Easy 30 Minute Gyro | WEEKNIGHTING

[@SuzanneBaruch]

Looks great, Bri! Another option for folks who don't have an outdoor grill: press the meat mixture into a meatloaf pan and bake it. When it's done, cool it completely and refrigerate overnight (if possible). When you want to make a gyro, simply shave pieces off the cold meatloaf and pan fry it on both sides. That'll give you the crispiness that all gyros should have!

[@all_day309]

Excellent idea. I'm gonna definitely try...

[@mrpootank8757]

I am pretty sure chef John did it that way in his version. I came to the comments to suggest the post fry.

[@SuzanneBaruch]

@@mrpootank8757 this is actually how many Greek restaurants in the US make their gyro meat. The giant rotating spits are very expensive, and roasting the meatloaf then slicing and frying the pieces is much less expensive.

[@papadage]

You can close the lid as long as you clean your grill regularly. And by that, I mean a full internal cleaning. Take out and clean the grates and flavorizers, pull the burners, and scrape the grease inside. I do it at least twice a year to keep my grill safe. Some cooking techniques require a closed grill, like using a rotisserie or cooking thicker steaks indirectly for a reverse sear.

Thanks! Huge Gyro fan and have wondered how to do it at home. Love your channel dude. Keeps up the great work!

[@awightman1221]

I love your recipe because it's super quick. For those that have more time, I actually like a thicker tzatziki rather than runny. I get this by slicing cucumber in half, scooping out seeds with a spoon, then blending it up, then using a cheese cloth or nut milk bag or even paper towels in a pinch to squeeze out as much water as possible. Mix the resulting cucumber paste into full fat greek yogurt with mint, dill, and lemon juice and then refrigerate. You can make it even thicker by hanging the yogurt in a cheesecloth or something in the fridge for an hour or two with a bowl below it to drain some of the moisture.

[@bigstam1234567890]

That's the absolute best way of making tzatziki. You can skip the last step by buying strained yoghurt. Also try red wine vinegar instead of lemon and put raw olive oil

[@awightman1221]

@@bigstam1234567890 I forgot the olive oil! oops thank you! I had that feeling I was forgetting something lol. RWV instead of lemon is interesting, I'll have to try it! I always have RWV, but sometimes I'm out of lemons.

[@joancoleman1228]

Brian! I made this for dinner tonight. Fantastic recipe. It got thumbs up from my hubs and our guests. My grocery store did not have ground lamb,so I used ground pork with the beef. Delish! The salad and the yogurt were great, as was the meat. And, I spent about 30 minutes doing the prep (as advertised) but elapsed time was longer. Will definitely be adding this to my repertoire. Oops, one more thing…I didn’t use the skewer method, just formed the pattys and grilled like that. Simpler with no downside. Thank you!!

[@dval823]

Made these last night. Did not use skewers, just formed the meat into small loaves and grilled. Very good, bult felt that the meat was a little bland. Next time, I will up the spices by about 50%.eep up the great work!!

[@darthvader5532]

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!

If you cook your tortillas directly on the gas range grates, yes, over direct flame, they char a little and are much better. It happens fast so be ready to flip. Once cooked throw them in a tortilla holder so they can steam.

I rolled the meat in plastic wrap to make a meat tube, sous vide to 150, then spitted the cooked meat for the air fryer rotisserie to get those browned slices. Awesome recipe.

[@marsan2857]

Hey Bri Greetings from Greece friend! I checked the comments and i didn't see any Greek complaining that this is not gyros so here i am! At least in Greece your recipe that i will try for sure in the weekend we call it doner. So to represent my country accurate allow me to do the "grinia" for them. You can call it Stavros or Themistocles but not yeeros. Totally different thing and in most cases is pork and chicken. Thanks for the great videos and your recipes i have tried a lot of them! 😁

[@giannisq8008]

I was about to add a comment but then I saw yours. Another Greek here and I agree that is not Yeeros! Bri, you are welcome to visit our country for some original gyros and you will find out the difference yourself! We still love you though! Thanks a lot for all your videos!

