Another Gyros Recipe
   
Recipe Categories: Lamb Recipes
Average Rating: (3 votes)
Yield: 6 servings
 
Ingredients
  2  lb Lean ground lamb  
  2  sl Homemade bread, toasted and  
    -crumbled  
  1  ts Allspice, crushed  
  1  ts Coriander seed, crushed  
  1   Clove garlic, pressed  
  1   Onion, grated  
  1  ts Fresh savory, chopped  
    Salt, to taste  
    Freshly ground pepper, to  
    -taste  
    Bacon slices (optional)  
 
Instructions
 
  1. In large bowl, combined all ingredients. Mix well, kneading until mixture is stiff. Make fingers of meat (about 5-inches longer and not over 2-inches in diameter). Place fingers on skewer spacing about 1-inch apart. Cook over hot coals for 10 to 15 minutes, turning frequently until cooked through.

 
  2. You may wrap the "fingers" on the skewer with sliced bacon. If anyone tries this, let me know how it works out.

 
  NOTE: I have this frequently in Greece and here in the U.S., but as I have said, I view it as a "deli" item. Krinos Foods has a "gyros kit" that is sold in the frozen food section of some supermarkets.
