Juicy beef kebab

Cooking juicy beef kebab is an art, but even an aspiring cook will cope with this task with a competent approach; the most important thing is to choose the right beef. Frying on charcoal does not imply long-term exposure to heat, that is, beef should reach readiness rather quickly. Best for a juicy beef skewers suitable roast beef from a thick edge or tenderloin.

Marinade is the most delicious, you can cook it according to the classic recipe (spices, salt, onion and vinegar), but I propose to depart from the traditions and do without vinegar, and, moreover, without mayonnaise, which recently penetrates all recipes. Lemon juice and onion puree are much more effective and healthier if you need to marinate the meat for a juicy kebab of beef.
