Answer 4

If that's what they are called in the PI and people know what you are talking about...just go with it!  Skewer is the object that is pierced through the meat or vegetables before it is grilled...so it would be called "skewered meat".  That doesn't sound to appetizing.  Barbecue sticks, kebabs, skewered meat...it's all good to me.

Answer 5

its skewer..
