Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 tablespoon rum
• 1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 teaspoons grated orange zest
• 1 large red onion, cut into wedges
• 1 pound top sirloin, cut into 1-inch cubes
• 2 large red bell peppers, cut into 2 inch pieces
• 1 large navel orange, peeled, sectioned
• 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 2

Place sirloin cubes, yogurt, orange zest, ginger, and cayenne pepper into a large freezer bag. Massage the bag to mix and coat beef well. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Step 3

Remove beef from the freezer bag; shake off as much marinade as possible. Thread onion, red bell peppers, and marinated beef cubes onto skewers; brush with olive oil.

Step 4

Place pineapple and orange in the center of a large piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Dot with butter, sprinkle with brown sugar, and drizzle with rum. Bring together the long sides of the foil and seal well; fold up and seal each end.

Step 5

Place fruit packets on the preheated grill and cook, covered, for 10 minutes.

Step 6

Place kabobs on the preheated grill with fruit packets. Cook, turning occasionally, until meat is done to your liking and fruit is soft and glazed, about 10 minutes.
