If barbecue is the main course, allow about 500 g of raw meat per adult. If you’re also serving salads, dolma and starters, 350 g is enough. A child’s portion counts as half an adult’s. Each type of meat is rounded up to the nearest 500 g, as that’s how we cut it.

How much meat per person do you need for a barbecue?

How much meat do you need for a barbecue for 10 people?
For 10 adults you need about 5 kg of raw meat if the barbecue is the main course, and about 3.5 kg if there will be other dishes too.
How much weight does meat lose when grilled?
Meat loses about a third of its weight on the grill: 1 kg of raw meat gives roughly 650–700 g once grilled.
Can I order the meat already grilled?
Yes. Choose your meat in the shop and we’ll grill it over wood for 600 ֏ per kg, with a cardboard container and a lavash added for every 2.5 kg. The meat is charged at its own price, and kebab is grilled at no extra charge.
