Greek Gyros how to marinate and cook on a charcoal spit

- With the help of Nick the spit master we show you how to marinate and prepare Greek Gyros and then how to cook it on a charcoal spit.
I used 7 kg of lamb shoulder and 7kg of chicken thigh which is enough to feed 20 people.
Nick has shared his marinate recipe, however you can adjust the quantities to your taste.
Nick the Spit Master's secret Gyros spice mix:
Mix spices together into a jar.
• 2 tbs Chicken spice
• 2 tbs Steak spice
• 2 tbs Cumin
• 1 tbs Paprika ground
• 1tbs Garlic powder
• 2 tbs Parsley dried
• 4 tbs Oregano dried
• 4 tbs Thyme dried
• 1 tbs Salt
• 1/2 tbs Black pepper
Add the spices and two tins of crushed tomatoes into a tub or in this case the meat bags, mix well and allow to marinade overnight or 24hrs, the longer the better.
It will take 1.5hrs before the meat starts to cook on the spit. You do the first cut and then every 15 mins or when the gyros has browned.
Nick the spit master uses a serrated bread knife to cut 1/4 inch deep slices .
I can tell that he has done this many times before, very professional getting the heat right and making sure that the meat is all cooked at the same time. It looked delicious.
Clever. Looks like there is wheel from washing machine and power window motor to rotate the skewer. Looks so delicious! This make me want to go Geece with my girlfriend to eat and admire the nature and culture.
Did my first last week. It was great. Thank you Spit Master 🙏❤️
Well done men, looks delicious and professionally done.
I just bought a cypress spit. I need Greek friends to show me how to use it properly!! I’ll definitely give this recipe a whirl. Thanks ev. It looks amazing
First Greeks make gyros from pork (neck) or chicken and i never saw anywhere they are mix it, they keep it separate and if someone want mixed then mix from two different gyros directly in pita bread. About spice this mix of spice i would say is combination of classic and add some things that are not usual but sound good and i am sure it taste very well, would add lemon juice what are missing from classic set of spice for gyros. Good point in this version of gyros is that he left meat to rest what is crucial for getting gyros well.
I love the dog sitting there, hoping a piece may fall!
this is why comments are a must
Thank you, you gentleman are true hellenic gods of bbq!
i was not able to find lamb gyros during my time in greece and i went to many places. it was all pork. i'm glad to see this video and the use of lamb.
I got the same stare nick is doing at the start when i walked into victoria yeros in marrickville.pissed my self laughing
That was the funniest, most awkward thing I've seen in a long time, thank you! I loved it :)
They’re going to call me the spit master now! Thanks for the tips!
Any time!
Nicko the Greek using heatbeads!! He's come a long way since the village days
Hi mate, made this recipe today for lunch. Changed the lamb to pork but still really tasty. Just like the kebabs on a Friday night. Cheers mate, keep up the good work!
I need to try this 😊
Looks amazing 👍🏻 thanks for the tips gonna give this a go
a lot of people overdo it with the coals, Nick did not use many here at all and the gyro came up trumps. Thats experience.
This video has made me extremely hungry , great video and great looking Gyros.👍👍👍
Great equipment, great results, look delicious. Acting was almost as bad as Neighbours. 😂. Spit master looks a bit shell shocked.
Looks amazing.
nick had one of those looks like he used to be the head tester at the flash bang grenade factory.
he sure knows what he's doing with the spit though.
Thank you for sharing this. It looks delicious!
Beautiful. Bravo Niko!
I cracked up after 2 seconds when he said the guy’s name was nick 😂
Thanks Nick for sharing your amazing recipe 😀
you guys are the masters mate......classic video couldn't stop laughing
the wink 😅😅😅
Keep it up one day you will get the 1 million subscribers
Have no idea what 'chicken spice' or 'steak spice' is. Great technique though. Thanks.
Spice mixes you can find at super markets
its like the karate kid. The yiros kid. I have watched this video like 400 times and wish i was eating it.
I believe these blokes have smoked too much of that outback wacky weed. Epic upload, and very funny too watch.Cheers
The dog is making attention not knowing he will be the next on the spit ;-) :-) Great stuff guy, awesome bbq. Greeks as their best !
Manfred Mann the mutt is lucky hes not in China !!
Thank you for this VIDEO!
great work guys !!
Thanks mate good video
Yum do you leave the skin on the chicken or off?
Skin on
Lounge and dining table in the garage. Thats real noice. Food prepared on the garage floor 😉
Far out!
Super Nikos!
What kind of string..
Nick funny 😄
what happened to the string??? did it get removed?
Thanks for watching. The string was removed prior to the first cut being made.
You can see it when he's cutting it. Lol
Looks great mate....
