🍲 Ingredients
Ground Beef – Use a low-fat, lean beef. This is really important to have the best consistency and the least grease in your final product. Ground Lamb – Lamb is okay to be high in fat because that’s just what you get, and combined with the beef it’s just so good. I love lamb because it adds a unique flavor. However, if it’s not your thing you can definitely substitute it for more beef.
👩🍳 How to Make Gyro Meat
🪄 Tips and Tricks
For this Gyro Meat recipe, I used a vertical pan. It essentially is a high-brimmed pan with a skewer in the middle that allows for you to easily stack the meat and resembles a spit like the traditional Gyro Meat you see at shawarma shops or on the streets of Greece. However, since you might not have something like this, you can use a cake tin with some pre-soaked wooden skewers. You can help the skewers stand by inserting them in half of an onion.
🗒 Substitutions
Ground Lamb: If you don’t want to use lamb, substitute it with an equal amount of lean ground beef Avocado Oil: Olive oil will work just as good
🗒 Best served with
Pita Tzatziki Gyro Fries
👝 How to Store Leftovers
Store leftover meat off the skewer in an airtight container for up to 4 days in the fridge. Us this Gyro Meat in pitas, salads, bowls, or whatever you wish. It’s so versatile!