Made this recipe last night for dinner, followed it exactly. My husband and I couldn’t stop raving about it. The flavors are fresh and bright and just so delicious! Thanks Brian! I’ll be making more of your recipes in the future!

[@dillspitzen]

It‘s super interesting to me how different western cultures have adapted greek food. Here in Germany, the „gyro sandwich“ is super rare, whereas Döner Kebap is available everywhere. Likewise, the „gyro“ sold here isn‘t made of ground lamb/beef, but actual slabs of seasoned pork stuck on a spit. (basically a non-halal kebap) Here in Germany we also have something called „Pfannengyros“, which are small pieces of pork meat, marinated, with garlic and onions - which is then pan-seared.

[@vooveks]

Yeah, I was thinking of the pork version myself, kebab rotisserie style, with the slices stacked on the spit and carved off. So damn good - there's a truck that does it here in the UK in Brighton, genuine Greek-run, and that pork gyro is one of the nicest things I've ever eaten. The soft, puffy bread wrap, with that fatty, succulent, well-singed and caramelised marinated pork, all the nice sauces and salad, and they even put chips (fries) in to complete the deal, all wrapped up in a cone. Perfect food.

[@TheSlavChef]

The best Doner Kebaps I had were in Germany. And we have a lot of these in Bulgaria....

[@jernigan007]

American fool from Florida here kebaps & gyros are basically the same for us, Shaved "meat" on naan bread or pita.

[@ghostlygardener5644]

The pork slab version would be the more authentic version imo. And the "pfannengyro" you describe sounds like souvlaki without the spit xD

[@nicolejohnson7897]

Just made this tonight and it was incredible! I skipped the skewers (didn't need them in the end, everything held together beautifully), but otherwise followed everything exactly for the meat. My husband and I both loved it, and are already talking about the leftovers for dinner tomorrow. Thanks Bri!

[@dropcheekelbow9110]

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.

[@patak12]

Made just the meat popsicles last night bc the grill was on. Fire. Subbed all the cumin and coriander for more oregano, some basil, and more chili flake. Also threw in another tea spoon of salt. Easily fed 4 for like $15 dollars of meat.

[@ourtube4266]

My favorite school lunch was the gyro, super cheap stuff served on a tortilla with a jarred tzatziki and soggy tomatoes. I always put franks red hot on it because the lunch ladies had a bottle at the end of the line. I still put franks on every gyro I make or order because it just doesn’t feel complete without it now.

[@BrianLagerstrom]

i WISH my lunchroom would have served gyros

[@twhdvm]

These are friggin' awesome. I mixed beef and pork since I don't like lamb. If it rains just press the meat mixture into an 8×8 casserole pan and bake until done. Cut your big meat brick into 3rds and slice like in the video. I like to do a quick pan fry of the meat slices for a little extra crust. The salad and yogurt sauce are....dope.

[@tristanrl1940]

Looks good! 1) Consider adding to the mince fresh rosemary and thyme - Greeks also use dried mint which adds a fantastic, singular flavour to lamb - in this case, mince! 2) also one might consider slightly undercooking the meatballs (biftekia) and when we’ll-sliced, put a hard crisp to them on one side, in a pan - using a bit of oil for searing - this step mimics the shaving of crisp ends one gets when meat is carved-off a proper spit rotisserie

[@Dan-ji4db]

Just made these and they were bangin. The meat really absorbed a lot of the yogurt sauce so bri aint joking when he says be generous. Keep it on hand in case you need another squirt. Each meat hunk makes 1 gyro so this made 6. I might double the tom/cuke salad next time to cover all 6 with a healthy amount of salad. I really pile it on and am running low after only 2 gyros. It should be plenty though if you only like a few spoonies. Overall it was great. Thanks bri 🤓👍🏻

In Greece,gyro is made with pork or chicken,for younger generations chicken is preferred with a mayo based sauce,filled with tomato,onion and French fries.This looks closer to a kebab doner which isn’t very common in Greece.

