Both stone reliefs have the image of kebabs. Both figures in the painting use special tools with two forks to skewer meat and put it on a tripod to barbecue and fan the fire, similar to kebabs of Xinjiang people today. The characters in the two paintings are both Han Chinese. Reveals the dietary customs in southern Shandong during the Eastern Han Dynasty. In this way, roast mutton first appeared not in Xinjiang but in the Central Plains, but in any case, the mutton skewers in Xinjiang are really famous now! It can be seen that people in different regions still have certain similarities in diet, and no one can resist the delicious food. However, after thousands of years of development, the mutton skewers in Xinjiang have gradually formed a brand effect. When I think of Xinjiang, no matter where I am, I can always do business under the signboard of "Xinjiang mutton kebabs". Today, mutton kebabs have also created some new ways to eat: in Moyu, Kuqa, Urumqi and other places, "mutton kebabs with a length of 1 m" have appeared, which is called "Miltel Kawap" by the people. This kebab really lives up to its reputation. The drill is 70-80 cm long and the meat is big. When baking in the pit, you can bake more than a dozen strings at a time. It tastes fresh and delicious, and it is more enjoyable to eat, because this big string is all small seven or eight pieces of mutton skewers.
