Description

Ćevapčići is a tasty homemade grilled sausage. This Serbian-style recipe combines ground pork, beef, and lamb with garlic, black pepper, and cayenne.

Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds ground pork
1 pound lean ground beef
1/2 pound ground lamb
1 egg white
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons ground black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika

Directions

1 Gather all ingredients.
2 Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
3 Combine ground pork, ground beef, ground lamb, and egg white in a large bowl.
4 Add garlic, black pepper, salt, baking soda, cayenne pepper, and paprika. Mix well using your hands; form into finger-length sausages about 3/4-inch thick.
5 Cook sausages on the preheated grill, turning occasionally, until no longer pink in the center, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
