This is a dish I really enjoy but some reason have never made. Seems pretty simple but would like the board input on any tried and true recipes. Thanks in advance.

Legit baked kibbeh is a gigantic pain in the arse to make just like most super labor intensive labanese dishes.
My grandfather was Lebanese so I learned to make stuffed grape leaves and tabouleh from my grandmother who cooked that stuff all the time.
My dad learned to make kibbeh from her but I never attempted it before he passed.
Unlike the recipe linked above, I know we'd use super lean meat (we'd order it special from a butcher to get all the fat trimmed off), then add in fat via olive oil during the cooking process.
I also remember that keeping the meat super cold while mixing the ingredients in was key. I think we'd mix it in a bowl that was submerged in ice water.
Hell it's been 7 years since I've seen it done.
