Glazed Kabobs - Menu item #7

Today's ingredient was a glaze.  We started with honey, added brown sugar and orange juice concentrate.  Then to spice things up a bit, we added A1 Steak sauce, chili powder, and red pepper flakes.  Heavy emphasis on the pepper flakes. POW!  These were whisked together until we had the just right combination of sticky, sweet, and Pop.  Then we had to increase the quantities because we didn't have enough.  Note to self....be sure there is enough to baste all your kabobs.

Since we were focusing on the glaze, the kabob ingredients were fairly simple and straightforward.  We used chicken, shrimp, mushrooms, red peppers, onion, zucchini, tomato, and pineapple.

Just for kicks and giggles (no wine was served for the giggles), we basted a few kabobs with a bottled grilling sauce.  It was unanimous, OURS ROCKED!  The flavor combination was so much better than what came out of the bottle.  Again, we'll be fighting over the leftovers.  Sorry TJ and Charles!  ;-)
