Steps:
- Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
- Cut the steak and lobster tail meat into 1-inch chunks. Alternating between steak and lobster, skewer the meat onto four 12-inch skewers (about 4 pieces of steak and 3 pieces of lobster on each skewer); set aside.
- To make the spice rub, mix together the salt, smoked paprika, sweet paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne, black pepper and thyme in a small bowl.
- Drizzle or brush the skewers with the olive oil. Lightly sprinkle the skewers with the spice rub.
- Grill the skewers, brushing them with the melted butter and turning about every minute, until the lobster is cooked through and the steak is rare, 4 to 5 minutes total. Allow to rest for 5 to 7 minutes before enjoying.
SURF AND TURF SKEWERS WITH BOURBON TERIYAKI SAUCE
Steps:
- Preheat a gas grill to high heat.
- For the bourbon teriyaki sauce: Add the soy sauce, bourbon, mirin, sugar, honey, ginger, sesame oil, mustard, sriracha, garlic and lime juice to a medium bowl and whisk to combine. Reserve 1/4 cup of the sauce to drizzle on the finished skewers.
- For the skewers: Skewer alternating pieces of shrimp and steak on each skewer until you have 4 pieces of each per skewer. Put the skewers on a baking sheet or in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Lightly season with salt and season generously with pepper. Brush the skewers with some of the remaining bourbon teriyaki sauce.
- Brush the grill grates with canola oil. Grill the orange wedges until grill-marked and slightly charred, 2 to 3 minutes per side; set aside. Grill the shrimp and steak skewers for about 2 minutes. Flip and brush with more of the remaining bourbon teriyaki sauce and grill another 2 minutes. Turn the heat to medium low and grill the skewers an additional 1 to 2 minutes per side, basting with more sauce.
- Transfer the skewers to a platter and garnish with the oranges, scallions and sesame seeds. Drizzle with the reserved bourbon teriyaki sauce.
SURF AND TURF KEBABS
Kebabs are a family favorite--offering a little bit of everything for everyone--and these are no exception. Plump shrimp, cubes of sirloin and wheels of corn are grilled together before being brushed with a sweet and sour peach sauce. And since they're grilled indoors, you can enjoy them any time of the year.

Steps:
- Heat the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat until melted and foamy. Add the shallots and cook, stirring frequently, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the sugar and peaches and cook, stirring, until the sugar is melted and the peaches are starting to soften, about 3 minutes.
- Stir in the peach preserves, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, red pepper flakes, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook until the peaches are completely softened and the mixture is thickened to the consistency of loose jam, 10 to 15 minutes depending on the juiciness of the peaches. Discard the thyme sprigs. If the peaches have not completely broken down, mash them with a potato masher to help them along. Keep warm over low heat.
- Meanwhile, heat a large grill pan over high heat.
- Thread one piece of corn onto a 15-inch metal skewer, followed by a piece of sirloin and then a piece of shrimp; repeat in that order until you have 4 of each item on the skewer. Repeat with the remaining corn, sirloin and shrimp on 3 additional 15-inch metal skewers. Brush the kebabs with olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt and black pepper.
- Cook the kebabs, turning a few times, until charred all over and the steak and shrimp are cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer the kebabs to a platter and brush generously with the peach sauce. Serve with rice, salad and extra peach sauce on the side.
SURF & TURF KABOBS
This is another recipe from Jacqueline Bellefontaine's What's Cooking Barbecue with a few alterations from me. I love it because the marinade time is short. You really don't need any more time than stated. It is thick and sticks to the meats beautifully. You will think that there is not enough to marinade the amount of meat, but I thought it was perfect. (Not enough to have extra for rice) The flavors went so well together. Prep time does not include the marinate. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

Steps:

Steps:
- Combine first 7 ingredients in processor and blend until almost smooth. Spread 1 heaping teaspoon seasoned butter over each side of each steak and over each lobster half. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour. Transfer remaining seasoned butter to small saucepan.
- Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Set pan with butter at edge of barbecue until butter is melted and warmed through. Grill steaks until cooked to desired doneness, about 4 minutes per side. Grill lobster, shell side down, 5 minutes. Turn over and grill until meat is just opaque in center, about 3 minutes. Transfer steaks and lobster to plates. Serve with warm seasoned butter.
Tips:
- Choose high-quality ingredients: Use fresh, high-quality seafood and steak for the best flavor.
- Marinate the seafood and steak: Marinating the seafood and steak helps to tenderize them and infuse them with flavor. You can use a simple marinade made with olive oil, lemon juice, herbs, and spices, or you can get creative and try a more complex marinade.
- Cook the seafood and steak to perfection: Seafood and steak are both delicate proteins that can easily be overcooked. Cook them over medium-high heat until they are just cooked through. The seafood should be opaque and the steak should be cooked to your desired doneness.
- Assemble the kabobs: Once the seafood and steak are cooked, assemble the kabobs. You can use wooden skewers or metal skewers. Alternate the seafood, steak, and vegetables on the skewers.
- Grill the kabobs: Grill the kabobs over medium-high heat until the seafood and steak are heated through and the vegetables are tender. You can also grill the kabobs in a grill pan on the stovetop.
- Serve the kabobs: Serve the kabobs with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular dipping sauces for grilled surf and turf kabobs include tartar sauce, cocktail sauce, and lemon butter sauce.
Conclusion:
Grilled surf and turf kabobs are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a summer cookout. They are also a great way to get your kids to eat their seafood and vegetables. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make grilled surf and turf kabobs at home. So fire up the grill and give this recipe a try!
