Spiedies in Binghampton are usually lamb....especially at Sharkey's...a great dive bar back in the day(1972-1976).  After grilling it goes into a pita with some tzaziki.  Lots of garlic , olive oil, red wine vinegar and parsley.

I know that the originals were lamb but that is never available in supermarkets - including those in Binghamton (where I bought the beef ones we had for dinner). (I prefer pork but they were not available.) And traditionally, at least for the past 20 or so years since I have had them,  they are served in very soft Italian bread folded in two.  I prefer to omit the bread.
