Kabob Trick – Double It Up

Double Stuck

Double Stuck

Ever try flipping a shrimp on a skewer? Often times it will become a game of spin the prawn. Small, short, and round ingredients often are tough to control on a tiny stick. In fact, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a perfectly toasted marshmallow!

BBQ Tricks has a better way:

  • First, soak twice the usual amount of bamboo or wood skewers in water (this soak will get them nice and waterlogged and keep them from burning on the grill).
  • Next, simply double thread the ingredients with a PAIR of skewers.

The extra stick makes for easy flipping and doubles the odds your perfectly grilled morsels avoiding a drop through the grates!
