The best things about summer. Summer Fridays, outdoor movies, concerts in the park, dog beaches and of course, all the kabobs. Put anything on a skewer, throw it on a grill, serve with a cold beer, and I call that the most fantastic summer day ever.

And Korean beef on a stick never tasted so much better.

Ingredients:

2 pounds thick-cut New York strip steak
1/2 small pear, peeled and coarsely grated
1/4 cup reduced sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
1 tablespoon gochujang (Korean red pepper paste)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 green onions, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds

Directions:

Wrap steak in plastic wrap, and place in the freezer for 30 minutes. Unwrap and slice across the grain into 1/4-inch thick slices.
In a medium bowl, combine pear, soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger and gochujang. In a gallon size Ziploc bag, combine soy sauce mixture and steak; marinate for at least 2 hours to overnight, turning the bag occasionally. Drain the steak from the marinade.
Thread 2-3 slices steak onto skewers. Brush with vegetable oil; season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Preheat grill to medium heat.
Add skewers to grill, and cook, turning occasionally, until charred and cooked through, about 4-5 minutes.
Serve immediately, garnished with green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
