Wow! These have a wonderful flavor. I marinated mine for about 4 hours. They weren't very tender but I believe that was due to my cut of beef. I grilled mine on the barbecue and served it with a tasty coleslaw. Thanks for posting.

    Delicious!!!! I cheated and didn't bother cutting mine into pieces and skewering. I used ribeyes and marinated them for about two hours and then grilled. I did brush on some of the marinade in very beginning of grilling. Made for zaar stars tag. Thanks Pneuma for posting.

    Oh yum-MERS! This Shishlik recipe is right on and oh so tasty. I followed this exactly, except since I used beef cubes (already cut) I placed this in the marinade on Friday, turning them in the Ziploc bag every couple of hours. The taste that infused into the meat was outstanding. I used fresh thyme and fresh parsley which really gave the meat a even more. packed full of "WOW" factor. I preheated our grill to "screaming hot" oiled the grates and put these succulent pieces of meat right on top and basted them every couple of minutes. This was really really nice, added some fresh grilled tomatoes to some rice pilaf and ate away. Perfect, will use this as my "go" to recipe for Shishlik. Thank you so much Pneuma

    I chose to surprise my DH by making this dish for him. He loved this dish. I chose to cook them in our grill pan which I think worked. Thanks for posting this recipe for us to try.
