I had been looking forward to making this since I love lamb, and I prepared and grilled it just as written. However, we found our lamb to be overpowering with the vinegar flavor. It was, however, very moist. I do like the idea of trying it with a pita and tzatziki sauce, though, and will make it that way, maybe watering down the vinegar marinade a little. Thanks for posting this, though -- I like trying foods I've never heard of or seen recipes for.

wow. this was far nicer than i expected to be honest. The marinade really tenderizes the meat (i used a deboned lamb shank) and leaves a great flavor. Im eating it with greek pita and a very garlicky tzatzike but it would be fabulous alone over rice as well.
