Turkey kofta kebabs & Fire Wire mushrooms

My wife wanted something a little healthier & prepared some turkey kofta kebabs following a healthier recipe she found here: http://www.skinnytaste.com/2011/05/persian-turkey-kofta-kebabs.html.
We had made these once before and I recalled them tasting too light on seasoning so I added 1/4 tsp of Todd's Dirt Rub and 1/4 tsp of DP Tsunami Spin. Cooked them on the Small Egg at around 425:
My MIL had given us a pack of mushrooms so we decided to use this recipe ( http://www.mountainviewmushrooms.com/RecipeView.asp?RecipeID=35 ) stick them on a Fire Wire grilling skewer and quickly cook them on the Egg:
The mushrooms were good & I really sure use the flexible skewers more often. The kebabs were better than last time but still a little lacking in flavor (or perhaps too heathy tasting for me).

Those look really good and a nice healthy alternative to having chicken all the time. I will have to give them a try!I just got a firewire a couple weekends ago. It is perfect for the small egg, actually any egg since you are in control of the size of it.Large & Small BGE, CGW Two-Tier Swing Rack for BOTH EGGS, Spider for the Wok, eggCARTen & and Cedar Pergola my Eggs call home in Edmond, OK.

@Solson005 & @SkinnyV - I agree with Solson on the Fire Wire flexibility being great for usage on the smaller Eggs.XL, Large, Small, Mini Eggs, Shirley Fabrication 24x36 Patio, Humphrey's Weekender, Karubecue C-60, MAK 1-Star General, Hasty Bake Gourmet, Santa Maria Grill, Webers: 14" WSM, 22.5" OTG, 22.5" Kettle Premium, WGA Charcoal, Summit S-620 NG

Looks great. I love kofta. Here is another recipe you may want to try. In think the spices are just right. For the meat, I usually use lamb, but you can use any ground meat.
