Cut the beef sirloin into 1.5-inch cubes and set aside in a large bowl.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, brown sugar, and black pepper to make the marinade.
Pour the marinade over the beef cubes, ensuring all pieces are well-coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
While the beef is marinating, soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes if using wooden skewers, to prevent them from burning during grilling. This step can be skipped if using metal skewers.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Prepare the vegetables by cutting the red and green bell peppers into 1.5-inch pieces, and slice the red onion into chunks of a similar size. Keep cherry tomatoes whole.
Thread the marinated beef and prepared vegetables onto the skewers, alternating beef, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, cherry tomato, and onion.
Place the skewers on the preheated grill and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning every 2-3 minutes to ensure even cooking. The beef should be browned on the edges but not overcooked for optimal tenderness.
Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for about 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the beef shish kabobs hot with your choice of side dishes, such as rice or a fresh salad.
