Time 9h45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound ground beef chuck (80% lean)
1 pound boneless lamb chops, cubed
1 cup minced onion
4 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon ground marjoram
1 ½ teaspoons ground rosemary
2 teaspoons sea salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Grind the ground chuck and lamb cubes through the coarse plate of a meat grinder twice to mix thoroughly. Place the onion, garlic, marjoram, rosemary, salt, and pepper into a food processor, and pulse until finely ground. Mix together the ground meat and onion mixture in a bowl. Regrind through a fine plate, and pack the mixture into a 3x7 inch loaf pan. Wrap tightly with plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight.
  • Preheat an oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  • Remove and discard the plastic wrap from the loaf pan, and bake the gyro meat in the preheated oven until the internal temperature reaches 140 degrees F (60 degrees C), about 1 hour. Drain away all of the liquid that has accumulated in the pan, then remove the loaf from the pan. Place the meat on a rack set above a baking dish to catch the drips, and continue baking until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F (75 degrees C), 15 to 30 minutes more. Remove from the oven, and allow to stand 15 minutes before slicing. The finished loaf should be firm and somewhat dry.

Tips:

  • Use a meat grinder with a fine blade to grind the beef and lamb for the gyro meat. This will help ensure that the meat is evenly ground and will cook evenly.
  • If you don't have a meat grinder, you can also purchase pre-ground beef and lamb.
  • Be sure to mix the spices and herbs into the meat mixture thoroughly. This will help to flavor the meat throughout.
  • Form the meat mixture into a loaf shape and place it on a baking sheet. Press the meat loaf down firmly so that it is compact.
  • Bake the meat loaf in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the meat loaf cool slightly before slicing it. This will help to prevent it from falling apart.
  • Serve the gyro meat with pita bread, tzatziki sauce, and your favorite toppings.
