Grilling the Perfect Kebab: Tips from Our Chef

Mastering the Art of Kebab Grilling

Grilling the perfect kebab requires patience, technique, and the right ingredients. Our head chef shares his time-tested secrets for creating juicy, flavorful kebabs every time.

Choosing the Right Meat

  • Lamb: Choose shoulder or leg cuts for tenderness and flavor.
  • Chicken: Thigh meat is ideal for kebabs as it stays juicy during grilling.
  • Beef: Sirloin or tenderloin cuts work best for beef kebabs.

The Perfect Marinade

Our signature marinade combines olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and Mediterranean herbs. Marinate your meat for at least 4 hours, or overnight for maximum flavor penetration.

Grilling Technique

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Thread the meat onto skewers, leaving space between pieces for even cooking. Grill for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the meat reaches the desired doneness.

Pro Tips from Our Chef

  • Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes before using
  • Don't overcrowd the skewers
  • Let the meat rest for 5 minutes after grilling
  • Serve with fresh herbs and lemon wedges
