**Ingredients**
  * 8 (10-inch) flat wooden skewers
  * 3 firm white bread slices, torn into small pieces
  * 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
  * 1/2 cup finely chopped yellow onion
  * 1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
  * 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
  * 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
  * 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  * 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
  * 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
  * 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  * 1/2 teaspoon ground red pepper
  * Vegetable cooking spray

**Preparation**

1. Soak skewers in water 30 minutes. Meanwhile, place bread and water to cover in a small bowl; let stand 10 minutes. Using hands, squeeze excess liquid from bread; transfer bread to a large bowl. Stir in beef and next 9 ingredients.

2. Coat cold grill grate with cooking spray. Preheat grill to 400° (medium-high) heat. Divide ground beef mixture into 8 portions, and chill 10 minutes. Press and flatten each portion around a skewer, forming a 4- to 5-inch oval.

3. Grill, covered with grill lid, 7 to 8 minutes or until golden brown, turning once. Serve warm with pita rounds, Yogurt-Tahini Sauce, and Herbed Cucumber-and-Tomato Salad.

4. If you've got it, glaze the kabobs with the liquid from [[http://www.telltronics.org/w/doku.php?id=recipies:candied_jalapenos|candied jalapenos]]. 

**MAKE IT AHEAD** Prepare these kabobs up to two days in advance, and store in the fridge. Pop them on the grill just before you're ready to serve.
