      Yield: 6 servings
 
      2 lb Lean ground lamb
      2 sl Homemade bread, toasted and
           -crumbled
      1 ts Allspice, crushed
      1 ts Coriander seed, crushed
      1    Clove garlic, pressed
      1    Onion, grated
      1 ts Fresh savory, chopped
           Salt, to taste
           Freshly ground pepper, to
           -taste
           Bacon slices (optional)
 
  In large bowl, combined all ingredients.  Mix well, kneading until
  mixture is stiff.  Make fingers of meat (about 5-inches longer and
  not over 2-inches in diameter). Place fingers on skewer spacing about
  1-inch apart. Cook over hot coals for 10 to 15 minutes, turning
  frequently until cooked through.
  
  You may wrap the "fingers" on the skewer with sliced bacon.  If anyone
  tries this, let me know how it works out.
  
  NOTE:  I have this frequently in Greece and here in the U.S., but as
  I have said, I view it as a "deli" item.  Krinos Foods has a "gyros
  kit" that is sold in the frozen food section of some supermarkets.
