Squeeze out the air and close the bag. Refrigerate, turning occasionally, for at least 8 hours and up to 16 hours. (Or, if you are pressed for time, marinate the beef at room temperature for 1 hour.) 3.Prepare an outdoor grill or preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. 4.Thread equal amounts of the beef onto the skewers. Spray the skewers with cooking spray. 5.If grilling, brush the grill grates clean. If using a grill pan, you will have to grill the skewers in batches. Grill or pan-grill the skewers, turning occasionally, until browned, about 8 minutes for medium rare. Transfer to a platter and serve immediately.
