Kyufte and Kebapche are symbols of Bulgarian BBQ. To make them juicy with that unforgettable aroma, it's not just the meat that matters, but the strength of the embers.

Choosing the Meat The best results are achieved with a mix of 60% beef and 40% pork. It's crucial that the mince has at least 20-25% fat, which melts over the heat and bastes the meat.

The Role of Charcoal For a traditional grill, you need powerful and clean heat. KOM charcoal from beech, oak, and hornbeam provides exactly that. High temperatures sear the juices inside immediately, preventing drying.

Grilling Technique Never press the patties with a spatula – this forces out the juices. Turn them frequently. When fat drips onto KOM charcoal, it creates that specific bluish smoke that gives the meat its authentic Balkan flavor without any chemical aftertaste.
