I committed some more culinary heresy. I was in the mood for souvlaki, but all I could find in my freezer were pork shoulders. So I cut that in large chunks, browned and braised them with oregano, garlic and lemon(chix stock mostly, but the flavorings are the focus). Let them cool some and threaded them on skewers for a quick grill for color and flavor while the braising left them tender. Not true to the dish but pretty good anyway.
Had lemon rice pilaf, some carrots and some pita with olive oil and zaatar.
