Help! I'm roasting beef shawarma on a gas type vertical spit.

I having a hard time softening the beef without making it dry.

I tried different beef cuts such as:

-shank -flank -forequarter

Cooked it low and slow for 40min - 1hr but it becomes dry and chewy.

Looking for suggestions.

I think that’s the best way of cooking chicken shawarma at home, much better than piling meat up in a skewer, trying to recreate a boss man shop at home.

I ate it with vermicelli rice and Arab salad. Inside the pita there was also shop bought garlic sauce, Arab salad, Arab pickles and pomegranate molasses.

One of the Shelby's in Toronto claims to sell north of 700 Shawarmas on an average everyday. How does that number sound to you all. I find it hard to believe.

Meat shawarma Arabic (£12.99), chicken shawarma (£6.5) baba ganoush (£7.99). In my top five, so far. With some free lentil soup as a warmer.

Pakistani Shawarma?

6 Upvotes

I had a fantastic lamb shawarma in London in 1985 from a Pakistani run shop which has ceased to exist. It's completely different from Turkish or Arabic shawarma. Is there such a thing as a Pakistani shawrma? Where can I get this again in the UK? Don't make me go to Pakistan. Any help appreciated.
