Besides looking awesome, I couldn't help but notice the cultural mash-up of an American cooking Greek cuisine using the recipe of a Canadian of Indian descent. In today's world, that's practically an act of rebellion! So here I am stickin' it to the man with my own cook.

Not spinning it, but did smoke with a bit of coffee wood. On it goes.

Gotta have fresh pita.

Plated with an Israeli couscous salad, just to mash cultures further.

Fantastic cook, looks awesome but what about the donair sauce. It is another Canadian connection.emoji41.png

We did homemade tzatziki, which is the cucumber dill sauce you see on the pita.

My wife made the salad, and it went perfectly with this. Everyone but my daughter agreed these were the best gyros we've had, but she's 17 and stickin' it to the man in her own way...

Yes, I just spotted it. Thanks. :) I'm afraid I love the donair sauce that we Nova Scotians make and I put gobs and gobs of it on my donairs.

Do you have a recipe for donair sauce you'd be willing to share? :)

I'm thinking these OctoForks would be a great way to spin some Chicken Shawarma, stacking boneless, skinless thighs. A doanair sauce might be just the thing for that.

Great looking gyro cook. A couple of weeks ago I mixed up a batch of meat then rolled them into 2 smaller rolls and popped them in the freezer for week night cooks. Mrs skreef bought cucumbers yesterday so looks like I'll be cooking one within the next few days.

HalfSmoke, this is the one I use most often, easy, tasty and keeps. :) 

Donair Sauce

  • 2/3 cup canned sweetened condensed milk  1 can

  • 1/4 cup white vinegar 3/8C

  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder 3/4t

  • Mix using a whisk until it thickens, store in fridge until ready to use.

Enjoy. :)
