"These kebabs are also great made with pork or chicken, besides beef. Prep time does not include marinating time, so allow time for that."

We really loved these kebabs. Great flavour, exactly how we would like these to taste. The satay sauce was really exceptional, something that you'd expect in a restaurant. I followed the recipe to a T apart from using Tabasco sauce to replace the cayenne (as I didn't have any). The whole family agrees that this is a make again recipe!
