Notes
- Variations: We made a few skewers with just steak for our guests that are not fans of shrimp. You can also add in veggies if desired. Onion slices, bell peppers or mushrooms are great options.
- Storage: Leftover should be removed from skewers and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.
- Reheat: Place steak and shrimp in a skillet with a few tablespoons of water, cook over medium heat, stirring until heated through.
- Oven Method: Make these appetizer skewers in the oven by placing on a wire rack lined baking sheet. Bake at 375° brushing with bbq sauce after about 8 minutes. Cooking until steak and shrimp reach at least 145° using a digital meat thermometer.
