I followed the recipe exactly and the gyros turned out great! The only thing I would change is to add a little more garlic to the yogurt sauce.

These gyros were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would have preferred to use a fattier cut of pork.

The gyros were good, but the yogurt sauce was a bit too tangy for me. I would have preferred a milder sauce.

These gyros were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I would have preferred to use leaner pork.
