Beef Barbecue with Lemon-Pepper Oil

My dad would have loved these Beef Barbecue Skewers with Lemon-Pepper Oil I grilled for our family. The aroma from the citrusy-soy sauce glaze floated around the patio. To keep the beef tender and moist, I marinated it the night before. While grilling, I kept on brushing a glaze mixture with my new secret ingredient Boyajian Lemon-Pepper Oil along with soy sauce, garlic, ginger ale. It was a simple, yet magnificent char-grilled entrée. I’m making these for Father’s Day and I know it will be perfect. This is an AsianInAmericamag recipe. Serves 4.

To marinate the beef: In a medium-sized bowl combine the marinade ingredients - lemon-pepper oil, soy sauce,ketchup, minced garlic, sea salt, ginger ale. Pour over the beef slices and blend well. Keep the marinated beef in a resealable plastic bag and refrigerate at least 6 hours or overnight.
The next day, prepare to grill by soaking the bamboo skewers in water for at least 20 minutes.
To cook the beef barbecue: Skewer the barbecue slices, about 4 pieces per stick. Alternately, skewer pieces of red or green bell peppers.
Pre-heat the grill to a medium high.
Use the leftover marinade and add the brown sugar. Or if desired, prepare a separate glaze mixture to brush on the beef skewers while grilling. Mix together the lemon pepper oil, soy sauce, ketchup, ginger ale, brown sugar,salt. This should make at least 1 cup of marinade to brush on the beef.
Place the beef skewers in the center of the pre-heated grill. Brush the glaze every 15 to 20 minutes. Cook till well done for about 18 to 20 minutes.
Serve warm with rice.
Cook’s comments: The Boyajian Lemon Pepper Oil was part of complementary mini boxed sets given to me. Boyajian Oils are used by home cooks and professional chefs for cooking and baking. They are all natural citrus oils, flavorings and extracts. This ingredient added a new dimension to the flavors of my cooking.
Disclosure: I was not compensated to mention this brand. But I gladly recommend it as an ingredient if you like to add citrus oils which are natural essences. The flavors are intense and only a quarter to half a teaspoon are needed for each recipe. Boyajian products are available online or at retail stores.
