Preparation Steps
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef with kosher salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until evenly distributed.
  2. Lay each tortilla flat. Spread a layer of the beef mixture over it, leaving a small border. Top with shredded cheese and drizzle with burger sauce.
  3. Roll each tortilla tightly into a log shape, tucking in the edges, then slice into 1 to 1.5-inch pieces.
  4. Take the soaked wooden skewers and thread the sliced pinwheels onto them snugly, placing about four to five pieces per skewer.
  5. Preheat your oven to 400°F or heat a large griddle over medium heat. Cook skewers for about 18-22 minutes until golden and crispy.
  6. Let the skewers cool slightly after cooking. Serve warm with additional sauces or toppings of your choice.
