Kebabs are a camel meat delicacy which can be purchased in Al Kharid and Keldagrim-East for 1 coin each, or at Pollnivneach for 3 coins each. The Drunken Dwarf, Mysterious Old Man, Sandwich Lady, and Rick Turpentine random events may also grant the player a free kebab.

Unlike normal food which restores a fixed amount of Hitpoints, kebabs have varied healing quantities when consumed. A player with 86–99 Hitpoints can expect to be healed 11 health on average.

Kebabs cannot be made through the Cooking skill. They can be used on a compost bin to make regular compost.

(Update)

Kebabs can no longer reduce your Hitpoints and will affect a different skill instead.

Trivia

  • It is implied that the kebabs are made from camel meat.
    • Ali the Camel Man in Pollnivneach reveals about his discount camel store that "They're not just a source of kebab meat you know!"
    • When using the "Talk-to Camel", the player character can quote "Mmm... looks like that camel would make a nice kebab."
  • Eating kebabs is the only method of temporarily boosting one's Attack level in a free-to-play server (albeit very rarely).
  • Kebabs originally had a chance of dealing damage to the player's hitpoints as an adverse effect; however, this feature was removed to prevent players from being killed inadvertently.
  • Kebabs in Old School RuneScape are specifically based on the real-life doner kebab, originating from Turkey, sometimes stuffed into pitta bread as with the player-made ugthanki kebab, and a popular street food in the United Kingdom, where the Jagex office is based.
