GREEK PITAS WITH PULLED PORK
Both picky and adventurous eaters will go for this Mediterranean spin on pulled pork. Serve the meat wrapped in soft, whole-wheat pita bread topped with chopped fresh veggies, tangy feta cheese, and our creamy, herb-infused Tzatziki Sauce. If your people are picky, they'll still love the pulled pork just wrapped by itself in a warm pita.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, stir together the oregano, cumin, salt, black pepper, red pepper flakes, and garlic.
- Pat the pork shoulder dry with paper towels. If making in the Instant Pot, cut the pork into four equal pieces. Rub the seasoning mixture on all sides of the pork. (Freezing instructions begin here.)
- Place the pork, onion, and broth in the slow cooker or the Instant Pot. Slow Cooker Instructions: Cover and cook on Low for 7 to 9 hours or on High for 4 to 5 hours.
- Instant Pot Instructions: Lock and seal the lid. Cook at high pressure for 45 minutes. Allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes, then quick release the remaining pressure.
- Transfer the pork and onion to a cutting board and discard any liquid remaining in the cooker. Shred the meat, then return the meat and the onion to the cooker to keep them warm.
- Serve some shredded pork wrapped in a warm pita, topped with our Easy Tzatziki Sauce and your favorite Greek toppings.
- Slow Cooker Instructions: Thaw meal completely using one of these safe methods. Follow Steps 3 through 5.
- Instant Pot Instructions: Set the Instant Pot to "Sauté." Transfer the frozen meal to the pot and cook for 5 minutes to release some liquid. Press "Cancel." Follow Step 3b, but cook for 45 to 50 minutes. (The frozen meat will cook in about the same amount of time as fresh.) Follow Steps 4 and 5.

Steps:
- Process the onion in a food processor for 10 to 15 seconds and turn out into the center of a tea towel. Gather up the ends of the towel and squeeze until almost all of the juice is removed. Discard juice.
- Return the onion to the food processor and add the lamb, garlic, marjoram, rosemary, salt, and pepper and process until it is a fine paste, approximately 1 minute. Stop the processor as needed to scrape down sides of bowl.
- To cook in the oven as a meatloaf, proceed as follows:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- Place the mixture into a loaf pan, making sure to press into the sides of the pan. Place the loaf pan into a water bath and bake for 60 to 75 minutes or until the mixture reaches 165 to 170 degrees F. Remove from the oven and drain off any fat. Place the loaf pan on a cooling rack and place a brick wrapped in aluminum foil directly on the surface of the meat and allow to sit for 15 to 20 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 175 degrees F. Slice and serve on pita bread with tzatziki sauce, chopped onion, tomatoes and feta cheese.
- To cook on a rotisserie, proceed as follows:
- Form the meat mixture into a loaf shape and place on top of 2 overlapping pieces of plastic wrap that are at least 18 inches long. Roll the mixture in the plastic wrap tightly, making sure to remove any air pockets. Once the meat is completely rolled in the wrap, twist the ends of the plastic wrap until the surface of the wrap is tight. Store in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or up to overnight, to allow the mixture to firm up.
- Preheat the grill to high.
- Place the meat onto the rotisserie skewer. Place a double-thick piece of aluminum foil folded into a tray directly under the meat to catch any drippings. Cook on high for 15 minutes. Decrease the heat to medium and continue to cook for another 20 to 30 minutes or until the internal temperature of the meat reaches 165 degrees F. Turn off the heat and allow to continue to spin for another 10 to 15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 175 degrees. Slice and serve on pita bread with tzatziki sauce, chopped onion, tomatoes, and feta cheese.
- Place the yogurt in a tea towel, gather up the edges, suspend over a bowl, and drain for 2 hours in the refrigerator.
- Place the chopped cucumber in a tea towel and squeeze to remove the liquid; discard liquid. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the drained yogurt, cucumber, salt, garlic, olive oil, vinegar, and mint. Serve as a sauce for gyros. Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to a week.
- Yield: 1 1/2 cups
PORK TENDERLOIN PITA SANDWICHES
I adopted this recipe. I prepared it using Recipe #107646 for the spice rub and Recipe #51983 in the finished pitas. The seasoning was perfect and the tzatziki was the perfect complement. This will become a regular in my menu rotation.
