Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, mix the ground beef, 1/4 cup of the A-1 Steak Sauce, bread crumbs, and beaten egg until just combined.
  2. Shape the beef mixture into 24 small meatballs, approximately 1 inch in diameter.
  3. Drain the pineapple chunks, reserving the juice in a small bowl.
  4. Mix the remaining 1/2 cup of A-1 Steak Sauce with the reserved pineapple juice to create the glaze; set aside.
  5. Thread the meatballs, pineapple chunks, green pepper squares, cherry tomato halves, and mushroom halves alternately onto the 6 metal skewers.
  6. Preheat the grill or broiler. If broiling, position the rack 4 to 6 inches from the heat source.
  7. Grill or broil the kabobs for 10 to 15 minutes, turning frequently and brushing with the steak sauce mixture until the beef is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
  8. Serve the kabobs immediately over a bed of hot cooked rice.

Note

For wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before threading to prevent burning.

Ensure the beef meatballs are cooked to an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) for food safety.

You can substitute the A-1 Steak Sauce with a mixture of Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, and a splash of vinegar if needed.

Leftover kabobs can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a microwave or oven.
