Kafta (BBQ)
Description
The yummiest preparation mixture for ground beef EVER! I have made this Lebanese meat for all of my friends and family and have HAD to leave the recipe with everyone! The mixture can be used for everything: meatballs, meatloaf, BBQ skewers, and hamburgers.
Ingredients
•
1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
•
1 medium onion, grated
•
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
•
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
•
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
•
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
•
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
•
6 wooden or metal skewers
Directions
1
Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat. If using wooden skewers, soak in water.
2
In a large bowl, mix together the ground beef, onion, parsley, cayenne, allspice, salt and pepper until evenly blended. Divide into 6 portions, and press around one end of the skewers to form a log shape approximately 1 inch thick and 6 inches long.
3
Grill for 10 to 15 minutes, turning occasionally, until meat is no longer pink.
