After starting home from vacation. I stopped at GFS to look things over. The meat prices weren't much different then here. So I didn't bother. But I did get 10 pounds of sliced beef/lamb gyros. Along with crab meat. Also got some belly. And some mild whole peppers in brine. Got ideas for those.
So, on with the gryos.
Homemade Tzatziki sauce. Make this a couple hours before dinner to give it time to set up and combine the flavors.
3 tablespoons olive oil. I used EVOO
1 tablespoon white vinegar
2 cloves garlic minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1 cup Greek Yogurt
1 cup sour cream
2 cucumbers peeled, cored, and with seeds removed. I gave them a few pulses with the food processor. Then squeezed with paper towels. Then let sit in strainer to continue to drain. These need to be dried as much as possible or you'll end up with runny sauce.
1 teaspoon chopped fresh dill or 1/2 tsp dried.
Mix everything together. And put in fridge.
I threw 12 strips of Gyro on the flat top. And gave the sliced onions a quick steam to soften slightly.
Then I gave the nan bread a good slather on Tzatziki. I couldn't find any pita bread.
Loaded up with onions and Gryo. Had these with fries. The meat may look dry. But, they weren't. It was moist and very good.
