1 cup fresh parsley

Instructions
Prepare the kebabs- Whisk 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp red wine vinegar, paprika, cumin, brown sugar, 2 garlic and 1 tsp salt in a large bowl. Cut the beef into 1 1/2-inch pieces, add to the bowl and toss with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours.
Meanwhile, make the salsa- Mix the tomato, bell pepper, onion, 2 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp chopped cilantro, 1 tbsp vinegar, 3/4 tsp salt, and pepper to taste in a bowl. Make the chimichurri- Puree the parsley, 1 cup fresh cilantro, 3/4 cup olive oil, 2 garlic, lemon juice, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper in a blender. Transfer to a bowl. Cover and refrigerate the salsa and chimichurri until serving.
Preheat a grill to high. Thread the beef and sausage onto skewers (keep the meats separate), leaving a bit of space between each piece. Brush the kebabs with olive oil.
Brush the grill with olive oil. Grill the kebabs, turning, until charred and cooked through, 6 to 10 minutes for the beef and 10 to 12 minutes for the sausage. Transfer to a platter and let rest 5 minutes. Season with salt and serve with the salsa and chimichurri.
