Kebab Skewers
Kebab skewers are easy to use and really add a bit of sophistication to your BBQ, not mention making it easier for your guests to enjoy their kebabs. There are lots of different options available including both disposable and reusable. For eco friendly reasons we always suggest opting for anything that is reusable and if you don’t already have any skewers then we recommend the Square Kebab Skewers from Spice Kitchen that come in packs of 5, 10, 15 or 20. They are 53cm long – 8mm wide and are made with a sturdy, square skewer blade design and wooden handle.
