This is basically the same recipe I used as the last lamb I did.

This was a test for my buddies anniversary in two weeks. Was spectacular!!!

Very nice, would love to have some smoked gyro, could you image going to lunch and finding a place that did this, gentle smoke of some cherry wood rolling over it and it slowly turns on the trompo? mmmmmmmmmm

I hear you D3 this is one of my favorites this gyro makes the meat log taste like S. And the rotisserie really makes a difference. Doing a swarma next beef lamb and pork all on one scure marinated then smoke roasted high heat ohhhh man!!

Those white boxes w/ the Jamaican flag are the pimento lump, but I didn't notice it was in stock right now ...
 
I went to check the Green Machine to see how it might compliment the meat, but I tried the DruBQ2 and I'm absolutely using that ...
 
I punted on the tzatziki ... only because I like Trader Joe's offering ... but I think I might doctor the store-bought tzatziki w/ a little bit of the Green Machine, and use the whole DruBQ2 packet on the leg of lamb ...
