Method 2: Our family makes up a marinade of lemon juice and good quality
  olive oil, oregano and/or thyme, pepper, crushed garlic & maybe a little
  dry white wine.  Marinate the pork overnight, then grill til just cooked,
  not dry.  Eat as is, straight from the skewers, or remove meat and serve
  in pita bread pockets, with tomato wedges, onion slices, and Tzatziki,
  passing salt and additional freshly ground black pepper.
