Smokydave Posted February 4, 2015 Report Posted February 4, 2015 Made my own gyros for Super Bowl. Used Alton Brown's recipe from the Food Network site. Heavily modified to add double the spices as a few comments said the standard recipe was bland. So I took the chance. Also used ground beef and turkey as the ground lamb was $8.99 a lb! It came out juicy and smoky and flavorful, but it was missing something. I think more garlic and pepper and maybe more marjoram. Needless to say, we liked it a lot.
DaveyR Posted February 4, 2015 Report Posted February 4, 2015 Wow looking good there SmokeyDave and a nice smoke ring as well
CeramicChef Posted February 5, 2015 Report Posted February 5, 2015 SmokyDave - that just sent my hunger pangs into turbo mode! Great looking cook. Can you post the recipe you used for this? I've gotta try this on TheBeast.
Smokydave Posted February 5, 2015 Author Report Posted February 5, 2015 http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/gyro-meat-with-tzatziki-sauce-recipe.html Again, I doubled the spices and thought I really needed more. But I DO like things savory so you may not want to do the same.
