Marinating for Flavor
Marinating the meat before grilling enhances the flavor and tenderness. Experiment with different marinades based on your preferred taste.
Proper Skewering
Ensure the meat pieces are evenly spaced on the skewer and not packed too tightly to allow for even cooking.
Grilling Technique
Grill the espetinhos over medium heat, turning them frequently to ensure they cook evenly and don't burn. Avoid flare-ups by keeping a water sprayer nearby to dampen the coals.
Serving Suggestions
Serve espetinhos with accompaniments like farofa (toasted cassava flour), chimichurri sauce, vinaigrette, or a side of rice and beans.
