Java Skewers
Java Skewers

One of the staples of any pupu platter are the hibachi skewers of beef and chicken. Â The simplest things with the simplest ingredients can come together in the simplest of settings. Â Such is this Asian BBQ made at home. Â You can use beef or chicken for this, or both. Â Just be sure to marinate each meat separately to avoid cross-contamination. Â Be sure to marinate for at least an hour, up to 2-3 hours. I have never done it past 2 hours, and while many claim 3 hours is fine, the meat(s) might start to break down.
