Garlicky Beef Skewers with Potato Hash & Spiked Ketchup

IMG_0618 (800x533)

Lots of stuff going on today. I’ve had the chance to try out a new pan and I wanted to share it with you guys because it’s one of my new favorite ones to use! I also have a tasty dish that’s easy to whip up, but looks like you spent a lot of time on it.

Stainless Steel Earth Pan

Normally when I have pan fried potatoes I have had them stick a little to the pan and end up adding a ton of butter to the pan just to keep them from doing so. I loved how the Stainless Steel Earth Pan by Ozeri kept that from happening. This pan also has that weight to it that I like when I’m using a pan to cook with. Another bonus for me is that it’s dishwasher safe. After using the pan on several occasions now I am a HUGE fan of this product. The pan is even safe in your oven for those dishes you need to finish off up to 500 degrees F. I know you have some gift cards and extra cash from Christmas gifts to use so go get your own pan! The easiest thing to do is head on over to Amazon and order you one today!

Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, 10-15 minutes.

Broil the meat on the top rack, turning occasionally, until cooked, about 10 minutes. (I grilled mine instead of broiling the meat.)

In a bowl, make the spiked ketchup: Stir the ketchup with the Worcestershire sauce, horseradish, Tabasco and a pinch of coarse pepper.