[@ChristosKaps]

As a Greek, I have to say that this is not Greek gyros, by any stretch of the definition (not that Brian made any claim that it is, just saying, not sure what my Greek American friends and family over the pond consider "Gyros", though). To me, this looks far closer to a homemade version of doner kebab. Now, having said that, it does look delicious and quite doable, for proper gyros you would need a rotisserie, vertical spit. My recommendation would be to go for a thicker version of a "tzatziki" sauce, so that it actually sticks more to the meat, add some thoroughly washed, thinly sliced onion and opt for some thinly sliced, salted tomato. Not a big fan of cucumber myself and, in proper Greek gyros, the only cucumber to be found would be inside the tzatziki, so I'd do away with that. Also, because you get some heavy ingredients in this sandwich (especially if you opt for a meat-heavy combo, and I heartily recommend that you do) you actually need a more substantial flour wrapper to hold the ingredients, ergo I'd go for a pita over a tortilla, which looks far too flimsy for all this delicious stuff. Reading back what I wrote, I'm afraid I sound way too critical, but this does look delicious and I'll be definitely be giving it a try.

[@obuw1]

As a turk I can say with 100% certainty that if you tried to serve this as doner kebab in turkey, the customers would chase you away with a doner knife. 😂 Doner in turkey is made from slabs of meat (either lamb/beef or chicken). Served in bread or lavash (basically a thick tortilla). With onion, lettuce and tomato, plus a tomato sauce. Nothing like tsatziki sauce, and never cucumbers. However, the various things they call "doner" or "gyro" or "shawarma" in various parts of westerm europe and the US are wildly different from what we are used to. I wonder how an american would react if I served them "texas bbq" in the form of lamb chops, mediterranean salad and grilled cheese with a side of blueberry pancakes. :P

I think it can be done without a rotisserie in the oven but you have to make the pork slices very thin stack them etc. I think if sb got the time to do it it will be really worth the effort.

I've done quite a bit of your dishes and even commented on your chicken, so now I am compelled to comment again. First, I detect no dope, so there is no narcotic inducing euphoria. Second, as I have made an easier but different version of meat blend, I can say yours is just as good and maybe spicier. Third, the toppings are not enough. Granted, my wife who would not taste the sauce because of the yogurt caused a shortage I think it should be doubled. Then came the shortage of the salad as it is similar to my tomato salad, and my wife is to blame. The final result was a wonderful dinner for us in this 90°+ weather where I grilled outside and my wife shelled peas. I'll take the grilling. You have not disappointed and this was wonderful. Yes, your meat blend is more work than mine, but I would happily grill it, and my wife prefers it, so your version wins. Everything worked well together and was gluttony inducing. Again, this was a nice dish.

[@bradcampbell624]

Looks like a winner! I tried Alton Brown's version a few years back, but it was cooked in the oven in a loaf pan if I remember correctly. It was good. But for me, anything on the griddle, grill or smoker is so much better! The sauce looks A+ as well.

[@Zoomborg]

As a greek (and also living in Greece) this is just way too far from what gyro is like. It's pretty much always pork/chicken and never minced meat, like never. I can understand doing your own version but you changed the fundamentals so much that this is way closer to kebap. Gyro meat traditionally is thin slices of pork/chicken, marinated in spices and stacked on a spit roast. The outer meat is cut thinly when caramelized and you end up eating purely caramelized meat which is what makes gyro stand out as opposed to baking a pork roast in the oven. The whole reason gyro is delicious is because it is cooked the way it is and not another way. The best way to come close to this at home is to marinate pork/chicken, cut it as thinly as possible and caramelize it on a skillet or a flat top, almost like cooking a cheesesteak. And plz no minced meat, might as well do a kebap sandwitch at that point (which is delicious is its own right).

