Directions:

1. Cevapcici mixture:

1.1.

1.1.1. Preheat a pot on medium-high heat with 2 TBSP of frying oil and add:

1 medium onion – finely chopped

Sauté with occasional stirring until glossy (about 3 – 4 minutes).

1.1.2.

Then, take the pot off the stove and let it partially cool while proceeding with the next step.

1.2.

1.2.1. Add into the mixing bowl:

1 LB of ground beef

2. Form cevapcici:

Note:
Work one-by-one.

2.1. Scoop a portion of the meat by using a 4 FL OZ disher or hands and scale.

Note:
If you use a scale, ensure that each portion is 4.5 OZ (equivalent to 4 FL OZ thanks to higher density).

3. Optional cooling before grilling only:

3.1. To ensure that cevapcici will nicely hold together and not fall apart during further grilling, it is best to place it in the freezer for about 10 – 15 minutes.

Notes:

  • This step is optional, and you can grill cevapcici right after preparing the mixture—it may just be slightly more challenging.
  • If you are performing this optional step, place it in the freezer on the baking sheet.

4. Set oven to 350°F or preheat a grill.

5. Roast or grill:

5.1. When the oven or grill is fully preheated, place it in and cook until fully cooked * (usually about 15 – 20 minutes based on the thickness of the cevapcici).

Important:

  • Oven roasting – leave it on the baking sheet with parchment paper during preparation.
  • Grilling – place each one by one on the grill (do not prepare on a baking sheet)

5.2.

Turn once in the middle of the oven, roasting and/or turning 4x during grill preparation (each side should be grilled for a few minutes).

6. Serving:

6.1.

Serve warm or cold.

6.2. Serve with mashed or boiled potatoes and mustard, or make it even more special with homemade tartar sauce.

Tip:
Optionally, it also serves as a sandwich with fresh sliced onion and mustard.

* Check with a food thermometer to make sure that you have reached the minimum recommended safe serving temperature for ground meat of 160°F.
