/ck/ - Food & Cooking

Why do they spin the meat vertically? Wouldn't it make more sense to spin horizontally so that all the juices don't pool at the bottom?

please can SOMEONE tell me the difference between a kebab, a gyro, a doner kebab, a donair, a shish kebab, and shwarma? its driving me insane and i cannot bridge the cultural gap between these rotisseried fast foods.

i go to the kebab place and ask for a doner kebab, and i get a pitta bread full of processed lamb and salad with garlic and chilli sauce. What are all these other things people discuss, and what varies between them?
