Kababs

[nom de plume]

From time to time I enjoy the odd kabab but the way they are prepared

has got me thinking. You have a large chunk of processed meat on a spit

which is then rotated in front of a heat source. When the meat is

browned it is then shaved off. If the entire thing of meat was to be

cooked in one go I could understand that there should not be any bugs.

But at the end of a session the heat is turned off and the meat stored

in a fridge until the next time. Surely this is a recipe for food

possioning?

I dont know anyone who has had food poisoning after one and surely that method of cooking would be banned.  However have you seen the yellow solidified fat on them when allowed to go cold?  Now that is more worrying

Lived in Saudi Arabia, Morocco, and the Yemen dined well in all of them. Unlike McDonalds nobody spends millions encouraging you to eat there. I used to dine in a Turkish Cafe close to the Tabard in Turnham Green. I do not like people banning things. I don't care much for evangelical religions either.

Ahh salmonella ona stick [:-))][:D]

 

My brother was a Chief EHO for many years and hated the things but couldn't find a way to ban them [;-)] he said they were not supposed to refrigerate them and then reheat etc. but they all do[;-)]

 

I always go for the chicken kebab on skewers (much healthier anyway [;-)]) cos' I don't like doner kebabs [:D]

I have a kebab about once every two years, but I don't have any trouble if I lay off the chillis. They're mostly a case of getting what you pay for, though the worst by far was in Paris. I think that the meat gets reheated to a suitable temperature on the magic roundabout thing, doesn't it?

Nom de plume, Dick is quite obviously on holiday as he didn`t correct you on your spelling![Www]

Iskender Kebab is my favorite , although I havn`t enjoyed one in years.  I have a cast iron stomach so do not have to worry what I eat.

Yup, touch wood, the ONLY food I have EVER been poisoned by was vegetarian.  Every time.  In the UK, in Israel, in Africa.  I love kebabs, they're perfectly respectable food in France, although not in UK.

[Neil]

I enjoy them, but I always avoid those described as 'donor' kebabs. They sound worrying.

Hello

One of my customers in England was a Pathologist of Iraqi origin. He had a half share of a Kebab shop in Liverpool. I have always wondered.........................

Have a nice day

Radio one had a phone in a couple of years ago about cheesy names for businesses and a mobile kebab van won called Jasons Doner Van.
