Steps:
- Whisk together the olive oil, cumin, garlic, marjoram, rosemary, oregano, red wine vinegar, salt, and pepper in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add the venison strips, and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator at least 2 hours.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the venison strips, a half pound at a time, until the venison has browned on the outside and is no longer pink on the inside, about 8 minutes. Pile the meat onto warmed pitas to serve.

VENISON GYROS
We really liked this recipe, its great to throw the marinade together in the morning and its a matter of minutes to cook and assemble when you get home. I think the venison is a great (and cheap, if you know a hunter) substitute for lamb, especially in recipes like this where the meat is lightly cooked. Cook too much, though, and you will get some tough meat.

Steps:
- Combine dressing and set aside. This includes: yogurt, dill, garlic powder, and cucumber.
- In 12" nonstick skillet, heat oil.
- Add garlic, onions, venison, and oregano. Cook for 4-6 minutes.
- Make sure the meat is no longer pink. I like to leave the onions a little crunchy. I like to salt the meat a little at this time.
- Assemble the pitas and enjoy!
