pound ground lamb  
/2 cup very finely chopped (or shredded) onion  
teaspoons fresh minced garlic  
/4 teaspoon salt (preferably sea salt)  
/2 teaspoon dried ground marjoram  
/2 teaspoon dried ground rosemary  
/4 teaspoon black pepper  
Mix everything together and let sit in the fridge for 1−2 hours.  
Blend in a food processor for about 1 minute. (When cooked, this will help give it a more traditional  
gyro feel on your palate. Otherwise, it just takes like cooked minced meat.)  
Form into an oblong around a spit, and slow cook over a grill for around 30−45 minutes, cooking far  
from the coals, and rotating slowly. Alternatively, bake in the oven in a meatloaf shape for about 45  
minutes to 1 hour, at 325 degrees F. It should be a bit dry.
