Arrosticini Abruzzese (Mutton Skewers)

Made from aged mutton these are a true regional delicacy from the Abruzzo region of Italy, arrosticini are a staple skewer (or spiedino), which has a rich shepherding history.

Traditionally, meaty and fatty pieces of mutton are threaded onto skewers, seasoned simply with salt, and grilled over charcoal on a long, narrow, channel-like grill. 

This is one of the only indulgences that Jesse allows himself. He simply can't understand why these skewers aren't a world-wide food staple... and has taken it upon himself to introduce Arrosticini to those who haven't yet tried them. We have taken a fully traditional approach and use only aged mutton which gives the deep rich flavour experiences that make Arrosticini so special.

Hand prepared here at Meatbox and tested thoroughly, tough job but someone has to do it, on our Aruzzese friends, these are a true delight that will soon become your firm favourite.

Each traditionally prepared skewer or Spiedino has around 10 x 1cm cubed morsels of mutton. Vacuum packed and ready to cook over white coals.
