3–5 minutes after removing from the BBQ. This allows juices to redistribute for a juicier result.
