Gyros are one of my favorite Greek foods. Flavor packed meat, sliced thin and pan fried until crispy. Wrapped in a pita loaded with tzatziki, cucumber, red onion and feta cheese! You might think that you need fancy equipment to make them, but trust me you don’t. This beef and lamb gyro meat recipe is aromatic, juicy on the inside, and crispy on the outside. It’s perfect for homemade gyro wraps.
