A few months ago I purchased a propane powered vertical rotisserie to make some gyros and it has been great.
I have made beef and lamb, lamb, chicken and lamb and chicken gyros and they have all came out amazingly well.
This is for just lamb to get you started.
Leg of Lamb
1 large cumber
2 large vine ripened tomatoes
1 large red onion
Extra Virgin olive oil
Garlic powder (2 Table Spoons)
Oregano (1 teaspoon)
Rosemary (1 teaspoon)
Lemon (Juice it)
Salt ( 1 teaspoon)
Pepper ( 1 teaspoon)
Pita bread ( I buy from Costco premade)
Tzatziki sauce from Costco is better than what I make
Cut the tomatoes, Cucumber and onion into medium size chunks and set aside.
Slice the lamb into 1/2" wide slabs doing your best to get the widest pieces possible
marinate the lamb with the seasonings and 1 tablespoon of EVOO for a few hours.
You can cook the lamb in an oven but if you can get a vertical rotisserie it will be better.
Cook on the rotisserie until the outsides are crisp. Stop it and slice of the edges.
Turn and stop until you get all the way around then continue cooking.
Keep this up until you reach the center.
