This ground beef recipe is super easy, and the kebabs are tender, juicy, can be made ahead, and they taste divine, so really, there’s nothing stopping you! I served them at home this weekend, and they were gone within the first ten minutes of dinner being served! I used a mortar and pestle to crush some ingredients, but you can use a food processor if you have one.
