I have honestly never seen a beef kebab (at least in London) - mostly lamb, sometimes chicken on offer.

It looks like it might depend on the origin of the population running kebab shops in particular areas, here most are Turkish, Kurdish, or Greek - and lamb is the main offering, beef is never on the menu. It looks though (thank you google!) that Afghan and Iranian kebab type dishes may be more likely to contain beef.

There's not enough seasoning in that. Also, isn't available with chilli saucekebab in a tin you say?

We went here last night and had the best "kebab" I've ever had. Having said that they're about as close to your regular doner kebab as Bentley's is to the local chippy, but my word, the flavours were absolutely outstanding.
We had a selection of the stuff for starters, I had the 15 hour pork ribeye shawarma, and Mrs S the Dorset lamb madras kebab.
Trying to get her to go back again tonight.

Have you never seen them gang up on sheep? They work as a team to separate a sheep and then play with its woolSince when did domestic cats have the ability to catch and kill sheep?

kebab in a tin you say?
That shit is very low meat content, they have a real cheek calling it "Supermeat". 4% lamb, mostly wheat and they also add sugar to it. McDonalds for cats.
(ie don't worry too much whether your cat would be likely to catch and eat a lamb in the wild, worry more about whether it would chomp through a load of wheat, soya, and a small amount of meat with added sugar
)I've sometimes been getting a kebab from a kebab / curry takeaway place recently. The naga chili one I've only had the once. They use narn bread instead of
pitta. I might go for the naga one again next week, it was at that point of being a bit too hot and a little painful for me but you still want to do it again...
Never had beef from a takeaway but the local butchers sometimes does beef kebab meat.

I managed to find some pre-made kebab seasoning, so have been using this instead of the individual spices I listed before. I’ve seen similar mixes on eBay before, but for reference I’m showing the label in case anyone wants to try to replicate it when attempting DIY kebab.
also, thinking about the results I get with my “kebab in a tin“ attempts, the biggest difference is the texture. Proper kebab shop doner meat comes in shiny, pliable ribbons. Mine is a bit more crumbly and drier looking, so I guess I’m adding too much breadcrumb filler, or more likely lacking on the fat content, as my supermarket mince is only 12% fat. Maybe I’ll buy a tin of artery clogging, hydrogenated vegetable ghee and throw some into the mix, for the real “death by takeaway“ experience.

I wouldn't try to replicate a doner kebab, you can do a shish or a kofte very easily - that spice mix looks perfect for a kofte (minced lamb, mix with spices, shape around a skewer and cook at a high heat)

Good for you. Junk food is bad for you, including the impact on brain function.
Feel like a kebab? Have some peppered mackerel and fresh veg. Much more healthy.

I like junk food. But I was brought up in a small town where there were no kebab shops. By the time I lived somewhere they were available, I had become vegetarian.

Oh, indeed. I’ve had that sort of thing many times. Falafel too. It’s the big turney thing meat and meat on skewers I haven’t had. You know, from a kebab shop.
The first purpose made kebab shop I knew - in Stirling - did excellent pakora, so I didn’t feel left out. (Delight Kebab in Murray Place, TheHoodedClaw - Chico and Nico. Remember them? I met Nico in Great Western Road during lockdown).

It's all good, man
You do realise that those extra few years you live due to eating healthy (boring) food, aren't the years you spend shagging and partying, right? They're the years you spend pissing and shitting yourself in a care facility.
You stick with your Mackeral. I'm going out with a kebab and a smile.

Stop talking about doner as if it's the only type of kebab. There are SO MANY KINDS OF KEBAB.
