Xinjiang kebabs are popular throughout the country, and it is deservedly the most widely spread "Western cuisine" in China, and there is no one. Xinjiang roast lamb can be seen almost everywhere in the supper stalls of various cities, which can be said to be the favorite supper must-order food of Chinese.
Although they are all named "Xinjiang kebabs", most of them are not authentic, and if you want to taste authentic Xinjiang kebabs, you still have to visit Xinjiang. Then some people may ask, where is the best lamb kebab in Xinjiang? As someone who has been to Xinjiang several times and has eaten lamb kebabs in many places in Xinjiang, I can tell you with certainty that it is "Bachu"!
Bachu, short for Balchuk, is located in southwestern Xinjiang and belongs to the Kashgar region. Strategically located on the main road of transportation, it was an important station on the ancient Silk Road. Today, as the transportation hub of southern Xinjiang and the eastern gate of Kashgar region, it is an important channel for Chinese flow and logistics from Kashgar to Central Asia.
Bachu has a long history and profound humanities, is the birthplace of poplar culture and the birthplace of Daolang dance, where there is a rich and colorful folk culture, sheep racing, Daolang Muqam, Daolang Mai Xi Refu, ethnic musical instrument making skills and so on are all unique local intangible cultural heritage.
Bachu tourism resources are very rich, in addition to the diverse natural scenery and rich historical monuments, here the famous specialties and flavors of food, is also the most unmissable tip of the tongue to enjoy, experience Bachu cuisine, may become one of the reasons you fall in love with it.
When it comes to Bachu cuisine, Bachu grilled meat, Bachu grilled fish, Bachu grilled beef, Bachu grilled camel, Bachu grilled chicken, Bachu noodle lungs, Xinjiang cistanche, Rob macha, etc. are all famous local flavors in Xinjiang. Among them, Bachu's "red willow grilled meat" and "red willow grilled fish" are the most famous.
In particular, Bachu's "red willow grilled meat" can definitely be called the "authentic" in Xinjiang kebabs, and it is no exaggeration to say that this is the best kebab I have ever eaten. The reason why "red willow roast meat" is delicious is first of all because the local lamb quality is excellent, the lamb is freshly slaughtered and grilled, the meat is tasteless, tight and delicious, fat and not greasy, the lamb grilled with red willow branches, the lamb penetrates into the red willow branch liquid, the taste is more special.
And Bachu "red willow barbecue" does not use open fire to bake, but with poplar charcoal slowly baked, this side of the barbecue meat does not add our common cumin powder and other spices, the baking process is only sprinkled with some salt water. Even so, the roasted lamb is also very fragrant, retaining the original flavor of the lamb. The "red willow barbecue" I ate in the Bachu Red SeaView Area cost 30 yuan per skewer, which is relatively "good quality and low price". Having eaten so many lamb kebabs, Bachu "Red Willow Grilled Meat" is the "authentic" of Xinjiang barbecue, and you must also try it when you have the opportunity.
