When I was a teenager, my father worked for an airline, and my family lived on the island of Guam in the South Pacific. A friend of my mother gave her this tangy-sweet recipe, and we enjoyed it often. Now I make it for my family, and they're big fans as well. —Suzanne Pelegrin, Ocala, Florida

Ingredients

1 cup sugar
1 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 cup ketchup
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 pounds beef top sirloin steak, cut into 1-1/2-inch cubes
2 to 3 small zucchini, cut into 1-inch slices
1/2 pound medium fresh mushrooms
1 large green or sweet red pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 small onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 cups cubed fresh pineapple

Directions

For marinade, mix first five ingredients. Place beef and half of the marinade in a large resealable plastic bag; seal bag and turn to coat. Cover and reserve remaining marinade. Refrigerate beef and marinade overnight.
On metal or soaked wooden skewers, thread vegetables and, on separate skewers, thread beef with pineapple. Discard remaining marinade in bag. Grill, covered, over medium heat until vegetables are tender and beef reaches desired doneness, 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally.
In a small saucepan, bring reserved marinade to a boil, stirring occasionally; cook 1 minute. Remove vegetables, pineapple and beef from skewers before serving. Serve with sauce.

Love the ease and flavor! Kabobs are so great because you can change the veggies, using what you have on hand. Made these just as the recipe stated and will make them again!

These were delicious! So flavorful! The sauce made from the marinade was easy and tasty. I made these for guests and they gobbled them up.

Haven't tried this yet, but it looks really good. What are the specific Guam seasonings in this? It seemed important to the recipe in the description.

Very good! I took away a star only because the ketchup flavor what quite strong in the sauce, more than I'd like. However, it was still a good dish and I'd still make it again!
