GREEK GYRO MEAT - ROTISSERIE, GRILL OR OVEN RECIPE - FOOD.COM



Greek Gyro Meat - Rotisserie, Grill or Oven Recipe - Food.com image

We love Greek food, but Gyros are a true hit in my house! Most of the Gyros that we buy out are dry and the sauce never really tastes like it should. This is a fabulous recipe for those of us who love a REAL Gyro. It is flavor packed and very versatile. If you do not have lamb, you can substitute with finely ground hamburger. It will not be as authentic as the lamb Gyro, but the spices and seasonings used in this recipe will get you to where you are going! I serve this with recipe #296173. You can also wrap these up in foil and take along to a picnic or outing. UPDATE 07/25/08: I was given this recipe from a neighbor who used to live in our neighborhood and made this meat on his BBQ rotisserie. I had no idea it was an Alton Brown recipe until now. Please know this recipe was not posted in malice.

Total Time 1 hours 20 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 1 hours 5 minutes

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 lbs lamb, finely ground (hamburger can be substituted)
1 tablespoon garlic, finely minced
1 tablespoon dried marjoram
1 tablespoon dried rosemary, ground
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground

Steps:

  • Process the onion in a food processor for 10 to 15 seconds and turn out into the center of a tea towel. Gather up the ends of the towel and squeeze until almost all of the juice is removed. Discard juice.
  • Return the onion to the food processor and add the lamb, garlic, marjoram, rosemary, salt, and pepper and process until it is a fine paste, approximately 1 minute. Stop the processor as needed to scrape down sides of bowl.
  • To cook in the oven as a meatloaf, proceed as follows:.
  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Place the mixture into a loaf pan, making sure to press into the sides of the pan. Place the loaf pan into a water bath and bake for 60 to 75 minutes or until the mixture reaches 165 to 170 degrees F. Remove from the oven and drain off any fat. Place the loaf pan on a cooling rack and place a brick wrapped in aluminum foil directly on the surface of the meat and allow to sit for 15 to 20 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 175 degrees F. Slice and serve on warm pita bread with recipe #296173 sauce, chopped onion, tomatoes and shredded lettuce.
  • To cook on a Kitchen or BBQ Grill Rotisserie, proceed as follows:.
  • Form the meat mixture into a loaf shape and place on top of 2 overlapping pieces of plastic wrap that are at least 18 inches long. Roll the mixture in the plastic wrap tightly, making sure to remove any air pockets. Once the meat is completely rolled in the wrap, twist the ends of the plastic wrap until the surface of the wrap is tight. Store in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or up to overnight, to allow the mixture to firm up.
  • Preheat the grill to high. (Follow your Kitchen Rotisserie manual for time and temperature.).
  • Place the meat onto the rotisserie skewer. Place a double-thick piece of aluminum foil folded into a tray directly under the meat to catch any drippings. Cook on high for 15 minutes. Decrease the heat to medium and continue to cook for another 20 to 30 minutes or until the internal temperature of the meat reaches 165 degrees F. Turn off the heat and allow to continue to spin for another 10 to 15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 175 degrees.
  • Slice and serve on warm pita bread with recipe #296173 sauce, chopped onion, tomatoes, and shredded lettuce.

GREEK LAMB ROTISSERIE/GRILL METHODS RECIPE - FOOD.COM
This Greek-style marinade has strong flavors to complement the strong flavor of lamb. Buy a boneless leg that's been butterflied, or rolled and tied. Unroll it for the marinade to get in everywhere then re-rolling it for even cooking and tenderness. If you happen to buy it with the netting try to save the netting to replace it after marinating. You can grill this flat on the grill as well. This lamb sliced thin is great to make gyro's with!

  • Start by grilling the leg over a medium high direct heat to sear the surface. This will give the meat a crusty surface and add texture. Turn every 5 minutes to sear the surface evenly. On the rotisserie you won’t have to worry about this. Grill over this direct heat for about 15 minutes then move to indirect grilling and cut the temperature down to a medium heat. Watch for flare-ups during the direct grilling phase. The leg of lamb will need about 20 minutes per pound to cook so plan accordingly.
