Spicy Wolf Kabobs, by Tweaks

Here is a recipe submission from Tweaks. Check out her blog "What's for Dinner?" for more recipes including: Pumpkin Spice Bars, and Chicken Curry Casserole.

Now back to the Spicy Wolf Kabobs...Talk about yummy! If you're having a carnivorous craving, be sure to try these kabobs.



Skipping the meat? Substitute yours with eggplant, tomatoes, and mushrooms.

Tweaks writes, "Last week I made some shish kabobs; they were really fun and easy to make. The prep took a while, but it can be done the night before."

**Note on Marinades** Most grocers carry pre-made marinades that are delicious. Often these are found the ethnically themed aisles, but I have also seen some near the premixed spice-pouches.

My favorite of the marinades atm, is MINS Korea House Bul Go Gi marinade. It is produced by a local restaurant and is sold at the local grocery store (you never know what you'll find!).

You can easily make your own rub for your kabobs, or try a spice-pouch. Mmm...taco kabobs!



Easy, Fun, Fast.


The prep time can be consuming if you're cutting things by hand. Try using the Vidalia Chop Wizard.

TBH, I want to try the "Slap Chop," it looks a little ridiculous--but I am down for smacking things as I cook!



Particularly if there were a guy looking that smug in my kitchen...After all, he does note that "You can slap your troubles away." I think I could muster a slap or two...for the device. <----Yeah right!

P.S. YTMND fans have fun with the linked video. "You're gonna love my nuts!"

What you need to make Tweak's Kabob's:

Skewer sticks, Meat, Peppers, Onion, Pineapple, Marinades.

Step 1. Soak skewers before use.

Step 2. Cut food in square shapes.

Step 3. Stick your foods onto the skewer and grill for about 10 minutes.



P.S. Please don't poke your gf with the sticks. She does not like that much. TY.

Sanguinar's Devilsaur BBQ Sauce

Looking for a BBQ Sauce with a bite? Look no further! Sanguinar's recipe is one to satisfy your craving for spicy.

Try this on meats, or as a dipping sauce for french fries.

What you need:
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 cup minced onion
1/2 cup minced green pepper
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
Pinch each of kosher salt and black pepper
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 can (28 ounces) tomato sauce
2 cups ketchup (preferably Heinz)
1 cup water
3/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup molasses
1/4 cup cayenne pepper sauce
1/4 cup spicy brown mustard
3/4 cup dark brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 teaspoons coarsely ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice

1. Pour the oil into a large saucepan and set over medium-high heat. Toss in the onions, green peppers, and jalapenos and give them a stir.

**Note** To make this extra hot, you can add 2 or 3 seeded and minced Habanero peppers. Mmmm spicy! If you do, PLEASE be careful. Habanero peppers can cause a lot of pain and suffering. As a precaution, I would recommend wearing latex gloves as thoroughly washing hands when you're finished doesn't always get it all off.

Step 2. Season with a pinch of sa1t and pepper and cook til soft and golden. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Dump in everything else.

Step 3. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat so the sauce simmers. Simmer for 10 minutes.

Step 4. Let it cool for a bit.

step 5. Pour it into a container, cover, and store in the fridge until ready to use.


ENJOY!

WTF BBQ SAUCE!

This one is a Goodlee family passer-downer recipe. I've been making this since I was 9! =) It is great for Ribs, chicken, Or beef (cubes is what I use it on).

It goes with pretty much any side food. Think noodles, instant rice, french fries, whatever! If you're making a lot of meats, or want more to save for later, double this recipe.


Use this as a dip or as a cooking sauce.

Mats:
1/2 cup Ketchup
1/4 cup Vinegar (I use apple cider.)
Worcestershire sauce (3-6 small shakes).
1/2 cup Brown sugar
Honey
Salt and pepper
You could add a pinch of onion powder too if you like.

Step 1. You're going to want to grab yourself a large bowl. The ones men eat cereal out of when there aren't any dishes left works.

Step 2. Start off by adding about the ketchup in the bowl. Add in the vinegar. Add the Worcestershire - like three small shakes. Just really an eyeball amount. Not a lot.
Mix.

Step 3. Add the brown sugar. Throw in a few squirts of honey. Then add a dash of salt and a pinch of pepper.

Step 4. Mix everything together. You can taste it from there. If you find that its too sweet you can add a little more vinegar. If you think its too sour you could add a
little more brown sugar. If its too bland add some more ketchup. You can very easily adjust this recipe to your own liking.

Once you get it to the way you want it. take whatever meat your cooking it in and pour the sauce over it. Cover everything evenly.

Step 5. Bake at 300 for about 40-45 minutes. (If you're using it on chicken pieces, I would bake it about 35-40 minutes.)

Once your meats are cooked, you're good to go. You've got yourself some homemade Ribs, chicken, or beef. =)
