Ingredients & Substitutions

Australian grass fed sirloin is my choice for beef. It is tender, flavorful, and does not need a lot of marinade. This cut of beef is known for being mostly lean and healthy. In addition, it is fairly budget friendly too! Feel free to substitute your favorite cut of beef if desired.

Coconut aminos is the gluten free and soy free version of soy sauce. It adds a great depth of flavor. If not Paleo or gluten free, substitute soy sauce.

A little olive oil goes into the marinade. It helps tenderize the meat. Avocado oil can be used too.

The sea salt and pepper provide a little punch of flavor to the beef.

Coconut sugar provides a little bit of sweetness. This Paleo granulated sweetener is great for both sweet and savory recipes. Feel free to use brown sugar if desired.

These oven baked beef kabobs are great with peppers and onions! Feel free to use your favorite veggies.

The pesto drizzle is entirely optional, but it does provide a unique flavor. I highly recommend this Whole30 Pesto!

Sirloin tips

Marinade

A simple marinade helps tenderize the grass fed steak and adds flavor!

The marinade is made with coconut aminos and olive oil. It is subtle enough to let the natural taste of the sirloin shine.

Some sea salt, ground pepper and coconut sugar are added to the beef before baking. These ingredients add just a hint of flavor and sweetness.

How to Grill Beef Kabobs

To grill beef kabobs, first prepare steak and marinade as written here.

Preheat grill to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

Brush grill lightly with olive oil. Place beef kabobs on the grill.

Grill until internal temperature of meat reaches at least 135 degrees Fahrenheit, about 9 to 10 minutes.

Finally, remove from heat and drizzle with pesto if desired.

Expert Tips & Tricks

Cut steak into equal sized cubes. This allows for even cooking.

In addition, slice veggies into equal sizes.

Allow steak to marinate for the full 30 minutes. This yields a more tender result.

Use a meat thermometer to measure internal temperature of steak. This prevents overcooking.

How Long to Cook

These Australian grass fed beef kabobs in the oven took 25 minutes to cook. They were medium. Depending on the size of you steak cubes and the strength of your oven, this may vary. Use a meat thermometer to test doneness of meat.

For medium rare, internal temperature should measure 135 degrees Fahrenheit.

Medium steak is approximately 140 degrees Fahrenheit internally.

For medium well, internal temperature should measure 145 to 150 degrees Fahrenheit.

Well done is over 150 degrees Fahrenheit.

Threading the Skewers

When threading the skewers, alternate between beef and veggies. I suggest threading a cube of steak, then threading 2 veggies then beef again. This allows the flavors of the veggies and beef to intermix.

Many recipes call for soaking the skewers before threading them to prevent burnt skewers. For these kabobs, the oven heat was cool enough to not burn the wooden skewers.

How to Serve & Store

Serve kabobs hot from the oven! Drizzle with pesto and serve immediately.

Store skewers in the fridge for up to 4 days. Either store the entire skewer in the fridge wrapped in foil, or remove beef and veggies from skewers and store in a Tupperware container.

I do not recommend freezing these skewers. The steak will not have the same texture when thawed from frozen.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I cook these steak kabobs in the oven?

Mine took 25 minutes and they were medium. Less cooking time will yield a more rare result, while more time will yield a more well done result.

Which cut of beef is the best?

Sirloin is a great option for these kabobs.

Can you put skewers in the oven?

Yes. My wooden skewers did not burn. If you are concerned about this, soak skewers in water before threading with beef and veggies.