@@linitweapon I understand your point, no matter what gyros is in the rest of the world, in North America this “version” exists also. So it’s an American gyros, as we have NY style pizza. Still not a gyros recipe, otherwise the word loses its meaning.

[@FeederL0rd]

also the ingredients are not even close to a real gyros... if you don't like pita bread go ahead and use tortillas or whatever you want... also tzatziki is optional, you can use any sauce you like... sure you can skip tomato and onion, but PLEASE don't skip the fried potatoes dude 😂 use any type of bread you like, any type of meat, any type of sauce but please don't skip the fried potatoes 😂

Great show! I've learned a lot. But my wife and I started laughing because we are old enough to remember Gumby and you have his hair style. Had to say it!

[@holaholafelipito]

Why do I keep hearing Euro?

[@yellllowbear]

Yeah, pretty sure that is neither the correct Greek nor American pronounciation 😆

[@reggiedunlop2222]

“Shredded beef” Bri is the all time hero of this homemade Gyro **in a Chef John voice

[@aziadah1]

israeli style salad? never heard of it smh

[@BenVanpool197535]

My wife and I just finished cooking this together and it was absolutely fantastic! Thank you for the wonderful recipe!

[@Metalwolf765]

Spraying that sauce on the cutting board made me irrationally angry

[@Nanorisk]

Wrap the bamboo spits with foil to prevent charring, works better along with the soaking.

[@ItachiEspada]

Looks super delicious (as always), but the way you pronounce "Gyros" is almost a hate crime :D

[@greecegreece2022]

What do you mean? His pronunciation is impeccable! The spelling on the title is wrong.

[@maxpennacchini3261]

Get rid of the pepperoncinis and that sounds pretty good. Maybe some kalamatas instead to cover the briney. I might have had an issue with the tortilla choice when I was younger because I am from Tucson, but then I travelled a lot more and realized that really good tortillas are basically a luxury that the rest of America is not quite privied to

[@SirRulean1223]

The Isreali style? Lmao I doubt they invented it

[@joeblow7392]

Made it! Hella good! Thanks! Just added a smoke box to the grill for the wood flavor!

[@MegaBallen1]

Why are you calling it Euro?

[@em1860]

Depending on where you're from, there's several pronunciations for the word. That's one of them.

[@SphincterChrist]

Tried it now👌 epic! Tnx❤️

[@ploppyjr2373]

Today we’re going to put 1 euro coins into into a bread

[@jabberman3000]

Imo the best way to mimic how they shave the meat off a spit is to freeze the meat and shave off thin bits of meat with a sharp knife. Best part is it literally 2-3 minutes to cook the meat because the pieces are so thin. You can freeze a few pounds and have it ready to go. When watching videos with this method I didn't think it would be very good, but it comes out EXACTLY like the ones from restaurants

[@blackheartboyjm6661]

don't show this video to a greek. Am telling you this as a greek

[@williamfotiou7577]

lol, yiasou, I was thinking the same thing! Ti pathame edo? 😅

[@OldishGoalie]

KZbin has a Greek blocker? I don't think that's okay. 😂

[@Black2KGSR]

When we were kids in the 80s, my [Greek] mom used to make a similar big meatloaf for Gyros at home.

[@gigai6645]

that isrealy salad originates from mediterranean countries

[@LaurieKing0623]

Brian, I have two awesome recipes for the cucumber and tomato salad and tzatziki sauce that my entire family craves now

[@LaurieKing0623]

Believe it or not, I love the Greek pita from Walmart very authentic and delicious! I had it on Thursday

[@ddwayn2469]

There is nothing such as Isreal food. 😂😂😂

[@dpelpal]

Wow, fantastic recipe!

[@alex00942021]

There is nothing called Israeli style salad, its Greek with a mid eastern twist and this type of salad is well known in Lebanon, Syria, Jordan and PALESTINE.
