Cajun Butter Potato Beef Kebabs
These Cajun butter potato beef kebabs layer thin potato slices with seasoned ground beef on skewers, grilled low at 300°F and finished with a Cajun butter baste.
Ingredients
- 4 medium russet potatoes, sliced as thin as possible (1/8-1/4 inch)
- 1 lb 85/15 ground beef
- 1 small onion, finely diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp chopped parsley
- 1 tbsp tomato paste
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp Mexican oregano
- 3/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 jalapeño, finely diced (optional)
- 1/2 stick unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp Cajun seasoning
Method
- Prep & Assemble
-
Slice 4 medium potatoes as thin as possible (about 1/8-1/4 inch thick). Thin slices are important so the potatoes cook completely.
-
Combine the 85/15 ground beef with the onion, garlic, parsley, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, and seasonings.
-
Place a thin layer of seasoned ground beef between two potato slices, creating potato-and-beef stacks. Thread the stacks onto skewers, keeping them secure.
- Grill & Baste
-
Grill at 300°F, rotating occasionally, until the beef reaches 160°F internal temperature and the potatoes are tender.
-
Melt the butter and mix with the Cajun seasoning. Baste the skewers with the Cajun butter right before removing them from the grill.
-
Serve with your favorite dipping sauce, chimichurri, or a spicy aioli.
