Sanmen beef skewers

Sanmen beef skewers originated in Sanmen town, Longsheng and are quite popular. The beef, typically from small yellow cattle, is skewered and grilled on the same day.

The meat slices are thin and evenly cut and marinated in a secret brine. The beef absorbs the rich flavor of the brine, ensuring that the skewers are not fishy or greasy but rather flavorful. Grilled over charcoal, these aromatic beef skewers tantalize your taste buds, becoming a staple at many late-night food stalls.
