Method
 

Preparation
  1. Prepare the marinade by whisking together soy sauce, olive oil, honey, minced garlic, and black pepper in a bowl.
  2. Add the cubed beef to the marinade, ensuring it's fully coated, then refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for deeper flavor.
Assemble Kabobs
  1. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
  2. Thread the marinated beef, bell peppers, red onion, and cherry tomatoes onto the skewers, alternating ingredients for an even cook and appealing presentation.
Grill Kabobs
  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375-400°F or 190-200°C) and lightly oil the grates.
  2. Place the kabobs on the hot grill and cook for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the beef is cooked to your desired doneness and the vegetables are tender-crisp and slightly charred.
Serve
  1. Remove kabobs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
  2. Serve hot and enjoy your homemade beef kabobs!

Notes

For an extra kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade. You can also customize the vegetables based on your preference, such as adding zucchini or mushrooms. Always make sure to properly cook beef to a safe internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, and let it rest for 3 minutes before serving.
