Kabobs -- or kebabs -- originate in the Middle Eastern and Mediterranean regions of the world and refer to meat cooked on skewers. Chicken, beef and lamb are skewered and cooked to make this tasty dish, though recipes vary from culture to culture. Some cultural regions like to marinate the meat before cooking and others serve the meat without the skewer. The kabob most familiar to Western countries, especially the U.S., features a mix of meat and vegetables, which are grilled and served on the wooden or metal skewers.
