A big grilling holiday is this weekend, so I’m recommending this recipe for Steak Kabobs with Mushrooms as my Friday Favorites pick for this week. Meat-eaters love a juicy steak on the grill, and who doesn’t love grilled mushrooms, and this is a recipe that combines steak and mushrooms into easy kabobs that are delicious and quick.
And steak is a budget splurge for most people, but cooking it on grilled kabobs with other ingredients makes it a bit more affordable.
You start with pieces of tender steak, marinate the pieces for one hour in a flavorful mixture, add the mushrooms to marinate for another hour, and then make kabobs with steak and mushrooms, grill and enjoy!

Ingredients
Ingredients:
- 20 oz. beef steak (see notes)
- 8 oz mushrooms, washed and air-dried (see notes)
Marinade Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup white wine vinegar (see notes)
- 1 T Worcestershire sauce (see notes)
- 1 tsp. garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp. Vege-Sal or salt
- fresh ground black pepper to taste (I like a lot of pepper in this.)
Instructions
- Trim the meat well and cut steak into pieces about 1 1/2 inches square.
- Whisk together the olive oil, white wine vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and lots of fresh ground black pepper to make the marinade.
- Put steak pieces into large ziploc bag, pour in the marinade mixture, and marinate in refrigerator 1 hour.
- While the steak marinates, wash mushrooms and let them air-dry in the colander.
- After an hour add mushrooms to marinating steak and marinate one hour more.
- When you’re ready to cook, spray or brush grill with oil or non-stick grilling spray and preheat grill to high.
- Thread steak and mushrooms on skewers, preferably Double Kabob Skewers (affiliate link) or thicker blade type skewers. I used the thick blade type skewers I got in Turkey!
- Grill steak to desired temperature; about 3-4 minutes per side for medium rare. Add 1 more minute per side for medium or 2 more minutes per side for medium-well.
- If you like your meat quite rare you might want to make kabobs with just the meat and cook the mushrooms in a Vegetable Basket for the Grill (affiliate link).
- Let meat rest a minute or two before you take it off the skewers.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
Use a cut of beef such as Top Sirloin, New York Steak, Tri-Tip Steak, or Petite Sirloin for this recipe.
I used white wine vinegar (affiliate link) but white balsamic vinegar would also work.
I used Worcestershire sauce (affiliate link) but omit for Paleo or use gluten-free Worcestershire sauce (affiliate link) if needed.
I used brown Baby Bella mushrooms but white mushrooms are also fine.
