Weigh out the oregano and cumin and add to the bacon and onion mixture in a bowl. Salt and pepper and mix everything well to a creamy mass. Brush the meat slices on both sides with this spice marinade, layer them tightly on top of each other and leave to marinate overnight.

Brush each layer of meat that is put on the skewer with the spice mixture again! In order to trim the gyros skewer into shape, the protruding meat tips are cut off with a sharp knife. These cut pieces are inserted between the meat slices. The meat slices must be placed so that each layer forms a closed circle. Finally
