Oven
1. Preheat the oven to 325° F.
2. Arrange the onions, shallots, and garlic, in the bottom of a large, oven-safe Dutch oven.
3. In a bowl, mix the paprika, cumin, oregano, thyme, cayenne, and season with 2 teaspoons of salt. Place the roast on the onions, then rub all over with the spice mix. Pour over the beer and lemon juice. Add 1/3 cup water. Cover and roast for 3 to 4 hours or until very tender.
4. Crank the heat on the oven up to 425° F. Uncover and cook for 10 minutes, until deeply caramelized on top. Remove the meat from the pot and shred it using two forks.
5. Simmer the remaining sauce left in the pot with the butter, until just barely reduced. Toss the beef with the sauce.
6. Stuff the beef and onions into warmed pitas with tzatziki. Then add lettuce, red onions, and herbs. Drizzle over more tzatziki. YUM! Enjoy!
