Last Friday night was complete chaos at our house. The kids were screaming over which show to watch, my husband was still on a work call at 7 PM, and I was about two seconds away from declaring it a fend-for-yourself dinner night. That’s when the thought hit me what if I could bring the flavor of Texas Roadhouse home tonight? More specifically, I’d been craving that juicy, grilled perfection and bold seasoning from their famous skewers. And just like that, I found myself digging into the Texas Roadhouse Steak Kabob recipe determined to recreate that smoky, steakhouse magic right in my own kitchen.

Why My Kids Go Crazy for Texas Roadhouse Rolls

Okay, before we even get to the steak kabobs, let’s talk about the rolls.

You cannot walk into Texas Roadhouse and not eat at least four rolls. I don’t care who you are. The second they hit the table with that cinnamon honey butter? Gone. Vanished.

My youngest tried to take an extra roll off my plate, and I had to channel my inner “Mom Look” to stop him.

The Steak Kabob That Changed My Life

Now, let’s talk about the real star of the night: my Texas Roadhouse Steak Kabob.

I ordered it on a whim a while back when I wanted steak but didn’t feel like committing to a full-size one. Best decision ever. It’s basically juicy, grilled-to-perfection sirloin chunks, threaded onto a skewer with bell peppers, mushrooms, onions, and tomato.

And the flavor? Insane. It’s savory, smoky, slightly caramelized, and just melts in your mouth. I don’t know what magic they put in their marinade, but it works.

It also comes with seasoned rice, which I swear tastes better than any rice I’ve ever made at home. (What is their secret? Do they use a special broth? A potion? I need answers.)

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika

  • 1 red onion (cut into wedges)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Steak:

  • In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, balsamic vinegar, garlic, brown sugar, and spices.
  • Add steak cubes, ensuring they’re fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (overnight for best flavor).

Notes

Juicy, tender steak chunks marinated in a flavorful blend of spices and grilled to perfection alongside vibrant bell peppers, onions, and cherry tomatoes. These Texas Roadhouse-style steak kabobs are bursting with smoky, savory goodness, making them a crowd favorite. Served over a bed of seasoned rice or with a baked potato, this dish is a perfect balance of protein, veggies, and bold flavors.

Pro Tips for Perfect Steak Kabobs:

Choose the Right Cut: Use sirloin for its balance of tenderness and flavor. Trim excess fat for even cooking.
Marinate for Maximum Flavor: Let the steak soak in the marinade for at least 30 minutes, but overnight is best for deeper flavor penetration.
Even-Sized Pieces: Cut steak and veggies into uniform chunks (about 1.5 inches) to ensure even cooking.
Soak Wooden Skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.
High Heat is Key: Grill on medium-high heat (400-450°F) to get a nice sear while keeping the steak juicy inside.
Don’t Overcook the Steak: Use a meat thermometer—130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium. Overcooking makes the steak tough.
Rest Before Serving: Let the kabobs rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
Baste for Extra Juiciness: Brush extra marinade or melted butter on the kabobs while grilling for added moisture and richness.
