GYRO LAMB MEAT RECIPES
TRADITIONAL GYRO MEAT RECIPE | ALLRECIPES
This Greek/Lebanese style meatloaf is sliced and served with pita bread, tzatziki, and tomatoes for a delicious gyro that is the closest I've come to emulating my favorite Mediterranean restaurant. The preparation time seems long, but most of it is resting time, so you can be doing other stuff! You can substitute pork or chicken for the ground lamb and beef if you prefer.

Steps:
- Place the onion in a food processor, and process until finely chopped. Scoop the onions onto the center of a towel, gather up the ends of the towel, and squeeze out the liquid from the onions. Place the onions into a mixing bowl along with the lamb and beef. Season with the garlic, oregano, cumin, marjoram, rosemary, thyme, black pepper, and salt. Mix well with your hands until well combined. Cover, and refrigerate 1 to 2 hours to allow the flavors to blend.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
- Place the meat mixture into the food processor, and pulse for about a minute until finely chopped and the mixture feels tacky. Pack the meat mixture into a 7x4 inch loaf pan, making sure there are no air pockets. Line a roasting pan with a damp kitchen towel. Place the loaf pan on the towel, inside the roasting pan, and place into the preheated oven. Fill the roasting pan with boiling water to reach halfway up the sides of the loaf pan.
- Bake until the gyro meat is no longer pink in the center, and the internal temperature registers 165 degrees F (75 degrees C) on a meat thermometer, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Pour off any accumulated fat, and allow to cool slightly before slicing thinly and serving.

- Put the lamb, herbs, harissa, garlic, olive oil, lemon zest and juice into a food bag or non-metallic bowl and mix to coat well. Close/cover and chill for at least 4hr, or overnight. In a small pan, mix the onion, chilli, vinegar, sugar and 1/2tsp salt and heat until just boiling. Remove from heat and set aside for 30min. Cover and chill until needed. Heat a griddle or frying pan over medium-high heat and cook the lamb (reserving any leftover marinade) for 3min per side, until charred and still pink in the centre (cook for longer if you prefer). Transfer to a plate and set aside to rest for a couple of minutes. Brush one side of the pittas with any remaining marinade and griddle, or fry, to heat through and soak up any extra cooking juices. Slice the lamb. Pile the lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, lamb, pickled onions on to the pittas, then drizzle with yogurt and chilli sauce. Sprinkle with extra herbs and serve.
