"We love Greek food, but Gyros are a true hit in my house! Most of the Gyros that we buy out are dry and the sauce never really tastes like it should. This is a fabulous recipe for those of us who love a REAL Gyro. It is flavor packed and very versatile. If you do not have lamb, you can substitute with finely ground hamburger. It will not be as authentic..."
