Grilled Marinated Shish Kebabs

This evening hubby grilled beef Shish Kebabs for dinner that I marinated overnight and all day long today. They turned out great. Both sons came for dinner this evening and the guys had theirs over rice. I grilled red peppers, onions and mushrooms, too. Since hubby doesn't like mushrooms or onions, I grilled them separately. It was such a simple meal to make. It was a beautiful sunny day and got up into the mid-upper 60s. It's supposed to be warm again tomorrow and then we have a chance of snow flurries some time this week. I snapped a few photos of the kebabs below as well as the super simple recipe for them. Enjoy!

Hi GGC,

Brrrr ... I think I'll be saving this recipe for next spring. But then again, who knows ... we may get Indian Summer yet! :-)

Hi CyberSis -- LOL, yes I was thinking that might be the farewell to grilling for the season myself -- 28 degrees this morning and going to 28 again tonight (which is probably 20 degrees lower than our normal low this time of year) -- but now they are saying it might be 72 here on Saturday -- so we may squeak another grill day in yet! :-)
