Fajita seasoning isn’t just for making fajitas, it’s also a perfect rub for grilling skewered chunks of wild game meat over a hot grill. These flavorful elk venison rubbed skewers make a simple and easy dinner recipe for any night of the week!
Since game meat is lean, it’s best to grill these skewers over high heat. I prefer to grill at 500 degrees for approximately 1 -2 minutes on all 4 sides. Then quickly remove, cover loosely with foil and let rest before slicing. If you want to add skewered vegetables, be sure to grill them separate of the meat since they will need more time to cook. ~Enjoy.
