#### **2. Marinate the Ingredients**
Place the meat in a resealable plastic bag or a bowl and pour half the marinade over it. Toss to coat. In a separate bowl, marinate the vegetables with the remaining sauce. Let everything sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor).
#### **3. Assemble the Skewers**
Thread the marinated meat and veggies onto the skewers, alternating colors and textures for visual appeal and even cooking. Donβt pack them too tightlyβleave a little space between each piece to allow heat to circulate.
#### **4. Grill to Perfection**
Preheat your grill (or grill pan) over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates. Grill the skewers for 10β12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the meat is cooked through and slightly charred, and the vegetables are tender-crisp.
#### **5. Serve & Enjoy**
Serve your barbecue skewers hot off the grill with extra BBQ sauce on the side, a sprinkle of chopped herbs, or a squeeze of fresh lemon for brightness.
