The ingredients needed to make Gyro Meat W/Tzatziki Sauce:
- Take Gyro Meat
- Prepare 1 lb ground beef
- Make ready 1 lb ground lamb
- Take 1/2 large sweet onion finely grated
- Prepare 2 garlic cloves finely grated
- Make ready 1 tbsp za'atar
- Make ready 2 tsp Montreal seasoning
- Get 1 tsp dried oregano
- Prepare 1 tsp ground coriander
- Make ready Tzatziki Sauce
- Get 1 1/2 cups Greek yogurt
- Prepare 1/2 tsp dried dill
- Take 1/2 tsp granulated garlic

Steps to make Gyro Meat W/Tzatziki Sauce:
- Mix all gyro meat ingredients together in large mixing bowl and let sit overnight. If you don't have or like Montreal seasoning use salt and pepper to your taste. I just happen to prefer Montreal seasoning over plan salt and pepper on red meat.
- Blitz the meat mixture in a food processor to get to a fine consistency. I had to do it in 4 batches in my processor. Once it's all done press into a well greased meatloaf pan. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
- Steps 1 and 2 can all be all in one day. I just took the approach of letting the meat marinade and also resting to firm up after blitzing. Chili always tastes better the next day so why not gyro meat.
- Mix all the ingredients together for the Tzatziki sauce except the cucumber. Let sit overnight to allow the dried spices rehydrate a bit and flavor the yogurt. Don't over do the seasoning at the beginning because the flavors will intensify, if to strong more yogurt can be added.
- Pre heat the oven to 400°. Add the grated and drained cucumber to the tzatziki sauce.
- Bake the gyro meat covered for 15 minutes then uncover and bake for another hour. Keep an eye on it to make sure the meat doesn't get too much color, recover if needed to finishing cooking.
- Drain the fat off and let the gyro meat rest for a few minutes. Stand on a cutting board lengthwise and shave off what you're going to eat right away.
- Serve on homemade pitas with the tzatziki sauce and spinach pie on the side!
