Cag Kebab

The cag kebab, which is special to Erzurum, is prepared by cooking the previously marinated meat on a horizontal skewer with the help of wood fire. It has been called so since it is served with skewers called cag. The first time customers wonder about “cag” and “Tortum” mean. The “skewer” is called as “cag” in Erzurum. The tale of the cag kebab, which is also called "horizontal doner" is as follows.

"The meat cooked on wood fire are arranged on the skewers and cut. The first name of the cag kebab is fellow kebab. The fellow kebab, which is prepared at the friends meetings, has been transformed into cag kebab with the time. Tortum is a county of  Erzurum. The original land for the cag kebab is also Tortum.

Although the cag kebab has looked like as if it was “too nourishing” at first look, it is in demand quite a lot lately. The reason for this is the cholesterol values of the lamb meat used for the cag kebab is similar to the poultry meat and it is lower than the egg. We have hanged  panels on our walls that show the conclusions of the scientific reports in relation to this issue.  We prove that the cag kebab has low levels of cholesterol with the documents.
