What makes it American ?


Gyros in Greece is a spit with marinated slices of pork (typically neck/collar) stacked on top of each other, grilled and sliced off layer by layer from the vertically rotating skewer.

 

American gyros is a kind of seasoned meatloaf, comprised of seasoned minced lamb, beef or a mixture thereof, precooked, sliced and fried (or grilled and sliced).
 

Thus, the choice of meat, the resulting texture and the employed cooking method will render it “American gyro(s)”.
