Main Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs beef sirloin cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tbsp BBQ seasoning or your favorite dry rub
  • 1 tbsp olive oil for coating
  • 1/4 cup BBQ sauce for brushing

Instructions
 

  • Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
  • Toss beef cubes with olive oil and BBQ seasoning until evenly coated.
  • Thread beef onto skewers, leaving a small space between pieces for even cooking.
  • Preheat air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Place skewers in a single layer in the basket.
