Balkan-Style Croatian Ćevapi
Balkan-Style Croatian Ćevapi deliver juicy, well-seasoned grilled meat with a gentle smokiness and a hint of paprika and garlic. The blend of beef and veal creates a tender bite, balanced by subtle heat from red pepper flakes. Serve hot off the grill for a casual backyard dinner or a weekend gathering with flatbreads, onions, and ajvar.
