Leonards Kebab Mix

Wholesale Spicy Kebab & Kofta Mixes for Butchers

The legendary, 30-year classic mix that turns meat trim into high-margin summer sellers.

The Original Spicy Kebab mix is the foundation upon which Leonards Ingredients was built. Crafted over three decades ago in a busy butcher’s shop in Portsmouth, this time-tested recipe is now manufactured at their modern production facility in East Sussex. It remains an unrivaled favourite across the UK butchery trade.

Specially formulated to add maximum value to your lamb and beef trim, this range allows you to create succulent grill sticks, koftas, and skewers that keep customers coming back year after year, especially during the peak BBQ season. We also supply the Pintro P160 Kebab Maker.

Trade Tip: Maximize Counter Appeal

This versatile mix is perfect for forming into diverse shapes (skewers, burgers, or grill sticks). For an extra layer of texture and colour, press your formed kebabs into one of Leonards Décor Crumb Coaters before putting them on display.
