venison
🥗Healthier: lean turkey
💰Cheaper: ground beef
Turkey is leaner, while ground beef is more affordable.
donair sauce
🥗Healthier: yogurt-based sauce
💰Cheaper: mayo-based sauce
Yogurt adds creaminess with fewer calories, while mayo is more cost-effective.
Put brown venison in the food processor.
Add all other ingredients to the food processor.
Turn on the food processor and mix until well combined.
If you don't have a food processor, knead the mixture like bread for 10 minutes.
Preheat the trigger grill smoker to 285°F.
Cook the meat until the internal temperature is between 150°F and 160°F.
Let the meat cool to room temperature and refrigerate before slicing (overnight recommended).
Assemble the donair by placing the meat on pita bread, adding donaire sauce and tomatoes, and optionally lettuce.
