The city of Burdur is known for its distinct variant of shish kofta known as Burdur şiş,[5] which is traditionally made with minced goat meat (or more commonly with beef today),[6] with salt but no spices or herbs, and eaten with special type of pita bread.[7] Burdur şiş was officially recognised as a distinct variant of shish kofta by the Turkish Patent and Trademark Office in 2010.[8]
