From spit to pita. How a Kebabberia kebab is made

A good kebab looks simple. Bread, meat, veg, sauce. The difference lies in the steps, the order you do them in and the care you put into them. Here is how a Kebabberia pita is made, from the spit turning behind the counter to the first bite.

The spit, it all starts here

The meat is the heart of the kebab, and it can be chicken and turkey mix or veal. You choose. It cooks on the vertical spit, which turns slowly in front of the heat, so it browns outside and stays tender inside. The spit is the heart of the counter. Watching the meat turn is already half of the flavour.

The cut, thin, off the spit

When you order, the meat is sliced off the spit into thin slices. The cut matters. Thin slices heat up straight away, mix well with the veg and the sauce, and are easy to eat. It’s also the gesture you recognise at once, the one that says “this is a proper kebab”.

The bread, warm and soft

Then it’s the bread’s turn. The pita is warmed on the griddle until it turns warm, soft and fragrant, with a few light golden spots. It’s the bread that holds everything together without stealing the show. If you want something different, there’s the Panino Kebab, the wrap and, to eat without bread, the Kebab Plate.

The veg and the fries

Inside the pita go crisp lettuce, tomatoes, fresh onion, sweetcorn and julienne carrots. Crunchy, colourful, fresh. And yes, the fries too, hot, right inside. A detail that changes the bite, because it adds a crunchy, salty note to every mouthful.

The sauce, pick one of seven

The last step is the most personal. You choose the sauce, out of our seven

• KB Special Sauce, the house sauce, creamy and spiced.
• Hot Sauce, chilli and vinegar, for anyone who wants a little fire.
• BBQ Sauce, sweet and smoky, the taste of the grill.
• Cheese Sauce, melted cheese, soft and comforting.
• KB Creamy Sauce, creamy and blush-pink, with a hint of spice.
• Ketchup, the sweet tomato everyone likes.
• Mayonnaise, creamy and light, the base of many sauces.

The paper with the K

Everything closes up in the black paper with the red Ks, one squeeze and off you go. The pita stays in one hand, warm to the end. That way it’s ready to eat straight away, standing at the counter or sitting at a table.

Your way

The best thing about a Kebabberia pita is that you build it. Four choices, nothing more complicated. Chicken and turkey mix or veal; the veg you like, and if one doesn’t convince you, you leave it out; the fries inside or not; the sauce. So two people ordering the same pita walk away with two different sandwiches, each built around their own taste, and neither had to settle.

That’s why we always ask “how do you want it?”. It isn’t a polite formula. It’s the most important part of the job, because the right pita is the one you would have chosen yourself.

Which one to pick?

• Small Pita Kebab, for a quick bite or a half-sized hunger.
• Medium Pita Kebab, the Original, the right size for a real lunch.
• Large Pita Kebab, the most generous, for when hunger is serious.
• Pita Greca. Greek style, warmed on the griddle.
• Falafel Pita, with falafel, crunchy veg and the sauce you like.
• Kebab Box, everything in a box you can take anywhere.
