A DORSET kebab house is in line to pick up a top gong at the British Kebab Awards today.

Britain’s prima doners have been revealed as chefs prepare to do battle to be crowned British Kebab Awards kings.

Jerry’s in Blandford Forum has been shortlisted in the Just Eat Best Delivery category.

This year’s shortlisted shish are competing for prizes in 15 categories from Best Kebab Van to Best Newcomer and Best Fine Dining ahead of the fifth annual awards ceremony.

Members of the public were invited to nominate their favourite kebab shops.

The winners will be crowned next week after a final round of judging by the British Kebab Awards judges.

The British Kebab Awards was established by the Centre for Turkey Studies (CEFTUS) and its founder Ibrahim Dogus in 2013.

Ibrahim Dogus said: “I’m so proud of the British Kebab Awards as it celebrates its fifth birthday this year. Year on year we see fiercer contests between the best kebab chefs in the country all battling to be crowned kebab kings. Brits just can’t get enough of kebabs.”

The kebab industry to the British economy is worth more than £2.8billion a year, supporting around 200,000 jobs.

Every day 1.3m kebabs are sold across Britain.

There are now over 20,000 kebab outlets in the UK.
