Grilled Greek Lamb Pockets

Found these posted up at a BBQ forum I frequent, had to try them and the family is happy I did.

I even got my MiL to eat lamb and like it.... Shocker!
She loved them and the Tzatziki sauce too... She's never had Tzatziki sauce she says... The hell you say?!

That looks really good, How long did you grill them and was it direct or indirect.?

Between 5-10 minutes per side over direct heat.
