Make Beef Satay Marinade

  • To a bowl combine the ingredients in the specified quantities. Mix well and ensure the sugar is well incorporated.
    1/2 tbsp grated ginger, 3 cloves crushed garlic, 1 tbsp minced white onion, 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, 2 tbsp oyster sauce, 3 tbsp low sodium soy sauce, 1 tbsp vegetable oil, 1 tbsp ground coriander, 1/2 tsp baking soda, 1/2 tsp cumin, 1/4 tsp turmeric, 1/4 tsp white pepper, 1 whole lemon, zest, 1/2 whole lemon, juiced
  • Take your sliced beef and marinade and add to a ziplock bag.
  • Massage marinade into meat and then marinate for at least 4-6 hours.
  • While the pork marinates, soak bamboo skewers in water.

Skewer the Beef

  • After 4-6 hours, weave the meat onto the skewers.
  • Don't tightly stack the meat, leave it somewhat loose on the skewer.

Get Your Grill to 400F

  • I'm using a charcoal grill with an elevated cooking grate.
  • Once at temperature, take your skewers and place on the grill.
  • What you're looking for is the meat to brown, not burn.
  • I like to grill on one side for 1 minute and then flip, repeating this process until they're done to my liking. This takes roughly 9-10 minutes to finish.
  • Once done, take off the grill and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

If you can't find round tip, use sirloin steak or flank steak.
Peanut sauces are quite popular with this dish for dipping.
