Pit #10

Yes boss! Pit is 10 issues old and we have brought in a heavyweight theme to celebrate: kebabs. We take a typically part-serious part-silly look at one of the world’s most beloved foodstuffs – ingredients on a stick. Who invented the first kebab? Food historian Demet Güzey skewers the truth. Can our columnist Big Has grill dessert? We find out. What even is a kebab? Jonathan Nunn investigates.

There’s an original short story from fiction author Will Wiles, some glorious illustrations from Reena Makwana and excursions through Ghana, Taipei, Turkey and north London. Plus much more!
