Ingredients

  • 2 pounds beef, cut into cubes or ground beef for hamburger
  • 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 cup barbecue sauce
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional for extra spice)

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, combine Worcestershire sauce, barbecue sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, black pepper, salt, and cayenne pepper (if using). Mix well to create the marinade.
  2. If making beef cubes, add the beef cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. If making hamburger patties, mix the marinade with the ground beef in a separate bowl until well combined.
  3. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and the meat to marinate.
  4. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  5. If making beef cubes, thread the marinated beef onto skewers. If making hamburger patties, shape the ground beef into patties.
  6. Place the skewers or patties on the preheated grill and cook for about 4-6 minutes per side, or until the beef reaches your desired level of doneness.
  7. While grilling, baste the beef with the remaining marinade to enhance the flavor and keep it moist.
  8. Once cooked, remove the beef from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes.
  9. Serve the barbecued beef cubes or hamburger patties hot with your favorite barbecue sides such as coleslaw, baked beans, or corn on the cob.
