Another Gyros
I have this frequently in Greece and here in the U.S., but as I have said, I view it as a 'deli' item. Krinos Foods has a 'gyros kit' that is sold in the frozen food section of some supermarkets.

Make fingers of meat (about 5-inches longer and not over 2-inches in diameter).
Place fingers on skewer spacing about 1-inch apart.
Cook over hot coals for 10 to 15 minutes, turning frequently until cooked through.
You may wrap the fingers on the skewer with sliced bacon. If anyone tries this, let me know how it works out.
