Recipe for Greek Beef Gyros

Written by in , , Comments Off on Recipe for Greek Beef Gyros

These traditional gyros are made with gyro meat that has been made from beef. This isn’t a common choice in Greece but gyro meat made from beef can be found elsewhere.

Beef Gyro Recipe Ingredients:

  • 4 Greek pita bread rounds
  • 1 recipe Greek tzatziki
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 medium tomatoes, diced
  • Slices of Gyro meat (eyeball it, but about 4-8 slices per sandwich depending on the size of the pita)
  • Crumbled feta cheese
  • Dried Greek Oregano

Instructions on How to Prepare Greek Style Beef Gyros:

Make the pita bread and tzatziki according to the recipe instructions, unless you’re buying these two ingredients in the store.

Place a piece of aluminum foil down on a flat surface. Put a piece of bread in the center of the foil. Spread a generous amount tzatziki across the middle of the pita bread. Top with chopped onion and tomato and then add the beef gyro meat. Sprinkle with feta cheese and drop another spoonful of tzatziki over the top, if desired. Also sprinkle some oregano over all the ingredients.

Roll the gyro sandwich and wrap it in aluminum foil so it can hold the shape. Repeat until you’ve used up all the bread.
