Chargrilled Kibbeh 🍖

Grilled Kibbeh Recipe or Kibbeh Mishwiyyeh is one of the many traditional Lebanese dishes with a heavy amount of meat. In this case cooked over a chargrill until soft and rich on the inside and crispy on the outside.

Kibbeh “meat balls” are prepared with minced meat, cracked wheat (burgul) and spices and that are either fried, baked, stewed, BBQ’d or, eaten raw as a pate (kibbeh nayyeh).

Lebanese villages boast recipe variations depending on the region, and ingredients available. We’re featuring the traditional Lebanese Kibbeh Mishwiyyeh stuffed with spicy lamb, cracked wheat (burgul or burghul) and our secret spice mix 🌶️

🔸

Orders need to be placed in advance and can be ordered by the dozen onwards! Kibbeh balls are a hit at barbecues, luncheons and gatherings. To place an order DM us with your quantity and date.

Bon apetit or sa7tan, the Apricot Team 🟠🧡
