I have used them in gyros, but I like to just eat them right off the stick..Sam's club usually has the leg of lamb for about $10.00 a leg..
 
Nice very nice...luvs me some soulviki...Chicken is the meat of choice around here...I make a similar marinade but add some eggs...makes the chicken a real nice color... ;)

Actually BW it's pronounced Spiedini and it's mainly chicken with a light bread crumb coating seared in a sautee pan with a type of 'eyetalian' dressing then finished in the oven. The chicken is cut in 3"-4" cubes and there's only about 3 or 4 per skewer.

These are 2 different things.
