PREPARING THE FULLBLOOD WAGYU BEEF SKEWERS
Mix all of the marinade ingredients (sugar, soy sauce, sake, grated ginger, crushed garlic, sesame seeds, canola oil, and chopped green onions) in a Ziploc-style bag.
Put the Fullblood Wagyu beef for kabobs in the bag with the marinade.
Place the bag in the fridge, and let the meat marinate for 2-3 hours (marinating more than this will result in salty, tough beef).
Skewer the marinated Fullblood Wagyu beef pieces on your bamboo skewers (that you’ve pre-soaked in water). Make sure to leave almost no space at the pointed end, and leave only a little space at the dull end of the skewer.
FINAL STEPS
Using your charcoal grill, place the kabobs on a medium-heat spot.
Cook until done to your desired internal temperature. (Chef recommends cooking for 2-3 minutes per side, top and bottom.)
You’ll find that these cook quicker than steaks or chops, so be mindful of this. Overcooking or burning the beef will result in a tough end product.
Place the Japanese style “kushiyaki” Fullblood Wagyu beef skewers on a plate.
Serve warm, and enjoy!
