Kazbaşı grilled meat is an Erzurum-associated Turkish preparation of lamb grilled in substantial pieces, often on skewers. Despite literal-looking translations, kazbaşı does not mean grilled goose head meat in this dish.
No. Kazbaşı grilled meat is generally made with lamb, not goose or goose head. The Turkish name can mislead English readers, but kazbaşı is the name of a regional lamb preparation.
Kazbaşı grilled meat is commonly made with large lamb pieces, sometimes cut close to the bone. The exact cut can vary by butcher or regional recipe, so ask which lamb cut is being used when ordering.
Kazbaşı grilled meat is associated with Erzurum and the eastern Anatolian food tradition. It is a regional lamb dish, rather than a preparation involving a goose’s head.
Kazbaşı grilled meat is cooked as large lamb pieces over a grill or on skewers. Cağ kebab is roasted on a horizontal rotating spit and shaved into thin slices for serving.
Yes. Arrange kazbaşı lamb pieces in a single layer on a rack or tray and use the oven’s grill setting, turning them as they brown. A very crowded tray steams the meat instead of giving it a grilled surface.
Kazbaşı lamb can stick or fall off when the pieces are too small, uneven, or packed loosely. Cut similarly sized chunks and thread them securely; metal skewers should be clean and lightly oiled before grilling.
Salt and black pepper are simple seasonings for kazbaşı grilled meat, letting the lamb remain the focus. Some cooks add onion or mild spices, but a strongly acidic marinade can soften the surface if left on too long.
Serve kazbaşı grilled meat with flatbread, grilled tomato and pepper, and a fresh salad. A yogurt-based side or ayran also balances the rich, savory lamb and makes the meal feel more complete.
Yes. Cool leftover kazbaşı grilled meat promptly, seal it in a freezer-safe container, and thaw it in the refrigerator before reheating. Reheat it thoroughly; freezing may make already well-done lamb a little drier.

Grilled goose head meat is goose meat from the head, cooked over a grill. Goose has a long place in the food traditions of eastern Anatolia, where it is especially associated with cold-weather meals and local goose-raising regions.
Grilling gives the meat a browned exterior and a rich, distinctive flavour. It is best served hot, often with bread, onion and fresh greens, as a main dish or part of a shared meal. It is protein-rich, with 24.8 g of protein per 100 g, and contains no carbohydrates. For a lighter plate, pair a modest portion with salad or grilled vegetables.
