What kind of steak should I use for this recipe?

You can use any tender cut of steak, such as ribeye, sirloin steak, or filet mignon. Just be sure to cut the steak into small, bite-sized pieces so they cook evenly.

Can I make this recipe ahead of time?

Yes, you can marinate the steak in the garlic butter sauce beforehand, then skewer and grill them when you're ready to serve. Just be sure to store the marinated steak in an airtight container in the refrigerator until you're ready to use it.

How long do I need to grill the steak bites on skewers?

It can only take 2-3 minutes per side to grill the skewers, but the exact time will depend on the thickness of the steak and how hot your grill is. I cooked the skewers for about 5-7 minutes on each side. You'll know they're done when they're browned on the outside and cooked to your desired doneness on the inside.

What can I serve with garlic butter steak bites on skewers?

Garlic butter steak bites on skewers are delicious, but you can also serve them with dipping sauces, such as chimichurri, blue cheese aioli, or even ketchup for the kids. They also pair well with grilled vegetables or a side salad.

Instructions

Begin by soaking your skewers in water for at least 1 hour. This will prevent the skewers from burning too quickly on the grill.
Fill a large pot with salted water and bring to a slight boil. Add the potatoes whole or cut them in half. Cook only until fork tender but still firm (you should be able to insert the tip of a fork into the potato without it splitting). Drain and rinse in cool water. Set aside.
Cut the ribeye into squared chunks. Season with kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder, and add two tablespoons of the melted butter. Use your hands to toss and coat the seasoning and the melted butter to the steak.
Separately, sprinkle the potatoes in the melted butter with a little salt and pepper.
Begin to assemble the skewers to have a potato on the bottom, a steak chunk, a garlic clove, a steak chunk, and end with a potato. You can add more steak if you want. It depends on how much food you prefer to have on your skewers.
Once your skewers are complete, heat your grill according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Spray your grill racks with non-stick spray or cover them with aluminum foil. Add the skewers to the grill and cook with the lid closed for 5-7 minutes on each side.
Once cooked to your liking, remove from heat and immediately add the garlic butter to the skewers while they are still hot. Either place dollops of the garlic butter on the skewers or melt the butter and brush the skewers once cooked (recommended). Serve immediately.
