MacKenzie Posted November 13, 2015 Report Posted November 13, 2015 My spices are ready, bread crumbs, salt, pepper, onion powder, granulated garlic, hot paprika, oregano, and cayenne pepper. Ground the meat 3 times and kneaded in the spice mixture. Ready to smoke tomorrow.
tony b Posted November 13, 2015 Report Posted November 13, 2015 OK, I'll bite - what's the story behind the name?
MacKenzie Posted November 13, 2015 Author Report Posted November 13, 2015 That's what we call it here in the Maritime Provinces of Canada. eh. You may know it as, gyro meat.
MacKenzie Posted November 13, 2015 Author Report Posted November 13, 2015 What do you mean, tinyfish? No donair until I smoke this meat log. I hope I have some pita bread.
tony b Posted November 13, 2015 Report Posted November 13, 2015 What? You're not making the pita? Slipping, MacKenzie! 1
tinyfish Posted November 13, 2015 Report Posted November 13, 2015 I was hoping to see the finished shots.
PRippley Posted November 13, 2015 Report Posted November 13, 2015 Patience, I am guessing we will see the cook/smoke shots tomorrow, right MacK?😋
MacKenzie Posted November 13, 2015 Author Report Posted November 13, 2015 That's my game plan and I hope it all works out.
MacKenzie Posted November 14, 2015 Author Report Posted November 14, 2015 Getting closer to donair time Ready for Pebbles. On the grill- 1
MacKenzie Posted November 14, 2015 Author Report Posted November 14, 2015 PJ, you can count on it. Right now it's sitting with an internal temp of 147F and the grill is about 290F. The log has been on for 2.25 hours and looks wonderful and the smell is fantastic. I opened the lid to turn the log over and I wish I'd taken a pix.
ckreef Posted November 14, 2015 Report Posted November 14, 2015 I opened the lid to turn the log over and I wish I'd taken a pix. Yup at this point definitely tease status. Charles - Prometheus 16.5", Cassiopeia 19" TT
MacKenzie Posted November 14, 2015 Author Report Posted November 14, 2015 Just off the grill. Sliced the donair log- Starting to dress the donair, special sauce on the bottom, followed by donair meat, melted cheese, more sauce, sweet onions, and tomatoes. A little more dressing, actually it is loaded. Here is the ultimate tease - 1
