"tom" wrote We make this all the time: Tzatziki Sauce INGREDIENTS 2 (8 ounce) containers plain yogurt 2 cucumbers - peeled, seeded and diced 2 tablespoons olive oil 1/2 lemon, juiced salt and pepper to taste 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill 3 cloves garlic, peeled DIRECTIONS In a food processor or blender, combine yogurt, cucumber, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, dill and garlic. Process until well-combined. Transfer to a separate dish, cover and refrigerate for at least one hour for best flavor. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Souvlaki INGREDIENTS 1 lemon, juiced 1/4 cup olive oil 1/4 cup soy sauce 1 teaspoon dried oregano 3 cloves garlic, crushed 4 pounds pork tenderloin, cut into 1 inch cubes 2 medium yellow onions, cut into 1 inch pieces 2 green bell peppers, cut into 1 inch pieces skewers DIRECTIONS In a large glass bowl, mix together lemon juice, olive oil, soy sauce, oregano, and garlic; add pork, onions, and green peppers, and stir to coat. Cover, and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours. Preheat grill for medium-high heat. Thread pork, peppers, and onions onto skewers. Lightly oil grate. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes, or to desired doneness, turning skewers frequently for even cooking. All this sounds really great, I have to remember to make this. Thanks. nancy

We use the same basic marinade for pork, chicken lamb and occasionally for beef. It is just olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper and oregano. You can't always trust wikipedia for accuracy.
