Authentic Serbian Ćevapčići Recipe

Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds ground pork
• 1 pound lean ground beef
• 0.5 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
• 0.5 teaspoon paprika

Instructions

1. Prepare all the necessary ingredients for making Ćevapčići.
2. Preheat your outdoor grill to medium heat and lightly oil the grilling surface to prevent sticking.
3. In a large mixing bowl, thoroughly combine the ground pork, ground beef, ground lamb, and egg white.
4. Incorporate the garlic, black pepper, salt, baking soda, cayenne pepper, and paprika into the mixture. Use your hands to mix everything until well combined. Shape the mixture into finger-length sausages, approximately 3/4-inch thick.
5. Place the sausages on the preheated grill and cook, turning them occasionally to ensure even cooking. Grill until they are no longer pink in the center, which should take about 30 minutes. For best results, use an instant-read thermometer; when inserted into the center, it should register 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
