Here's a Couple Spiedi marinades you might want to try this spring. Or you can use it on them on Chicken,lamp,pork or Venison.

If you decide to try these on pork or Venison use a wine Vinegar. One other thing I like to do. Mix all your dry seasonings in with the meat first then add your wet ingrediants. That way your ingrediants will stick to the meat and give you more flavor.

Spiedies (pronouced Speedies) are a very yummy grilled "sandwich" that
originated in or around Broome County, NY

Meats such as pork, chicken, beef, lamb or venison are cut into bite size pieces and marinated in spiedie sauce for 24 to 48 hours. Then the meat is skewered like shish kabobs and and grilled. The traditional way to serve them is to fold a piece of sandwich sized Italian bread and place meat in the center. Then you can spoon more fresh marinade over it and enjoy. Most restaurants in the area serve them as submarine sandwiches.

3/4 cup lemon juice
2 tsp. salt
2 tsp thyme
2 tsp marjoram
1/4 tsp pepper
3 cloves chopped garlic

Cut pork, lamb or just about any type of meat into 1 to 1 1/2" cubes. Marinate in the sauce, made from above mixture, for at least 24 hours. Place on skewers and barbecue over charcoal or gas grill until done. (Approx cooking time, 20 minutes) Serve on a slice of Italian Bread.
