You haven’t heard of it cause the peeps that invented shawarma don’t eat pork.
For pork shawarma just get tacos al pastor!
Seriously, that’s how it started – Lebanese immigrants to Mexico cooking lamb shawarma.
Eventually it became its own thing and primarily made with pork.
The closest thing to pork shawarma is gyros
I have a buddy who’s family is orthodox Christian near Jerusalem and he told me there’s one guy he knows there that makes a pork shawarma and it’s unreal apparently
It’s rare because shawarma is an Arab dish. Arabs tend to be Muslim. I’m half Arab. I’m not Muslim, so this made me giggle. I’d gladly have one. It looks great
Haram
What makes this shawarma?
That’s not a schwarma. That’s an abomination. Does look good though.
I want! Omg that looks absolutely delicious
