# Expert Tips:
01 -
- The marinade works its magic in just an hour but rewards you with incredibly tender meat
- Everything cooks on skewers so cleanup is practically nonexistent
02 -
- Soak wooden skewers for at least 30 minutes or theyll burn before the meat is done
- Medium-rare to medium is perfect for these cuts, anything beyond that starts drying out
03 -
- Bring the meat to room temperature for 20 minutes before grilling for more even cooking
- Pat the beef dry before threading it to encourage better browning
