In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together Coca Cola, soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, olive oil, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the cubed steak in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring all pieces are evenly coated.
Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 375°F/190°C).
Thread the marinated steak cubes onto the skewers, alternating with chunks of red onion, bell peppers, zucchini slices, and cherry tomatoes.
Brush the assembled kabobs with a little of the leftover marinade. Discard any excess marinade that has touched the raw steak.
Place the kabobs on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning every 2-3 minutes to ensure even cooking. Cook until the steak reaches your desired level of doneness (145°F/63°C for medium-rare).
Once cooked, remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the Coca Cola steak kabobs hot with your favorite side dishes, such as a fresh salad or grilled corn.
