Picked up some top sirloin steaks last night with the intention of cooking them as is. Got home and thought about my kabob idea I had never tried and how my newly acquired Weber Charcoal Baskets might help. That was all the thought necessary so I cubed the steaks and did up 4 marinades to try out....a chimichuri, a sriracha powder/grape seed oil blend, a smoked paprika blend and a soya sauce.

Served with some focaccia and sriracha aioli:

I ran out of room on the skewers I had so this afternoon was leftovers....the meat very much liked being in the marinade overnight:

Done...due to the longer marinading time this batch was much better than last nights:

Great idea - that sounds like a winning combo. Maybe add a touch of cumin?
I really like your use of the charcoal baskets as holders. Looks like it worked perfectly.

Great idea would have never thought of that! Good looking food!
Great idea. Looks delicious. Gotta try that. I need to get some firebricks. It looks like they come in handy when you want to get creative.

I use firebricks all the time. Eventually they crack but the pieces are often more useful that the full bricks.
Look here - $4.99 each - seems pricey but this is about the same as in the States:

Grate idea!
Thanks 1buckie :)
I like MrHoss' idea. Here is another idea if you're cooking for a large crowd
Place a small metal plate or small cast iron pan in the center of the kettle and line up the skewers in a circular fashion, like this

No kiddin'......this is really extra !!!!
I personally think a Weber gives people a leg up for "firsts" though.....I've seen quite a few astounding first pork butts for instance......
Kettles can do all kinds of things & the extra added ingenuity of people's setups & thinking who are drawn to them just really puts things over the top !!!!!
