Not only is the Fervor Roasting Rack stylish, but because of the flat skewers, your food doesn’t turn on them when they’re flipped. Not only that, the grooves in the rack allow for stability seldom seen when making kebabs or brochettes.

Method:

  • Begin by whisking all the ingredients for the marinade together in a bowl.
  • Add in the beef, cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, preferably overnight.

Using protective gloves, turn the skewers when one side has cooked through. Try not to turn the brochettes too often as this may dry out the meat and could cause the vegetables to break free from the skewer.
