Equipment

  • 1 DNKMOR Charcoal Grill with 2 Side Tables

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs ground beef preferably with a little fat for juicy kababs
  • 1 medium onion finely grated and squeezed dry
  • 2 Inch ginger crushed
  • 3 -4 green chilies finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup Corn Meal (peeli makkai) or gram flour (besan)
  • 2 tsp Salt adjust to taste
  • 1 tbsp Corriander crushed
  • 1 tbsp Cumin crushed
  • 1 tbsp Red Chilli Flakes
  • 2 tbsp Pomegranate Powder

Instructions

Preparing the Seekh Kabab Mixture

  • Add ground beef to a large mixing bowl.
  • Add all spices, herbs, onion, ginger, cilantro, green chilies, gram flour.
  • Mix everything very well until the mixture becomes slightly sticky. This helps the kababs hold their shape.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. For the best flavor, allow it to rest overnight.

Shaping the Seekh Kababs

  • Wet your hands lightly with water or oil.
  • Take a portion of the mixture.
  • Press it around the skewer and shape it into long kababs.
  • Make sure the thickness is even so they cook properly.

Charcoal BBQ Cooking Method

  • Prepare hot charcoal until it becomes glowing and covered with ash.
  • Place the seekh kababs on the grill.
  • Cook while turning gently until all sides are beautifully browned and slightly charred.
  • Brush lightly with oil or butter while grilling for extra flavor.
  • Once cooked, remove from heat and rest for a few minutes.
    • Serve hot with naan, chutney, and fresh salad

Notes

Beef Seekh Kabab represents the heart of Pakistani BBQ — bold spices, smoky flavors, and the joy of sharing food with loved ones. As the kababs cook over charcoal, the spices bloom and create a mouthwatering aroma.
