Avoid Gyro Fallout!

Position the Pita

Place the gyro diagonally on an 8″ piece of foil, the gyro’s base pointed toward the bottom left corner. (If you’re a lefty, reverse all instructions throughout.) Work your left hand under the foil to hold the gyro.

Practice Cornering

Fold the excess foil on the bottom of the gyro to keep the sauce inside. Use your right hand to fold the top left corner of the foil over the gyro about two-thirds from the top. The sandwich should feel secure.

Tighten the Jacket

Still holding the gyro tightly, bring the right tab over the left tab to close the sandwich. You should now be able to loosen your hold without the gyro coming undone. If that happens, repeat step 2.

Fold, Top, Chow

Crimp the excess foil that’s behind the gyro to expose the pita. At this point, holding the gyro vertically, you can load up the sandwich with more tzatziki sauce, olive oil, or vegetables. Eat up!
