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.

This looks great, going to have to try this. The way I've gotten around the lack of browned crust in the past has been to make and cook my gyro loaf, and then when I want to make a gyro I slice off as much as I want, lay those slices on a baking sheet, and pop them under the broiler for a few.

Great stuff. After watching it, I made real gyros out of boneless chicken thighs on skewers in the oven. Turned out great.

As a Greek I now know how Italians feel when people change their traditional recipes , kind of weird but cool seeing how people put their own twists ,usually brought up by their cultures, to traditional foods. Nice Video non the less Adam , keep it up!

It's pronounced jyro like you're saying juice

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

I must day i REALLY like the 2× replay speed feeling i get from your videos, no bullshit, cut right to the core of everything, much appreciate it!!

Toasty2478 gyros shwarma and döner are pretty much the same

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!

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.

Τhe most common version is pork and sometimes chicken. Greeks don't call this gyros but doner.

Dozens of videos into your content and this might be my favorite recipe. I'm going to try making some this weekend!

Loved this - it is really good on rice as well - has enough sauce to flavour the rice without drowning the rice in sauce (for those that feel sorry for drowned rice).

When me and my dad make the sauce u were making (we’re middle eastern) we just put yogurt which is usually home made, cocombers, garlic, and some lemon. We make it very strong on garlic Edit: not saying ur recipe is bad it just reminds me of the times me and my dad ate this together, it was really good!

I love how accessible all your cooking is. It perfectly balances scratching the itch to cook for those of us who love it with the realities of home cooking.

I just made this and it came out really good !

Yea.... Gonna have to try this one.

Great vid Adam. I love how you tackled that garlic “problem” as I cook more I find myself running into little inconveniences and its nice to know how others tackle them.

Oooh, delicious! I've been craving these for ages, am too broke right now for takeout, and yet somehow never considered that I can make something close enough at home. Awesome 👍

I love me a gear-o sandwich from time to time. Especially when they’re made in grease.

We made these the other night and they were fantastic!! We added feta cheese and lettuce to ours and we will def be making them again.

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!

1:39 my Balkan ass watching you put only one garlic clove thinking: *"Wait what?! Less than 3 cloves?! How am I even supposed to tell there is garlic in this?!!!"*

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!

These were really good! I really liked the tzatziki

Thanks for making me get back into cooking Adam.

"Why I blame myself, not Adam."

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.

This looks so yummy & easy! Thanks Adam!
