Venison Gyros

I looove flatbread, but it is so expensive! This week I was craving some kind of flatbread sandwich but I couldn't bring myself to spend over 3 dollars on a package of 6 sweet, beautiful pieces of flatbread.

So I made my own. And it was goooood.


For the filling:
Take 1 pound of cubed venison steak and cut into strips. Drop into an oiled cast iron skillet or dutch oven and brown; add a couple of Tablespoons of flour and then stir in some broth (enough to barely cover the meat), and a little bit of Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and balsamic vinegar. Cover and transfer to a 300 degree oven for 1 hour. When the meat is halfway done, saute a thinly sliced onion. Just before serving, add some sliced mushrooms to the pan with the onions and saute for 3-4 minutes. (I think sliced bell peppers, cooked along with the onions, would be delicious in this also.)

For the bread (recipe from here):
Mix 4 cups flour, 2 Tablespoons rapid rise yeast, 2 tsp salt, and 2 tsp sugar. Stir in 1 3/4 cup hot water and 2 tsp oil. Mix and knead until smooth; cover and let rise for 10 minutes. Divide the dough into  6 pieces and roll out into 8 inch circles. Brush each side with a little oil and then cook, one at a time, in a heated cast iron skillet for 3-4 minutes per side.

Fill the bread with meat, onions, mushrooms, and cheese...

 And enjoy!
