Grilled Beef and Vegetable Skewers
Ingredients:
- 1 lb beef, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
- 1 small squash (zucchini or yellow squash), cut into 1-inch slices
- 4 carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 cup mushrooms, halved if large
- 2 bell peppers (any color), cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 bunch asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
- 2 tbsp oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- stainless steel skewers

Instructions:
1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
2. **Pre-Cook the Vegetables:**
- Place a stainless steel wok on the grill and heat it up.
- Add a bit of oil to the wok.
- Add the sweet potato, squash, and carrot pieces to the wok.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10-12 minutes, or until the vegetables are slightly tender but not fully cooked.
- Remove from the wok and let cool slightly.
3. **Marinate the Beef:**
- In a small bowl, toss the beef cubes with 2 tbsp of BBQ sauce, olive oil, salt, pepper and BBQ rub. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
4. **Assemble the Skewers:**
- Thread the beef cubes, pre-cooked sweet potato, squash, carrots, mushrooms, bell peppers, and asparagus onto the skewers, alternating the ingredients for a colorful presentation.
5. **Season the Skewers:**
- Brush the vegetable skewers with the remaining oil mixture, ensuring all sides are coated. Lightly season with additional rub if desired.
6. **Grill the Skewers:**
- Place the skewers on the preheated grill.
- Grill for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the beef is cooked to your desired level of doneness and the vegetables are tender with nice grill marks.
7. **Add the Steak Sauce:**
- During the last few minutes of grilling, drizzle the remaining sauce over the skewers, turning them to coat evenly. Allow the sauce to caramelize slightly on the grill.
8. **Serve:**
- Remove the skewers from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter.
- Optionally, drizzle a little more steak sauce over the top before serving.
