**RECIPE, MAKES 8-10 SANDWICHES**
10 oz (300g) plain Greek yogurt
1 cucumber
1 lemon
1-3 garlic cloves
fresh or dried dill
1 red onion
2 lb (900g) ground lamb
2-3 tbsp Herbs de Provence (or any combination of dried thyme, oregano, marjoram, rosemary)
1-2 tsp ground cumin
White wine (or water) for deglazing
8 oz (200g) fresh tomatoes
8-10 pita loaves or hamburger buns
ketchup
flour
salt
pepper
To make the tzatziki, grate the cucumber and squeeze as much water out of it as you can. Combine it with the yogurt in a mixing bowl along with some lemon juice, grated or finely minced garlic, olive oil, dill and salt. Add the flavorings in conservative amounts, mix, taste, and add more of whatever you want.
Peel the onion and slice one quarter of it into thin slices for garnish. Chop up the rest. Put a wide pan on medium-high heat, put in some olive oil and fry the chopped onions until just starting to brown. Put in the lamb and stir aggressively with a wooden spoon to break it up and to continuously deglaze the bottom of the pan with the water that will come out of the meat.
After about 10 minutes, enough water should have evaporated that the meat will start to brown. Brown it as thoroughly as you can without letting the bottom of the pan burn. Put in a big spoonful of flour, stir, and let it brown in the fat for a moment. When burning is imminent, deglaze with white wine or water. (If using water, you might also put in a splash of vinegar - white balsamic is the closest substitute for white wine.)
Mix in the herbs, cumin, salt, pepper and a little ketchup (maybe 2 tbsp) to taste. You might need to add more liquid to get a saucy consistency. Slice up the tomatoes. Warm the bread. Put on the meat, top with tzatziki, sliced onions and tomatoes.
Hi, thanks for watching the vid! No, this is not an "authentic" gyro sandwich, and I certainly did not present it as such. This is a mash-up of a Greek-American-restaurant-style gyro and a sloppy joe sandwich. If you wanted to get something closer to a real Greek-American-restaurant-style gyro without buying a vertical broiler and keeping it running all day, I'd suggest buying (or making) a gyro loaf, cooking it in the oven until solid, resting it, shaving it into thin strips, then laying those strips onto a sheet pan in a single layer and browning them under the broiler. No, people in Greece don't pronounce "gyro" the way I do. The way I pronounced it here is a very common American pronunciation. I go to lots of American gyro joints and I can't remember the last time I heard it pronounced any other way, though no doubt it is. I'm sure if I'd said it some other way, people would still be mad. BTW, the way I pronounce "cumin" is very common as well: www.dictionary.com/browse/cumin?s=t. No, I don't hate Alton Brown. I think he's the best. He's a transformational figure in American cooking and cooking media. I try to improve upon ideas he gave me, which is how we honor the legacy of those who came before us.

I make gyros at home all the time, The key is to forget about the rotisserie, cook it like a meatloaf, and then carve it and pan fry to get the crust. I would do it a lot in college because I could just take that hunk of meat and put it in my fridge and then when I wanted to eat it throughout the week I would carve off pieces and reheat them in the pan
That's genius
Omg this is genius. What combo of meats did you use? Beef & lamb? Would love to know your recipe!
@@chelseet11 I got the ingredients for the idea last night and had tried it if you can get your hands on lamb get it but just beef is fine I followed alton browns recipe!!!!
Dear Mr Costa, you are right on the money. I have watched many a shop gyros slowly turning and cooking, then carved off and refried on the grill before i get to eat it's deliciousness. You have created the home cook version. 🤝

claire Lol same i was waiting for it
Ima just say a random thing about his pronouncing. I just want him to notice me ;-;
😂😂😂
He stopped doing Q&As unfortunately
OK. Well, yes, I know the Greek pronunciation. This is a very common American pronunciation. Let's all move on with our day now.
As a Greek, I say the best tzatziki shold have enough garlic to be characterised as a chemical weapon.
It is not for the faint hearted - but good for your heart though.
I laughed so hard when he only used one garlic head 🤣
I'm not Greek, but am Italian (by heritage, I'm Italian American)... and yes, I concur. But, Italian Americans seem to like garlic more than actual Italians, so... eh.
One garlic clove for 300 grams of yogurt? That was pure blasphemy!
That's still not enough garlic. If you can taste any other flavors, that just won't do.

