Awesome job, this is basically the same recipe I was given by a restaurateur in Greek Town Detroit back in the 80's, the only differences being that it used reconstituted dried onion, no bread crumbs and the loaf was compressed with weights for 2 days in the refrigerator and allowed to "ripen". Lastly, the cinnamon is the key to totally nailing the flavor but you have to be super careful with it because it is very easy to over do it, so when he says a pinch he means it.

I made this tonight for dinner and the meat came out flawlessly! It was exactly like a restaurant gyro but better; gyros in New York City can be ridiculously priced and then some places don’t even pile on enough meat! This way, you can make it precisely how you like it. This is definitely going into my standard dinner rotation from now on.

I just had a muslim style one in Seattle the other day that had that aleppo pepper and some other stuff. like instead of tzatsiki it was like feta/mayonnaise like sauce. the flavors where very different than a Chicago style one that we are all used to in the US. didnt like the sauce so much, but it did work ok and they sauteed the gyro meat with additional flavors that I can't figure out. I'm thinking Lebanon style or somewhere around there. Oh and the place also served Shawarma.. soo....
@shotjohnny
@shotjohnny 7 жыл бұрын
ichigeri maybe it was a döner you had? Coz the "germanized" version of döner has a variety of sauces that you describe here... Gyros is traditionally served with tzatziki so if it looked like a gyros, but had a different sauce, and the meat was a bit different, my guess is you had a döner. My other guess would have been shawarma but since you say the place also served a separate shawarma dish, I'd say it was a "german-style" döner. Turks usually serve döner simply with (a) yogurt (sauce). Or maybe the place did their own spin on either dish. All three - döner, gyros and shawarma -- are after all closely related :)

Back in the 1980's, I would make a weekly lunchtime trek to an "authentic" greek gyro shop in Bellaire, Texas (Houston). It appeared to be a home converted to a restaurant. There was always a line... When I got to the "ordering" spot, I would tell the olive-skinned, mustachioed Owner, "I would like a gyro and fries." He would then speak into a 60's microphone, about the size of a tennis ball, metal mesh covered, placing his lips and mustache upon said ball, and utter "Year-oh and fries" in a deep baritone foreign accent. This announcement would blare loudly over the entire establishment. This hereby settles the pronunciation debate.
@karlpoppins
@karlpoppins 5 жыл бұрын
"Gyro" is an English word and it can be pronounced however its native speakers want - typically, it's pronounced as in "gyroscope". As a Greek living in the US for a few years now, I get bothered every time people ask me how we pronounce this or that, because it's pointless. Foreigners can't possibly get it right, and changing one's accent mid-sentence is a waste of effort, so "gyro" works fine. If someone wants to go the extra mile and call it "yee-ro(s)", that's their thing but nobody should be asking for it.

I am not going to say it was fine dining; but after 3 weeks in country with only MREs for a guy that grew up a 40 minute drive from Greektown in the Greater Detroit area it was wonderful. I don't have the "glass stomach " as European's call it, of most Americans so it didn't cause me problems but two other in my platoon had the green apple quickstep for a couple of days. Thanks for the recipe because Gyros are one of my favorite sandwiches.

Put a couple of Filo layers in a square metal pan, butter the pan, butter the layers, add honey and whatever else you want, and repeat until you reach the top of the pan. Bake it until it slightly browns and you have Baklava!

Made this tonight, turned out great! You're right, frying the meat in the pan is key. Tried others before and were never quite the same taste or texture.

Spot on for the american gyro version we would make at one restaurant I worked at. Southern style everything food and they had a gyro too. Got frozen beef (maybe little lamb mixed also?) slabs cooked on the flat top, looking just like those but longer when done frying. Exactly the same toppings in that order, but with none of that fancy stuff and add feta. Oh how I miss those things.

Made this and your Tzatziki (skipped out on the pita bread and used store bought). Used half the meat for gyros, and the other half for beftiki. Both turned out awesome! FYI-Beftiki is this meat made kind of like a burger with feta cheese melted inside.

I made this up last night to let the flavors mingle (except I ran it all through the food processor). My probe says it's at 155(f) right now and the house smells AMAZING! Another 15 minutes and I'll be able to finish the bread. The tzatziki sauce will come after that! _Feeling proud of myself today!_ *BTW? I learned from your mistake and put a double layer of foil under it.*

Chef John, in the US they call this "Greek Gyros" wherever I'd go. You're the first person I see that names this "American" which is actually correct. In Greece they don't make Gyros with that kind of meat. It's just pork slices that are slowly cooked and had been marinated. In fact, nobody in Greece knows most of the products they sell in the US as Greek products. Js

LasombraQ Do Greeks still eat that tsaziki sauce normally or is that another fake-Greek food only in the US? I'm probably misspelling it.
@merQree
@merQree 7 жыл бұрын
No, you wrote it correctly. The Greeks yes, they still eat that dip normally. But it has nothing else but yogurt (there's no such thing as a "Greek" yogurt btw), garlic, olive oil, grape vinegar, cucumber and dill. That's it. Nothing else.

I'mAPeach yea we do lol like the other person said, but most probably american tzatziki is very diff than greek one. Also i want to add that we do have what americans call greek yogurt, we just name it strained yogurt :) (στραγγιστό γιαούρτι). I cant be completely sure since i havent tasted the american "greek" yogurt, but to my knowledge thats what it is. In any case theres nothing here we call "greek yogurt".

merQree and beside the yogurt being "Greek yogurt" thick the cucumbers are seeded and salted to remove much of the water so that the sauce has a better texture than what often passes for tzatziki in the US.
