A table full of small bites works best with small skewers, and that is what these 18 cm bamboo skewers are meant for. The short length is just enough for three or four pieces of meat, a few mushrooms or a row of prawns, without everyone getting half a meal on one stick.
Use around the fire
Thread the pieces tightly against each other, that cooks more evenly and stops everything from spinning loose. Under high, direct heat over the coals, small skewers cook fast, so stay nearby and turn them regularly. If you work with a deflector on the kamado bbq, things go more gently and you have more time to glaze with a marinade or sauce.
- Length 18 cm, suitable for small portions and appetizers
- Bamboo: light yet sturdy enough for a full skewer
- Soaking in water keeps the ends from burning
- For single use, spent after one session
Before you start
Put the skewers in a bowl of water half an hour beforehand. Wet bamboo burns much more slowly, so the ends stay intact above the glow. Do not let the tips stick out unnecessarily far beyond the meat over the fiercest part of the fire. If you are cooking for more people and want bigger skewers, check the 30 cm bamboo skewers in the bbq tools.
