Xinjiang has a large area, and the barbecue in each region is not exactly the same. The advantage of eating barbecue in Urumqi is that you can eat different types of barbecue in various regions, and they are all super delicious. Today Ahu recommends There are several barbecue restaurants that I like very much, each with its own characteristics, but they are all worth a try!
1. Kashgar Charcoal BBQ
Ahu’s favorite is charcoal-grilled barbecue. The smoke from the smoke is the smell of charcoal grilling. One bite directly touches the soul, so the first restaurant I recommend is Kashi Charcoal BBQ. Kashgar charcoal barbecue is originally a special barbecue delicacy in Kashgar, Xinjiang. It uses the traditional charcoal grilling method, with fresh mutton pieces skewered on long bamboo skewers and coated with various seasonings such as salt, pepper, cumin, etc. Under the high temperature of the charcoal fire, the meat is grilled to a crispy exterior while still remaining tender and juicy on the inside.
Although this store is opened in Urumqi, it is a very authentic Kashgar charcoal barbecue. The charcoal used will be teak charcoal produced in Kashgar. It has a unique aroma and burning performance, providing a special flavor for barbecue. Flavor. The temperature and heat of the charcoal fire are properly controlled so that the meat is grilled to perfection.
This Kashgar charcoal barbecue restaurant also has private rooms, which is a good place to invite friends to dinner. Their barbecue is the original method, without too many seasonings. Then you can choose the weight of the meat according to the number of people. It is also the kind where a whole lamb is hung on the rack and you can choose it by yourself. After being roasted over charcoal fire, a layer of crispy skin is formed on the surface of the meat and the meat juice is locked in, making every bite full of rich meaty and roasted flavor. The addition of seasonings makes the meat more spicy and delicious, leaving people with endless aftertaste.
What’s more flexible is that they don’t have to give you a leg if you want to eat leg meat. There are 5 of us. We ordered nearly 3 kilograms of lamb chops and lamb legs. We didn’t finish them at all. The barbecue was burnt on the outside and burnt on the inside. Tender, especially fresh, with no mutton smell at all. Mainland friends can also get used to it. The grilled fish is also delicious, recommended~
We went there in the afternoon and sat in the small garden. The yard was a small area surrounded by fig trees. The evening breeze was quite comfortable. , parking is available at the door. If you want to take a taxi, I personally feel that the location is a bit remote. There is also fresh beer and fresh kvass in the store. In short, it is still quite authentic Xinjiang flavor. I wish you peace of mind.
2. Hotan Ailijiang Nangkeng Barbecue Restaurant
You must eat roasted lamb legs when you come to this restaurant, I beg you! The quality of mutton in Xinjiang is really not comparable to that in inland areas. Coupled with the buff of barbecue technology, this is the most delicious barbecue restaurant in many people's minds, or even one of them.
The special thing about roasted lamb leg is that it is cooked in an open fire roasting method. Set up a fire on a dedicated grill and light the charcoal to create a strong flame. Then hang the marinated lamb leg meat on the barbecue grill and use the indirect grilling method to slowly smoke the meat. Controlling the heat is very important. You need to ensure that the inside is cooked through and the outside is golden and crispy.
One bite, the meat is tender and juicy. After being roasted at a low temperature for a long time, the lamb becomes tender and the meat juice is still retained inside, making every bite memorable. After roasting, the lamb leg is golden in color, crispy on the skin, and more delicious in texture.
Every Xinjiang barbecue restaurant has its own unique seasoning recipe, and this one is the one that most people like. Commonly used seasonings such as cumin, pepper, salt, etc. give the mutton a rich aroma and spicy taste. These spices penetrate into the meat during the roasting process, making the roasted lamb leg more fragrant. It is located next to the market, and both streets are full of food. You can also go shopping after eating. Don’t look at the decoration of the store when eating. Ordinary small stores have the best taste~
3. Alimujiang Bazhou Road Barbecue Yellow Noodle King
This restaurant’s Liangpi Yellow Noodles It has been operating on this street for many years, and it is also a time-honored restaurant that locals love to visit. This barbecue restaurant is naturally excellent, but what Ah Hu wants to highlight is the yellow noodles. The difference between Xinjiang yellow noodles and ordinary noodles is that a small amount of alkaline water is added to Xinjiang yellow noodles to make the noodles appear yellow and increase the toughness and elasticity of the noodles.
Depending on your taste here, you can choose to eat yellow noodles/liangpi/jelly noodles/beef tendon noodles/gaodan noodles. Personally, I like the classic combination of yellow noodles and cold noodles the best. ?
Yellow noodles can be paired with a variety of dishes. It is most commonly paired with mutton, such as mutton stew, mutton fried noodles, etc. In addition, there are different flavors that can be paired with beef, chicken, vegetables, etc. But I think the most delicious thing is to pair it with barbecued meat, especially this restaurant’s barbecued meat with yellow noodles, it’s amazing!
The amount of cumin and chili pepper added to his barbecue is very subtle, and the oily aroma of the meat mixed with it creates a wonderful chemical reaction in the mouth. You can also try my favorite roasted lamb hearts and tendons. A barbecue restaurant recommended by Station B. The yellow noodle cold skin is super delicious (ten yuan a bowl). The grilled skewers are three yuan a skewer and the meat is super solid. On average, three people can only eat a few skewers each and they are easily full. It’s also very filling.
Anyway, there is an endless stream of people. Fortunately, we did not catch up with dinner time. It is very normal if there are no seats when dinner time comes, so you have to wait~
