This fantastic video gives us all the tips we need to make some incredible steak kabobs on the backyard grill for Labor Day. (Soak wooden skewers beforehand!)

The video suggests Top Sirloin, but you can use the cuts you like best. And play with the vegetable combinations you crave to round out the beefy taste.

Check it out, experiment a little and have a very tasty Labor Day weekend!

We couldn’t help but bask in the gorgeous weather this weekend.

And here’s what goes along with that . . .

Kabobs, kabobs and more kabobs.

We grilled up seasoned beef kabobs and sprinkled in a few chicken and even salmon kabobs for good measure.

The backyard was filled with the enchanting aroma of sizzling meat and vegetables while the kids swam and goofed off.

An absolutely perfect summer day.

It’s times like this when you wonder if life can get any better. The trick is to not think too much further beyond the moment. It was exquisite.

I hope you are having as much fun with summer as we are!

Can you believe Memorial Day is almost upon us? It’s one of the Holy Grails of grilling holidays.

Are you ready?

Well, there’s a sale on what I believe are the best meats around. Steaks, steaks for sandwiches, steaks for making fajitas, steak meat for skewers, steakburgers – you name it!

Check it out here and get ordering for Memorial Day. It’ll be here before we know it!

I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait. I could use at least a day to focus on grilling, relaxing and enjoying my family. There’s always too much blowing and going.

I’m ready for some laying around. How ’bout you?

I just don’t want to forget the most important part – the food!!!
