Let’s address the elephant in the room. You’ve heard the whispers. “It’s mystery meat!” “It’s leftovers!” Listen, I get the fear. But that smooth, uniform texture you see on the spit? That’s intentional. It’s not a weird science experiment.
That texture comes from grinding the meat finely and mixing it with breadcrumbs, herbs, and sometimes egg. Think of it as a seasoned meatloaf on a stick. A very, very tall stick. And it’s cooked on a rotisserie for hours, so the outside gets crispy while the inside stays juicy.
So, is it processed? Sure, a little. But it’s not the stuff of nightmares. It’s mostly just meat and spice. Nothing to lose sleep over.
