Kebabs:
- 1.5 lbs Ground Beef
- ½ cup Grated Onion
- ¼ cup Chopped Parsley
- 2 tbsp Cowboy Butter Rub
- 2 tbsp Minced Garlic
- 1 Jalapeno diced
- 1 Fresh Egg
Platter:
- 3 cups Frozen Waffle Fries
- 1 White Onion Sliced
- 1 cup Cherry Tomatoes
- 10-12 Chile Peppers
Sauce:
- 1 cup Melted Butter
- 1.5 tbsp Hot Sauce
In a bowl, mix together the ingredients for the kebabs.
Place a small handful of kebab meat on top of the middle of a plastic bag. Top with a wooden skewer then fold the plastic bag over and gently push the meat into a long shape so it fills out the skewer. Repeat until all skewers are done.
Add your fries to a large skillet along with the kebabs, tomatoes, slice onion and chile peppers. Pour your butter sauce over the top to finish.
Preheat your smoker to 350F with Cowboy Charcoal.
Add the entire skillet to the smoker to cook for 20-25 minutes until the kebabs are done and the potatoes are done. Pull off once done to cool.
Garnish with chopped parsley and enjoy!
Homemade Fries
If you want to make your own fries, here's a super simple oven method. Wash 2-3 large Russet potatoes and cut them into your fry shape. Then, soak the potatoes in cold water for about 30 minutes to remove excess starch. This step is key for crispy fries!
When you're ready to cook, drain the fries, pat them dry with paper towels and toss them with oil, salt and some Cowboy Butter Seasoning to match flavor of the beef kebabs. Spread on a single layer on a baking sheet and bake at 425 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes, flipping halfway through. Serve your golden crispy fries with these beef kebabs, chicken skewers and more!
This method is for regular fries. But, if you have a mandoline with a crinkle cutter blade, you can do the waffle fries easily! If you want to make these in your air fryer, cook at 400 degrees F for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket every 5 minutes.You could also fry these in vegetable oil in a Dutch oven on the grill while you're making the beef kebabs. Frying will take about 7-8 minutes total (see this recipe for peppercorn herb steak with fries for reference).
