This is an adaptation of Alton Brown's Gyro meat recipe. His Tzatziki sauce is really good too. Google "Alton Brown Gyro" if interested.1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 pounds ground lamb
1 egg
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon dried marjoram
1 tablespoon dried ground rosemary
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Mix all ingredients by hand in a large bowl.
Form a normal loaf and place in an aluminum bake pan. Dont use the pan as a form. Use a shallow one larger than the loaf.
I hickory smoked 2 hrs @ 225 deg and finished in the oven at 325.
Pull at 160-165 and let rest before slicing.
Enjoy as a meatloaf or Gyro style sandwiches with Tzatziki sauce.
