Ingredients

1lb boneless beef short ribs

2 tablespoon unsweetened coco powder

1 teaspoon ground ginger

1 tablespoon ground Allspice

¼ teaspoon Nutmeg

¼ teaspoon Cinnamon

¼ teaspoon Salt

¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

2 tablespoon Soy sauce

1 tablespoon Grape seed oil

1 tablespoon Honey

For the kebabs

1 large Onion

6 skewers

Instructions

Preheat your grill to medium high heat; preheat the oven to 375 degrees
If using wooden skewers soak them for 20 minutes in water
Cut the short ribs into even sized cubes and place in a dish
Add all the ingredients to the ribs and mix thoroughly
Set aside for marinate for at least 30 minutes.
Chop the onions into large cubes
Place skewer the onion and meat onto the stick starting with an onion and ending with meat
After you have placed two pieces of each on all the sticks grill them for 2 minutes per side
Rotate on the grill until all sides begin to brown and caramelize
Place the kebabs in an oven safe dish and cover with foil
Bake in the oven for 35 minutes
Baste the kebabs with the juices at the bottom of the dish and place back in the oven for another 35 minutes
Kebabs are ready when the juices have thickened and the meat is tender (usually 1 hour 20 minutes or less)
Serve as is, no sauce needed. However check greedy tips for a sauce idea

Greedy tips:

For a sweet dipping sauce combine the pan drippings with maple syrup and scallion pieces and pour over the kebabs.
When the kebabs are fork tender then they are ready, the onions will be very sweet and caramelized and the meat will fall of the stick easily.
