But What is Meat Shawarma & Where Does it Come From?
Shawarma, a popular street food in the Middle East, originated in Turkey and consists of sliced, spit-roasted layers of lamb, beef, or other meat that is frequently wrapped in or served with pita. Shawarma is made using meat that is moist and tender because it is cooked on a rotating vertical spit in a rotisserie oven, effectively basting itself in its own juices.
Shawarma, also known as shawurma or shawerma and meaning “turning” in Arabic, is a Levantine meat preparation that dates back to the Ottoman Empire (roughly modern-day Turkey) in the 18th or 19th century. It is made by stacking thin slices of lamb, chicken, beef, or mixed meats in the shape of a cone on a vertical rotisserie.
