Description

Delicious teriyaki beef skewers made with tender top sirloin steak marinated in a rich blend of brown sugar and soy sauce, perfect for summer barbecues.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs top sirloin steak (sliced thin, 1/4 inch thick)
  • ½ cup dark brown sugar
  • ⅓ cup soy sauce
  • 2 Tablespoons BBQ sauce
  • 2 Tablespoons white sesame seeds
  • 2 Tablespoons minced garlic
  • 1 Tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon white sugar

Instructions

  1. Take the top sirloin steak out of its packaging, and dry it thoroughly using paper towels.
  2. Remove any connective tissues or silver skin from the meat to ensure a tender bite.
  3. Slice the roast into 2 x 3 inch pieces against the grain, making each slice approximately 1 cm thick.
  4. Place the sliced beef in a large mixing bowl.
  5. In a separate medium mixing bowl, combine dark brown sugar, soy sauce, minced garlic, sesame oil, white sugar, white sesame seeds, and BBQ sauce. Whisk until well blended.
  6. Pour the marinade over the sliced beef and coat each piece thoroughly.
  7. Cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the beef to a zip-top plastic bag. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, up to 24 hours.
  8. Skewer about six slices of beef onto each skewer stick, leaving a 2-inch gap on one end for easy handling.
  9. Arrange the skewers on a tray lined with aluminum foil.
  10. If there is leftover marinade, transfer it to a saucepan and bring it to a boil, stirring until it reduces and thickens.
  11. Grill the skewers over medium-high heat for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until cooked through and caramelized.
  12. Serve immediately as an appetizer or main course.

Notes

For added flavor, consider adding fresh ginger to the marinade. Serve with reduced marinade as a dipping sauce.
