In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, lamb, and pork.
Add the finely grated onion and minced garlic to the meat mixture.
Season the mixture with paprika, ground black pepper, salt, and baking soda.
Pour the sparkling water into the bowl and mix all ingredients thoroughly using your hands until well combined.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld.
Preheat your grill or grilling pan to medium-high heat.
Using your hands, shape the meat mixture into cigar-shaped sausages, each about 3 inches long and 1 inch thick.
Brush each cevapcici lightly with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Grill the cevapcici for about 4-5 minutes on each side, turning carefully, until they are well browned and cooked through.
Serve the gluten-free cevapcici hot with your choice of gluten-free sides such as gluten-free flatbread, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad.
