- One to two hours before you are ready to grill, place the poultry or meat in a shallow nonreactive container.
- Pour the speidie sauce over the top.
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 2 hours, turning occasionally.

- Thread the poultry or meat cubes (and vegetables, if using) onto skewers, (alternating poultry or meat with the vegetables, if using, and beginning and ending with poultry or meat.)
- If using wooden skewers, you might want to wrap the tips in aluminum foil to keep them from burning.
- Place the kabobs on the grill and grill, turning frequently, for about 8 minutes, or until the meat is cooked to the desired degree of doneness (and the vegetables are crisp-tender.)
- Serve hot off the grill, with toasted pita bread, if desired.
