The British Kebab Awards have become a fixture in the annual food awards calendar and celebrate the growing contribution of the kebab industry to the UK.

The first kebab shop opened in North London in 1966 and there are now over 20,000 kebab outlets in the UK selling an estimated 1.5m kebabs every day.
The awards are sponsored by the UK’s largest takeaway website JUST EAT Takeaway, as well as Ben and Jerry’s, Big K, Cobra Beer and Coca Cola, with the aim of showcasing the wide range of restaurants serving kebab styled food.

“I am delighted that Best Meat has been longlisted for the prestigious British Kebab Awards, which highlights their outstanding contribution to the UK kebab industry.
