Not a joke, this is an actual recipe. My kids went to a Bedouin camp exhibit and everyone got a copy of this recipes(although not everyone got a taste). My translation into English. Who knows, next time you want to have a "different" type of barbeque, why not go for it?

Steamed the camel 4hrs in 72°C and the lamb 3hrs. The chickens need more time and higher temperature. Afer this the camel only needed 10hrs on the grill. For serving we took the camel of the spear and put the lamb back on. That way the lamb was for second servings and had by that time also gotten a crispy surface. We also had a small grill for giving some extra heat to eventual red meat we found, and thats a good advice for others trying this recipe. In adittion we stuck cloves from 30 garlics into the lamb and camel. A real good dinner.

    Here in the US, camel is difficult to come by. We finally located a camel source in the Mohave Desert. When we cooked this, we found the meats did not cook through sufficiently. Any suggestions? ROFL very funny recipe.

    Joke or not this IS very funny! Chef #176395 needs to lighten up - I doubt he/she actually TRIED this recipe, so a comment only with no stars is more appropriate. Thanks Mirj for posting.
