skewers
Pointed grilling rods
Skewers are thin pointed sticks or rods for piercing and holding food during cooking: chicken skewers on the grill, fruit skewers at the party.
The verb means to pierce with a skewer, extending figuratively to sharp criticism: The review skewered the film's pretensions.
