    They are called gyros by me, and if you ask me, a lot of restaurants are just bouncing back from covid but are still skimping out on the food quality so I will be making these.

    costco sells an organic tzatziki that my Greek friends say is the closest to authentic, so I just roll with that. plus I get good pita around here.

    The Gyro is one of my favorite easy to eat meals. Arbys has a pretty good Gyro for a chain. Best Gyro I've ever ate was in Frankfurt Germany when I was in the Navy. Little temp food stand with the typical vertical rotisserie. Wonderful memory.

    IMO, this recipe lacked nothing! Made this and blown away at how simple and good it is. 30 min? Maybe not! I used a fish basket for the grill instead of skewers, so much better. Also hit it with the 80/20 prime 1 ground beef

    I usually roll the processed lamb between two sheets of parchment until its about an eighth of an inch thick then bake it for about 20 mins at 220° F in the lower rack slot in my oven. Then use a pizza cutter to cut the meat into strips.

    Your recipe is almost identical to mine. Cheerio!

    I don't know what they serve as gyro on your parts of the world, but greek gyros has no beef nor lamb, is only pork or chicken not both, and it's cuts of meat (steak, belly etc) and definitely not minced – this is a kebab

    Love gyros – will definitely give it a go. Hey Bri, love your pizza vids and I have improved my dough skills as a result. I'm off to Chicago tomorrow, anyone here have recs for where to get deep dish? Thanks!

    That looks amazing! I've been doing something similar including a gyro with kafta and now I can't wait to try it like this!
    Another great tip. For the pita bread. You want to find GREEK pita bread. The difference is, it doesn't have the pocket and it's made with Greek yogurt which makes it light, fluffy, like a pita pillow! I recommend Christine Cushing's "Mastering Greek Pita Bread" video.
    You WILL be obsessed! Thank you!

    Ran across a fantastic site, I’m really into pizza, focaccia, pasta etc, this recipe (either) would be awesome for parties..he calls them pizzas, but the first looks like a salad topped focaccia, the second, a giant sandwich..the site is Italia Squisita, the recipe or video is Homemade Sheet Pan Pizza by Davide Civitiello..enjoy!

    To get closer to the actual Greek original one, try this, get pork neck steaks and some pancetta, marinade them with olive oil, salt, pepper, smoked paprika, oregano, grill and then cut them in thin stripes with a sharp knife. Pita bread, tzatziki sauce, tomatoes, onion and maybe a couple of fries – damn delicious, that'll be good to see the Lagerstrom version in a video. 🙂

    Hey Bri!!! This was awesome… so good! Any idea when you will put out a New Haven Pizza recipe? I hear it is so good! I have tried all your pizza recipes and they are top notch. Thanks

    Thanks for this cool recipe, that I´ll definetely try. The Greek restaurants in Germany use fatty pork cuts for their gyro and season it with pepper, salt, lemon juice, red onion, garlic and summer savory.

    I live in a small city on the cali coast with only (the most amazing) Oaxacan owned Mexican restaurants and like one sushi place and an Olive Garden 😂 so I’ve never tried Greek food but my grocery stores carry all these ingredients can’t wait to try! You think cotija would be a good sub for the Greek style feta?

    Looks good. Were the skewers even necessary? It didn't seem so, seeing how you cooked the meat. Per the video's title, I work pretty fast for a home cook but I don't think I could crank this out completely in 30 minutes. Maybe around that long?

    Looks fantastic! I don't own a grill but might try this under the broiler as you mentioned. And I do like the hollow pita pouches, might try to find some of them or a good recipe and make my own 🙂

    I love that you give weights for everything, and in metric! Thanks for this recipe. I haven't had a good gyro since I left Tarpon Springs, Florida. Since I live in ranch country now, I'm hoping to find ground lamb. I need to make this!
