Can’t go wrong with lamb. Can’t go wrong with Meat Church!

@BrettWilliamson Год назад

Lamb is massive in Australia and New Zealand. A very classic flavour combo is garlic, rosemary and mint. You can glaze it will some Balsamic glaze when it's close to being cooked if you wish. Bloody beautiful when cooked lower and longer.

@pacman_17 Год назад

I wish lamb is more popular in the US. So farmers would raise them domestically. It's a great alternative to beef, pork, and chicken.

@lowdownone Год назад

One reason folks don’t like lamb is because most of it is New Zealand or Australian. Those are wild grass fed first. While it may be healthier they are very gamey and earthy. American lamb is raised to be eaten. You can definitely taste the difference and is probably more palatable to folks. I like it better, but it’s harder to find.

@Daldidal1 11 месяцев назад

@lowdownone Agreed. Welsh Lamb is heaven on a plate even though it's grass fed. Different grass, much sweeter flavor. Of course, almost nonexistent here.

@melvingibson4525 8 месяцев назад

Lamb used to be more popular in beef here in the United States because it is much easier and cheaper to produce and with less land

@MarcGKiwi Месяц назад

@@lowdownone lol if you think NZ lamb is gamey then you don't like the taste of meat.

Man, just when I already had my weekend smoke plan you drop a new one on me. My daughter watching with me as always adds her nugget: “Dad. DO IT, lamb leg on tortilla has to be good!” 😂 thank you again!

@markarakers Год назад

We make our own yogurt. We strain it so it’s very, very thick. The thick yogurt helps so much when we make tzatziki at home. Even if you don’t make your own yogurt, try straining it with a cheese cloth prior to making your tzatziki.

@michaelblack4993 Год назад

Just a little advice, take a hot skillet with some olive oil throw your pita in the thing for about a minute per side you’re gonna get this nice brown crispy texture on the outside. Seriously it will take it to the next level.

@shotsfired2188 Год назад

I wish more people understood how cool and just amazing it is him and Meyhem Lauren cooked together 😂 I need you to get AB on the show! Anyways Amazing cook as always Matt !

@steelfist9994 Год назад

I understand 🔥

@tommygun83 Год назад

Looks amazing Matt. We have a huge Greek community in South Australia and Yiros is a delicacy in Adelaide. Traditionally, the lamb leg is cut into steaks then marinated in olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, cumin, paprika and salt an pepper and marinated overnight. Layer steaks onto a rotisserie skewer tightly with a gyro disc on either end, then cook on a rotisserie at 350 - 400f over open coals so the fat dripping into the charcoal smokes the meat. As the outside browns and cooks, keep cutting slices into a pan to expose the uncooked meat and continue the process. Best lamb you'll ever eat!!!

@natebifulk304 Год назад

Love how you always relate the video back to the viewers. Thanks Matt!

@johnlankford9462 Год назад

Matt, two things. 1) my cook has improved greatly since watching you and using your products! 2) based on your two videos with him, last weekend we loaded up the truck and traveled to Dayne's Craft Barbecue. We were not disappointed. His pulled pork was some of the best we have had. We spoke with him and he told us he bufferflies his pork prior to cooking. If you need an idea for a video, how about a butterflied pork butt? Thanks!

@jasonhollinger9513 Год назад

“I’ve never made lamb”…is something I will soon not be able to say. Thanks for the tips. That looked amazing. You just can’t go wrong with a Meat Church cooking episode, especially when it involves a choice of meat that I’ve never cooked before.

I really needed this a few weeks ago around Greek Easter. Wish I had known then about finishing it the way you did. Next time for sure. Thanks for pulling this one together Matt.

@beka4780 Год назад

Every week a perfect meal! Thank you Matt!!!

@scottd3995 Год назад

Being in Australia and having a big greek population, we cook Lamb a lot. So good to see people around the world switching on to it! For a quicker, smaller lamb fix I often do little lamb rumps. Smoke and reverse sear them and slice them real thin with a brisket knife. So good for mid week.

@bobhawkey3783 Год назад

Excellent as always! Just got my smoker assembled and seasoned! Looking forward to trying a bunch of Meat Church rubs and recipes. Thanks for doing what you do.

@BradGibbons-bm5jo Год назад

Matt, that looks INCREDIBLE! If you have some leftovers, throw some seasoned French fries in your next gyro for more of a street food feel. You won't be mad at it!

@craigluhr7243 9 месяцев назад

I'm from Texas and live in the Middle East. I smoke lamb as much as I do beef. You should try lamb Shoulder for pulled lamb, and try smoked lamb shank instead of traditional braised lamb shank. Give lamb Shoulder and shank a try. I use olive wood as it is more available than Oak. Thanks for your videos.

@delbridge11l Год назад

I’ve been looking for years trying to find a recipe to make the plunge into the gyro world and you did it again! I’m mad with you it looks to easy to take this long!

We love our lamb here in Australia, and since I have started to smoke it’s been on regular rotation in our house

@lnfiniti23 Год назад

Awesome video! I love lamb gyros. Can’t wait to make this! Try adding the Greek Kalamata olives next time. Those olives will compliment your homemade tzatziki sauce and that feta cheese really well. 😃

Great stuff Matt. I love to see American BBQ incorporating lamb a little more into the repertoire. Try a little white or red wine in the tray one time. Leaves you with a great jus at the end. ❤

Just made this today. Incredible. Best thing to come out of my smoker.

@camiloamezquita5090 Год назад

I did a trial run with a small boneless one that I found at Trader Joe's, and I will say this is one of the best cooks I've done so far. My wife and daughter, who weren't crazy about eating lamb, absolutely loved it and have requested another one 😂 Next one will be with a full bone-in leg. Thank you Matt for putting out great recipes like this!

Awesome. I could not find the bone in lamb leg but found a boneless leg of lamb from Aldi that was pre-seasoned with rosemary and garlie. I added removed the wrapping that it came with and added a binder and some extra seasoning. I did do some extra trimming to remove that hard fat. Came out great! Love the channel.

I haven't had lamb Matt but after watching your cooking video l feel that l will try some. I love using Holy Cow and l also have The Gospel rub too that is also awesome 👍.

@Gerry6376 Год назад

We travel full time in a motor home and pull a Jeep. I have always had a out door kitchen at our Sticks and Bricks home. We sold everything a couple years ago. Now I buy a cheap off set smoker and use it for a few months and give it away when we leave. The two places that we spend the most time is Michigan in the summer and Texas in the Winter. I always make the typical mods to seal the smoker.

Excellent recipe. One thing I like to do with my tzatziki is after chopping up the cucumber, I put it in a towel and squeeze out the water. I also add a little cream or olive oil to make it a little oozier.
