BBQ Grilled Vegan Shawarma

BBQ Grilled Vegan Shawarma is a Middle Eastern-inspired dish that combines the spices of classic shawarma with the meaty texture of grilled jackfruit. The BBQ sauce and spices create a perfect harmony, while grilling provides a slightly crispy exterior. This dish is an ideal choice for a quick dinner or a weekend barbecue. If you want to make it even more special, try serving it with fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, and red onions.
