Directions

  • Slice the pork into very thin, even pieces.
  • In a large bowl, mix the meat with olive oil, vinegar, lemon juice, and seasoning. Marinate for 1 hour.
  • Stick the meat tightly onto a rotisserie spit, spike or skewer to form a cone shape. For stability, you can cap both ends with onion halves.
  • Cook on a charcoal or gas grill over high heat, or in an oven preheated to 200 °C. Roast for about 45 minutes, then slice off the crisp outer layer. Continue roasting on the same temperature and slicing every 30 minutes. Each serving should be crispy on the outside and juicy inside.
  • Mix all the yogurt dip ingredients until smooth. Serve alongside the gyros with pita bread, fries, tomato, and onion, or use them to make a pita wrap.
