time.
Making your kabobs:
*Thaw the shrimp, if frozen. Shell and devein shrimp.
*Precook vegetables, if necessary.
*Prepare sauces as directed. (Recipes below)
*Arrange shrimp, meat, poultry and vegetables on a platter or in
individual containers. Cover; chill till serving time.
*On skewers alternately thread any combination of meat and
vegetables. Place the full skewers on a kabob rack, if desired.
*Grill kabobs, on an uncovered grill, directly over HOT coals for 8
to 12 minutes or to desired doneness. Turn and brush often with the
desired sauce. (A note of caution: wait till at least the surface of the
meat is cooked before brushing with sauce - you don't want to add
raw meat cooties to your sauces. Or you might want to divide the
sauces into 2 containers and use 1 on the raw meat, the second
(uncontaminated) on the half-cooked kabobs.)
