The blend of spices is wonderful but the pork is just too greasy for my taste. I'd like to try it again with turkey like another reviewer wrote.

Made as directed. I thought the flavor of the pork was, well "odd". I think it was maybe the cinnamon that did this. Probably will not do again.

Well, we don't eat pork, and with the current ground turkey scare I decided to use ground lamb instead. These were WONDERFUL!!! My 3 kids gobbled them up, as did my husband and I. Really nice flavor with the combination of spices. I highly suggest using whole nutmeg if available and grating it fresh, it just amps up the flavor. My only qualm was the dressing...I had to add some extra virgin olive oil to temper the tangyness of the yogurt and lemon juice combo...it was just too sharp. I also added more fresh chopped parsley and ground pepper to round out the flavors some more. With my tweaks to the dressing, however, it was outstanding.
