Shish Kofta
Shish kofta () ( Turkish) is a type of kebab-style kofta dish in Turkish cuisine. The dish consists of minced lamb, mutton, veal or beef, or a mixture of these meats mixed with herbs, often including parsley and mint, placed on a ''şiş'' (skewer) and grilled. It is typically served with ''pilav'' (Turkish-style rice or bulgur wheat) and salad. There are several regional variations on shish kofta. ''Tire köfte'' is made mainly with veal. The city of Burdur is known for its distinct variant of shish kofta known as ''Burdur şiş'', which is traditionally made with minced goat meat (or more commonly with beef today), with salt but no spices or herbs, and eaten with a special type of pita bread. ''Burdur şiş'' was officially recognised as a distinct variant of shish kofta by the Turkish Patent and Trademark Office in 2010. Shish kofta is also the basis of ''yoğurtlu kebap'' (kebab with yogurt). See also * Ćevapi * Burdur Şiş * Kebab * List of kebabs * Shish kebab * Se ...

Barbecue
Barbecue or barbeque (often shortened to BBQ worldwide; barbie or barby in Australia and New Zealand) is a term used with significant regional and national variations to describe various cooking methods that employ live fire and smoke to cook food. The term is also generally applied to the devices associated with those methods, the broader cuisines that these methods produce, and the meals or gatherings at which this style of food is cooked and served. The cooking methods associated with barbecuing vary significantly. The various regional variations of barbecue can be broadly categorized into those methods which use direct and those which use indirect heating. Indirect barbecues are associated with US cuisine, in which meat is heated by roasting or smoking over wood or charcoal. These methods of barbecue involve cooking using smoke at low temperatures with long cooking times, for several hours. Elsewhere, barbecuing more commonly refers to the more direct application of heat ...

Skewered Kebabs
A skewer is a thin metal or wood stick used to hold pieces of food together. The word may sometimes be used as a metonym, to refer to the entire food item served on a skewer, as in "chicken skewers". Skewers are used while grilling or roasting meats and fish, and in other culinary applications. In English, brochette is a borrowing of the French word for skewer. In cookery, ''en brochette'' means 'on a skewer', and describes the form of a dish or the method of cooking and serving pieces of food, especially grilled meat or seafood, on skewers; for example "lamb cubes en brochette". Skewers are often used in a variety of kebab dishes. Utensil Metal skewers are typically stainless steel rods with a pointed tip on one end and a grip of some kind on the other end for ease of removing the food. Non-metallic skewers are often made from bamboo, as well as hardwoods such as birch, beech, or other suitable wood. Prior to grilling, wooden skewers may be soaked in water to avoid burning. ...

Kabab Koobideh
''Kabab koobideh'' ( ) is an Iranian variant of kofta kebab made from ground lamb, often mixed with salt, ground black pepper and grated onions. Etymology ''Koobideh'' is derived from the past participle of the Persian infinitive ''koobidan'' (کوبیدن), meaning "to pound," which refers to the traditional method of preparing the meat. In some regions, the dish is also known as "koufteh kabab," originating from the older Persian root ''kouftan'', meaning "to slam" or "to hit." Traditionally, the meat was placed on a flat stone or log and pounded with a wooden mallet to achieve the desired texture. The meat is then cooked on a ''seekh'' (سیخ), the Persian word for "skewer." Koobideh is similar to the Turkish Adana kebab, though there may be regional variations in preparation and flavor. The word kebab( Kabab) is also a Persian word and appears in the poetry of Persian-speaking poets, including Rudaki, in the 9th century AD. Therefore, any country that serves this dish u ...

Shish Kebab
Shish kebab or shish kebap is a popular meal of skewered and grilled cubes of meat. It can be found in Mediterranean cuisine. It is one of the many types of kebab, a range of meat dishes originating in the Middle East. In North American English, the word ''kebab'' alone often refers to shish kebab, though outside of North America, ''kebab'' may also mean doner kebab. It is traditionally made of lamb but there are also versions with various kinds of meat, poultry, or fish. In Turkey, shish kebab and the vegetables served with it are grilled separately, normally not on the same skewer. Etymology ''Shish kebab'' is an English rendering of (sword or skewer) and ''kebap'' (roasted meat dish), that dates from around the beginning of the 20th century. According to the ''Oxford English Dictionary'', its earliest known publication in English is in the 1914 novel '' Our Mr. Wrenn'' by Sinclair Lewis.
