Histori
Roasting the vertical slices of the stacked meat and cutting it while cooked was developed in Bursa by the Turks in the 19th century Ottoman Empire, and called the doner kebab (Turkish: dÃÆ'¶ner kebap ). After World War II, doner kebabs were introduced in Athens by immigrants from Anatolia and the Middle East. Different Greek variations develop, often made with pork and served with tzatziki sauce, which became known as gyros.
In 1971, gyros had become popular fast food in Athens, also in Chicago and New York City. In the US, gyros are usually made with beef and lamb. America's earliest gyros production factory known to have been opened by John Garlic in Milwaukee. He then sold his interest in business to Gyros, Inc. of Chicago, which together with Central Gyros Wholesale, and Kronos Foods, Inc., also from Chicago, started large-scale production in the mid-1970s.

Name
Its name comes from the Greek ????? ("circle" or "play"), and are Turkish words > dÃÆ'¶ner , from Turkish dÃÆ'¶nmek , also means "turn". It was originally called ?????? ( pronounced [do'ner] ) in Greek. The Greek word ?????? was criticized in the mid-1970s as Greece is Turkey. The word gyro or gyros has been used in English for at least 1971, and along with Greek language span lang = "el" title = "text">? ??? in Greek, eventually replacing the doner kebab for the Greek version of the dish. Some Greek restaurants in the US, such as Syntagma Square in New York City - which can be viewed briefly in the 1976 movie Taxi Driver - continue to use both doner kebab and gyros for the same dish, in the 1970s.
In contrast to other parts of Greece, in Athens the meat dishes pierced souvlaki are known as kalamaki . Ribbon wrapped sandwiches made with gyros or kalamaki are known as souvlaki .
The Greek pronunciation is ['? Iros] , but pronunciation in English is often or, sometimes /'??? ro?/ or /'j ?? ro?/.
The final form of Greek form is often reinterpreted as plural in American English, leading to the formation of a single "gyro". In Greek, "gyros" are masculine nouns, so it is used with "s" in a nominative case (Gyros are delicious), and without s in accusative (I want gyro).
Get started
Gyros can be considered a type of sandwich, and are distinguished from other semi-fold foods held by a full over-wrap but an unsafe bottom flap.
Traditionally, in Greece, meat used is pork or chicken, while in restaurants outside Greece, sheep and beef are also commonly used. The meat is cut into a flat, round, thin slice, which is then stacked over the spit and flavored. Fat is usually interspersed. Mixture of spices generally includes salt, hot and sweet peppers, white and black pepper, dried parsley, garlic powder, and oregano. Additional spices are sometimes added ( eg. cinnamon, nutmeg, cumin, aniseed, coriander, fennel, allspice, sumac).
The piece of meat is placed in a high vertical rotisserie, in the form of an inverted cone, which changes slowly in front of the heat source. Salads are grown on a vertical broiler, previously using charcoal in the "cage", now either gas or electricity. When the cone is cooked, the lower portion will be dispelled with the liquid coming out of the top. If the meat is not fatty enough, chunks of fat are added so that the burned meat always remains moist and crunchy. The roasting level can be adjusted by varying the heat strength, the distance between heat and meat, and spinning speed, allowing the cook to adjust to varying levels of consumption. The outside of the meat is sliced ​​vertically with thin and crisp shavings after ripe. It is generally served in a lightly baked, lightly baked piece of ribbon, rolled with tomato slices, chopped onions, fries, and tzatziki.
