Gyro Meat

• 1 lb ground lamb
• 1 lb ground beef or more lamb ( I just use lamb)
• ¼ medium onion
• 4 cloves garlic minced
• 1 tablespoon dried marjoram
• 1 ½ teaspoon cumin
• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
• 2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

• Preheat the oven to 325ºF and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Add the ground meat to a large bowl. Grate the onion on the large holes of a grater right into the bowl. Add the garlic, marjoram, cumin, salt, and pepper.
• Use your hands to work the ingredients together, squeezing the meat together really well. Form into a long flat loaf, about 4 by 10 inches.
• Bake 30 to 40 minutes, or until the center of the loaf reaches 160ºF on an instant read thermometer. Let cool completely.
• Use a sharp knife to slice the loaf into thin slices, no thicker than ¼ inch. Add a small amount of oil to a pan over medium high heat and sear the slices quickly on each side, about 1 minute.
