This is what happens when…
you want to serve steak but you don’t want to go serve big slabs of beef because everyone would probably just want to eat a little bit of everything else….
you just bought some nice iron skewers and you wonder what you could possibly put into them…
you want something beef-y on Christmas eve…
This is what happens when you ask your sister “What else could I make for our Noche Buena?”
And she says “I want steak..”
This is what happens when you transform your steak into finger food…
And when you put Christmas into your steak…ERR– Or your steak into Christmas…
Whatever! As long as there’s really good gravy to dip that steak into…

I’ve made beef skewers before, but never with a great gravy dipping sauce!! How delicious these must have been!! xx
The skewers are definitely a good substitute idea for big slabs of meat! Happy New Year to you and your family.
