Now's the time to start watching the grocery ads for whole sirloin tip roasts. They usually weigh about 10 pounds, so the cost of making the beef sticks is minimized considerably if you can find a deal on the sirloin. These make great gifts, when presented with a small jar of homemade mustard and a pack of hamemade crackers! Buy the roast, have the butcher trim all the fat and grind into hamburger. Package the meat and freeze until holiday season, if you wish. The liquid smoke is optional, but if you use it, go easy - a little is a lot, with this ingredient. Makes 10 beef sticks

Categories     Meat Appetizers

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 Tbsp beef bouillon granules
2 Tbsp water
3 clove garlic (minced)
2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
1 1/2 lb beef sirloin, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
10 wooden skewers, soaked in water for 1 hour
2 Tbsp vegetable oil

Steps:

  • 1. Dissolve bouillon in water. Stir in the garlic, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Toss the meat in the marinade, cover, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
  • 2. Preheat a grill for high heat.
  • 3. Skewer the beef cubes, using 6 to 8 pieces per skewer. Pour the oil onto a plate, and roll the skewers in it to coat them on all sides.
  • 4. Grill the skewers, turning frequently, until the beef has turned light pink, 12 to 15 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Use a lean cut of beef, such as flank steak or sirloin tip, for best results.
  • Slice the beef thinly: This will help the beef sticks cook evenly and quickly.
  • Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef in a mixture of soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger will help add flavor and moisture.
  • Use a dehydrator: A dehydrator is the best way to make beef sticks, as it will remove the moisture from the beef slowly and evenly.
  • Store the beef sticks properly: Store the beef sticks in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, or in the freezer for up to 6 months.

Conclusion:

Making beef sticks at home is a great way to enjoy a delicious and healthy snack. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make beef sticks that are just as good as, if not better than, the store-bought kind. So next time you're looking for a portable and protein-packed snack, give these beef sticks a try!
