Elevating Taste: Best Frozen Shami Kabab in Pakistan’s Flavorful Offerings

Shami kababs are made from ground meat, usually lamb or beef. The minced meat, flavored with spices is cooked with lentils and blended to perfection to create yummy Shami Kababs. Shami Kababs are the heart of any Eid dawat. These relishing, yummy minced meat flat balls are everyone’s favorite.  It can be served as a snack or as part of a main meal. I like serving it with daal chawal, or biryani, or by making some Shami Kabab sandwiches.No guest goes home sad whenever I serve hot Shami Kababs.

Without a doubt, making Shami Kababs at home can be tiring and long, but that does not mean I cannot enjoy this savory dish. I buy frozen ready-to-eat Shami Kababs, without spending hours in the kitchen.

In quest of finding flavorful Shami Kababs, I tried and rated the following brands based on variants available, packaging options, additives information, and availability.

My Tried and Test Frozen Shami Kababs

PK Shami Kababs

PK Beef Shami Kababs are made with minced beef meat, lentils, and spices. With no added harmful additives like preservatives and MSG, these are my top picks. Their great taste ensures no craving goes unsatisfied, and no added additives assures these are healthy bites for everyone in the family. Also, it is a great plus that they come in beef minced meat which most of the brands fail to provide.

K&N’s Chicken Shami Kababs

K&N’s Chicken Shami Kababs are free of any added preservatives, artificial colorants, and MSG. These kababs taste great and are surely a treat for any chicken lover. These are widely available at any local store and crowd pleasers for sure.

Dawn Chicken Shami Kabab

Dawn Chicken Shami Kababs are also free of any additives. These kababs are reasonably priced and taste yummy. I like to pair it with biryani and make a sandwich with it. With consistent taste every time, these never disappoint.

Menu Shami Kabab

Menu Shami Kababs are made with chicken, which I feel should be mentioned on the label. Though, the taste takes all the score, however, the ambiguity is quite off-setting, such as no mention of additives, or colorants.

Monsalwa Shami Kabab

Monsalwa Shami Kababs are a delight one cannot miss. Though with added permitted preservatives, I do feel the superior brands making Shami Kababs exist. These are no more than relishing treats for mouth and stomach, alike. Although, these are not widely available and provide only chicken variants.

Storing and Defrosting Tips

Whenever I am buying frozen Shami Kabab, I always check for additives such as MSG and preservatives to avoid long-term health concerns. After buying them, I store them in the refrigerator as soon as possible. To save them for later, I always defrost them properly to avoid any safety concerns. Once opened, I store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator and always read labels for cooking instructions before I start cooking.
