# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The balsamic marinade caramelizes beautifully giving everything this gorgeous sticky glaze that people cant stop talking about
  • Everything cooks on one set of skewers so cleanup is practically nonexistent and you look like a grill genius
02 -
  • Soak wooden skewers for at least 30 minutes or they will burn on the grill and leave you with splinters in your food
  • Dont overcrowd the skewers because if everything is touching too tightly the vegetables will steam instead of getting those perfect grill marks
03 -
  • Cut all your vegetables and sausage pieces to roughly the same size so everything finishes cooking at the same time
  • Use two skewers parallel to each other for each portion instead of one to prevent ingredients from spinning when you try to turn them
