I did the meat in the crockpot. Pretty disappointing to be honest it just tasted like stewed meat and the spices didn't come through.
I bought off the shelf tatziki sauce. Homemade is definitely better but I don't have time for that shit.
I'm working on my plating. Food tastes better if it's separated into groups.

Looks gr8
Tzatziki takes like 5 minutes to DIY and what spices did u use, what cut of meat and how did u cook it?
Maybe toss it in some oil and more seasoning and chuck it in the oven at 450 real quick??

I put a beef chuck into a crockpot with onions and a bunch of spices and cooked it for 8 hours. I'd shop around for slow cooker gyro recipes online because the recipe I used was mediocre.

There's a serious eats recipe where kenji tries to make al-pastor at home, which also would typically involve an impractical spinning meat cone that you aren't going to replicate in your kitchen.

He ends up packing a bunch of thin slices of pork into a bread pan and making a weird meatloaf. I've never tried this, it looks like a lot of effort, but I feel like maybe this could be something to try for your gyro game. Your picture looks great, btw, I'd eat it.

The meat is just a beef chuck in a crock pot with onions. The recipe calls for salt, pepper, lemon juice, oregano, and fresh dill. I also added marjoram (from a previous Greek dish), garlic powder, and cumin.
Everything else I just purchased from the store.

Double your oregano and majoram if you're going the crock pot method.
Also I'd slice the cucumbers into quarters.

For the meat I just use strips & onions and stir fry it in a pan with the herbs (savory, pepper, paprika, oregano, rosmarine, majoran and a tiny bit of nutmeg).
The greek salad is cucumber, tomato, feta (optionally olives & pickled pepperoni pepper) with olive oil, white wine vinegar, salt, pepper mixed together.
After all that fill the pita (I usually buy pitas for that) with the 3 things and enjoy.

Neighbor, homemade Tzatziki takes like 5 minutes to make, it’s literally put greek yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil and parsley in a bowl and mix. Looks good, but part of what gives a Gyro it’s taste is the crisp on the meat from being on the Gyro broiler, would definitely opt for using the stove for your meat next time

I only follow the patriarchal aspects of Islam. Not the aspects that make you a cuck e.g. Abstaining from womanising, penetrating a sweet trap virgin butt and lowering your gaze.
