Delicious

A Smedley· last year

It was super yummy. Takes a bit of time, but was quicker using the broiler to toast a bunch of the sliced gyro meat all at once. Also subbed for the Aleppo peppers, and was still delicious. Very satisfying.

I didn't have any Aleppo peppers, so I used paprika and cayenne. Turned out good and satisfied my gyro craving.