@@Ali_Ya_Ali nah. The wine is for the acidity wich gets neutralized in the cooking process. Same goes for the ketchup. You wouldn’t want to salt your sweet cake either but there is salt involved in the cooking process. I know that that’s a bit different but just to get the point across.

Adam, just a tip on getting liquid out of the cucumber. Salt it. A few pinches of salt and then let it rest for a few minutes before squeezing. You will get a lot more water out, and you will season the sauce at the same time!
Same for summer squash, before putting it in the oven dish or frying with bread douh 😁

In Greece we never use lamb for our ''γύρο'' ,it's mostly pork and sometimes chicken.I've had donner abroad though and it's really good.Lamb gyros is a middle eastern thing cause they don't eat pork.

Me, a lebanese dude : thats just some fancy lamb S H A W A R M A
generic username Do you ways wear a white v-neck with chest hair poking out? I kid, I kid. I used to go to this “Greek” place in LA and they used to serve this garlic spread. I couldn’t get enough of it and every time I asked what was in it they would just yell, “ghaarrrllic!” It wasn’t until 10 years later I happened upon a recipe for Toum. Excited didn’t even begin to describe how I felt after finally figuring it out. 🧄
Shawarma is just gyro with extra letters
Avengers have entered the chat
I though shawarma was served in Laffa bread and gyro was served in Pita bread? When I was living in Israel shawarma was my favorite meal. The huge soft laffa bread with chips in it OMG so fucking good. Could eat it every ducking day.
@@RealHankShill nah here in lebanon our version is served on pita bread with garlic sauce(toum) and pickles. Down in palastine/israel they migt serve it difrently
In Greece I believe it's pronounced Yee-ro. In Turkey it's pronounced donn-er kabob. In Cyprus, look around before you speak.
LOL, as a Turk I can confirm about it.
Yeah, it's mispronunciation is a ongoing source of amusement for the staff of Greek diners.
We say donner in UK as well
@@MilkPetrol That's where I learned it. On Green Lanes, which with unbelievable irony back in time held Greek restaurants on one side and Turkish on the other, just like the Green Line in Cyprus.
The authentic pronunciation that I know of uses a Greek letter not with the American alphabet. It’s an in between of a “g” and a “y”

As an American it fills me with a certain amount of pride to see someone taking a great foreign dish and saying "This could be a lot more like a hamburger than it is"
Also: Gyro flatbread could be made larger and thinner and combined with the ground lamb style to make Greek burritos and I want one.
Just popping on here to say we’ve made these at least 10 times since this video came out and it is always a winner. Still A+ using one the premium meat replacements like beyond, but really shines with ground lamb. One of my favorite week night dinners!

Adam, I like to make Gyros the day after I make a leg of lamb roast. leftover lamb shaved into thin strips and quickly seared in a cast iron is the closest thing to the beautiful bits of browned meat from a kabab place that i can make at home. other than the meat, i do a very similar process for the rest. Love it!
Gyros is pork
Alexander L gyros are not really defined, you can use different kinds of meat, and people often do. It also does not matter as much, as say, eating a steak, because spiced browned thin meat tastes more similar (and quite delicious) to other kinds of meat.

Hi Adam, I really love your content! I like how you dispel certain myths that seem to have built up over time in your videos. Could you do a vid to separate myth from reality with common egg making 'dos and donts' like whether or not seasoning before ruins scrambled eggs or if you should add anything to them like milk etc.; whether you need vinegar when poaching an egg? Also correct timing for boiled eggs would be good..
Also, an idea could be to explore why north America vs Britain have different preferences for things like 'over easy' (a concept utterly foreign to me as a brit) etc. Thanks!
My favorite part "Blame you not me, you can just add little bits of things until you like it" Best advice. :)
I just made this! It was really good! I love the sloppy joe idea. I moved to a place that has no gyro places in an hour radius, and have been craving them for a while!
I would say this sandwich is good. But it did not quite scratch my gyro itch. I
was trying to figure out what is missing, and after I finished my sandwich I realized FETA!!!
Adam, I feel like Feta is as much of a part of gyro as the sauce and meat. I am surprised you didn't add it. I am also craving some lettuce or something in it. Good thing this makes so much so I can add those things on the next one tomorrow!
I also which I have some pita bread, because I feel like that was also part of why I don't feel like it scratched my gyro itch.
Thanks so much for this very creative, approach which is quite quick as well!
Keep up the great work! I love your stuff. You got me into making homemade pasta! I always felt like I needed special equipment to do it, so I never looked into it. Thanks man!

