Yes ! i found the it! The best Kefta kebab recipie!

In the simplest form, kefta consist of balls of minced or ground meat — usually be
ef or lamb — mixed with spices and/or onions.
some recipies ask for onions , some ask for raw miniced and some ask for sauted
onion.
in my opinion we should try both cuz raw onion may break the kebabs on the grill
but pan fried are ok!

About Bulgur Wheat ( i am Pretty sure we can find it in Speacialty stores)
Bulgur is a quick-cooking form of whole wheat that has been cleaned, parboiled,
dried, ground into particles and sifted into distinct sizes.
Making wheat into bulgur is an ancient process that originated in the Mediterran
ean region and has been an integral part of Middle Eastern cuisine for thousands
of years.
It may, in fact, be man's first "processed food."
In approximately 2,800 B.C., the Chinese emperor Shen Nung declared it one of fi
ve sacred crops along with rice, millet, barley and soybeans.
Biblical references indicate it was prepared by ancient Babylonians,
Hittites and Hebrew populations some 4,000 years ago, and Arab, Israeli, Egyptia
n, and Roman civilizations record eating dried cooked wheat as early as 1,000 B.
C.
