Pork gyros on the bge

Posts: 1,932
I needed to do something different than my usual cooks, time to expand a bit. I'm trying to make Greek style pork gyros on the egg. I'll buy pita bread, everything else from scratch.
Tzatziki was easy enough, just be sure to get real Greek yogurt (recommend fage). Resting in the fridge for 2+ hours.
I got a 4 pound bone in butt, deboned, sliced and spiced. Sprinkle with white wine vinegar. The log is assembled and in the fridge.
The tough part will be slicing, keeping it together, and putting it back on the egg to brown the exposed side. Sharp knife will help, but it will still be a challenge.

Ok, this worked out! I went ahead and cooked the log to 165 it, and sliced up the while thing at once.
Served with sliced onion, cucumber, and tomato, all drizzled with salt, lemon, and oregano.
Side of smashed potatoes.
Thx for looking.
The sides and tzatziki are so good, I could do leftover pulled pork this way.