*Once she stopped laughing, my native Greek Cypriot girlfriend made me say: "YEE-ROH" - now I'm passing it along to you 😂
If she wants a ye-roh sandwich, she needs to go to Greece or Turkey.
Provence was literally a Greek colony in the Classical Age, just search up Massilia
Hi, I made this today. Great recipe! Thx!
I love gyros, never had a geer-o though.
Great video, however, it is pronounced 'Yee-Roh' or 'Yee-Ross', just a heads up.
Nobody gives a fuck.
at least he didnt say "Jai row"
@@ststst981 Gyro? From part 7?
@@matejsebalj7469 Well I do, Matej.

You can also make the beef and lame roast, cook it similar to a meatloaf, and pan fry slices just enough to brown to serve.
Hey guys I’m Greek and I can confirm that it is pronounced “YEE-ROS”
Ιουλία Σλ and tell
All the idiots that gyro is made by pork
@@panagiotisathanasiou7918 and with chicken, which is how I like it. And 100% NOT ground meat, always thin strips from the real deal
Alexander T.
Absolutely right
Panagiotis Athanasiou yes of course it’s made out of pork and chicken if you want a “healthier” option 😂
@@2002alexandros No shit he spent the whole first half of the video explaining why he doesnt make the strip style at home
Sloppy joes: *"Am I a jOkE tO yOu?"*
JOE MAMA
actual authentic greek gyros:"am i a joke to you?"
@@alexanderschmidt8305 the point of the recipe was to be un-authentic dude 🙄
For tzatziki what you want to do is put in the whole fat yogurt, cucumber (strained), salt and garlic, then stir and add in olive oil until its barely smooth, then stir in red wine vinegar until it's a little loose.
Obviously like you say its totally up to the cook, but my aunt in Greece taught me to make it like that and it's by far the best I've had.
Also double the garlic (for more authentic) but if it sits, it'll be very strong
Deadass thought he was saying “oopa” and my soul died just a little
Mad respect to my mother who made tzatziki like this always. Hers' is still the best one I've ever had
I like how Adam shows how you can easily do this at home. And scripts it as if he just doesn't have something. Even if its true. He could easily go to the store. But he shows us how you can easily use things just sitting in your pantry and substitute for fresh if you have the time. While others might not even tell you that you can substitute.
Instructions unclear, I made a steak with some garlic butter and a vinegar leg on the left...
Crossover reference!
2:37 what's that random voice that comes in here? does he say "break" LOL
He hates that his yogurt is fat free and is saying that's nasty
SilencedYou
"Blegh" according to captions
He says "blegh" as disgust for low-fat yogurt XD
Here in Mexico we eat something similar called "Tacos al Pastor", but if you're in Puebla, Mexico, you can also try Tacos Arabes that quite more similar to Gyro
As a Greek person, I pronounce it “Yee-row” but you can call it “Jai-Row” except I will just die a little bit inside.
It means “around” in Greek referring to the way it is cooked.
Ναι το "jai-ro" σε πείραξε ενώ με το ώπα που είπε στο τέλος δεν έγινες dead inside 😂😂
Thanks for the definition of the word. Often with foreign-derived names I keep forgetting that the word might have some actual meaning, rather than just "that thing" or "one of those". Like the old joke: "Hey, what is that thing there?" "I don't know, let's call it an ungh."
BTW, where I'm from in California I most commonly hear these called gee-row (by the cooks) or guy-row (by customers new from the Midwest) with a hard G. But most of the places serving them are run by Armenians, and possibly they pronounce it slightly differently than Greeks do. Or maybe most of the people over here just came up with their own pronunciation, I don't know.
@@lwilton I am not 100% sure but I think the Turkish version "Donner" also is derived from the word "spin". But I'm glad you take interest in the meaning of the word :)
I work at a Gyro shop in the Midwest and I have heard it called so many things haha
It is definitely interesting how a word can have so many different pronunciations.
@@1276magaki Haha well at least he tried. Είστε από την Ελλάδα?
@@NicosRap Yes i am. :D
