Post by: Scallywag on November 21, 2012, 10:20:30 PM

Had a craving.. you all might think I'm nuts..
(http://i1087.photobucket.com/albums/j463/arenwhite73/IMG_4195.jpg)Called for onion powder.. I had none so I pureed some onions and dried them with some paper towels.. close enough(http://i1087.photobucket.com/albums/j463/arenwhite73/IMG_4197.jpg)
Spices mixed up(http://i1087.photobucket.com/albums/j463/arenwhite73/IMG_4198.jpg)
Now this called to beat the meat really well... pound it and knead it.. well ok I'm good at that!
Rolled into a log(http://i1087.photobucket.com/albums/j463/arenwhite73/IMG_4199.jpg)
Smoke for 20 mins and 350 till it hits 170 IT(http://i1087.photobucket.com/albums/j463/arenwhite73/IMG_4200.jpg)

We spent two days in Halifax last month but SWMBO was so focused on lobster that we never even considered a donair.  Might have to try making my own.  Only problem there is that it seems there are hundreds (or more) regional variations worldwide and since I don't think I've got enough time left to try them all I need a plan on how to rate them in order of precedence.

That is interesting to say the least.

When we were in New Brunswick a couple of years ago, like the turtle, it was all about the seafood.
