A few recent posts on shawarma got me craving some. Shawarma isn't made with pork so I thought with the exception of the spices it'd be al pastor. So, I decided on three meats. :loco:
Made the rub
Pork
Lamb
Beef
Sliced some pieces off each like so
Into the marinade overnight
Next day. Smelled crazy good already
Shawarma is traditionally cooked on a vertical spit, meats shaved off and served to order. Since I don't have a vertical rotisserie I used my turkey hanger to tackle the job with a half onion at the bottom
Then I got the stacking on the meat with one of each in a rotating order and this is what she looked like :becky:
Hung it in the Hunsaker
Made tahini sauce
And Tunisian style harissa sauce
After a couple of hours it was time to peek
:thumb::thumb::thumb:
At this point it was time to start making shawarma wraps by shaving off the first layer or two. First warmed up some pita bread
Lettuce, tomato, onions, tahini sauce, harissa sauce and pickles :clap2:
Insanely good
After a few wraps and drinks I decided to do a wrap with a tortilla
I had the Hunsaker keep the shawarma slowly cooking and holding in the meantime
Basically replicating the vertical spit and shaving off the meat and making wraps as requested
Same deal with the tortilla
Lightly toasted
After all said and done I have leftovers which I shaved up and saved for the next few days :thumb:
It came out extremely well so I don't mind having leftover for days. Thanks for looking!
