Homemade Beef Shawarma with a 13-Spice Ribeye Marinade and Cucumber-Mint Yogurt Sauce

A flavorful, non-traditional take on beef shawarma using ribeye sliced thin and marinated in 13 spices plus liquid smoke to mimic the char of a spit. Served on a toasted baguette with a creamy yogurt-sesame sauce loaded with fresh mint, cilantro, and grated cucumber. Perfect for anyone who wants bold Middle Eastern-inspired flavors without a rotisserie setup.
