Are flat or round skewers better?
Flat or square skewers are better for most kebabs. They keep the meat in place, making it easier to rotate them on the grill without the meat sliding around.
What are flat skewers used for?
Flat skewers are perfect for grilling kebabs, baked potatoes, and various meats. Their design ensures even cooking and makes handling food on the BBQ much easier.
Is it better to use metal or wooden skewers?
Wooden skewers are suitable for occasional use or if you want quick cleanup. However, for serious grilling, stainless steel skewers are a better investment. They’re reusable, durable, and perfect for frequent cooking.
Which cut of chicken is best for skewers?
Chicken thighs are ideal for skewers as they stay juicy and tender. Chicken breast is also a good option but can dry out faster. Cook chicken skewers for 8–10 minutes or until fully cooked.
How do you avoid overcooking chicken skewers?
Use a meat thermometer, such as the Inkbird instant-read thermometers we sell, to monitor doneness. Remove the skewers from the grill when the chicken is 74-75°C
