Grilled Meat-On-A-Stick (Kafta Kebabs)
MAKE IT SHINE!
ADD YOUR PHOTO
Seasoned ground meat is packed around skewers and grilled for this classic Middle-Eastern dish. This recipe was published by my grandmother-in-law's Armenian Orthodox church. If you're using beef, don't use leaner than 85/15 fat percentage or the kebabs will tend to fall apart. You can find a recipe for Syrian pepper in my profile, or substitute a 50-50 blend of ground pepper and allspice.

- Pack handfuls of the meat mixture onto skewers to form cylinders about 1" thick.