So do you raise the spit to cook for an hour, put it down low then cook for another hour and a half before beginning to slice, or cook for an hour in total before beginning to slice? And how long would you say it took all up to complete the cook? I’m doing one this weekend based on this epic video. Thanks!
Great video guys, looks delicious! Some quick questions: am i correct in assuming the steak spice goes in the lamb bag & the chicken spice for the chicken bag? Or, all together in each bag? Also, is that 1 tin of tomatoes for each bag? Thanx in advance
I've watched this video over 20 times.. I think I need help.
What is steak spice. What is Chicken spice. You have listed Chicken and Steak spice twice in your ingredients. Please explain and is this a mistake.
How do I make chicken and steak spice from scratch ? and do we use it twice like your list suggests ? Love your work guys 🤙🤙
I wonder that as well no I looked at the side bar and it’s only the first two
I'm surprised there only using heat beads I normally use mallee root charcoal
Last real gyro i ate was in 1979. Now i see they add french fries in the gyros in Greece. Not many authentic Greek restaurants where im at now. East coast Florida
Subbed!
Brother the correct is ' charcoal pit ' ,and not spit
Great vídeo. Congrat's
Thank you!
2 tbsp of chicken and steak spice are n the recipe twice?
Good job Nick. But the dog is still waiting for it's bite!
Tell me where i can get that exact spit!!! Its a work of art.

what happened to the string? When was it removed?
ασχετος τελιος...!!!!!!!!!!!
I did not expect Nick to sound like crocodile dundee!
What about this string I don't see where they removed the string I don't want to cut it
When I was a kid I always ate gyros at a local Greek restaurant. However, it was always 100% lamb meat. Has this changed over the years? Even when I lived in Germany, it wasn't lamb meat. The white cucumber sauce was an excellent balancer for the gamey taste of lamb!
It's normally pork or chicken, at least in Greece, it used to be lamb as well in Greece but now few make it. In other countries, due to the Easter lamb spit roast custom in Greece, people may have connected Greek meat dishes with lamb, and Greek immigrant grill shop owners do what they can with what's popular or easier to find.
That white cucumber sauce is called tzatziki (pronounced more like jah-jeeh-kee), and its key ingredients are Greek yogurt, garlic, cucumber and olive oil.
We mix the meat with chicken thigh and lamb shoulder so as to reduce the strong lamb flavour, any meat goes. I found this to the best mix. The cucumber sauce is called tzatzaki, it's a greek yoghurt with garlic and shredded cucumber. Combined they taste fantastic.
Can I ask when you cut the string off?
Before the first cut???
Hi, looks great, where can I buy a spit setup like yours, I'm in Victoria? Tony
14 kilos of meat for 20 people? This is my kind of party :)
I was a little confused with the crushed tomato part. Is it 2 cans all up or 2 cans to each bag?
Thanks.
So you mixed the lamb and chicken on same stick?
BEST AUSSIE VID EVA
Hey may i ask, how do i cut the lamb shoulder if i were to stack them exactly like yours, should it be a thin-like fillet? If it does how much is approximately the thickness?
I have the same question
Is the secret adding 4tbs of steak spice and 4tbs of chicken spice?
Does anyone know....if Coles and Woolworths sell chicken spice. Or maybe another store that sells it.... please 🖐️👍😀
Nick is frozon from the camera
love this guys bravo but what is steak and chicken spice ?
Probably these two things www.masterfoods.com.au/products/masterfoods-steak-seasoning-45g and www.masterfoods.com.au/products/masterfoods-mild-chicken-seasoning-49g
You mention steak and chicken spice twice, was that meant to be, only asking before i attempt to make this👍👍👍
1:16 His wife is going to be angry as fuck when she sees her dancing pole.
could you clarify the recipe you have chicken spice and steak spice written 2 times in the recipe is it 2 tbs of each or 4
?
I wrote the ingredients twice, I have removed the double up. It's 2 tbs Chicken spice
and 2 tbs Steak spice
Evs Shed thanks mate appreciate the reply
what is chicken and steak spice mean ?
Watching this is pure torture, the nearest one of these from me is a 50 minute drive. I'm leaving now.
Is that flavoured string or did they remove it. ?
Could you please tell me what you mean by chicken and and steak spice?, are they premade herbs you just grab from the super market or?
Probably these two things www.masterfoods.com.au/products/masterfoods-steak-seasoning-45g and www.masterfoods.com.au/products/masterfoods-mild-chicken-seasoning-49g
Need a Cypress spit
Do you remove string before first cut ?
I have the same question?
The world's luckiest dog
Could you tell me what exactly is chicken spice and steak spice? Is it powdered boullion or is it a specific spice used to season chicken or steak?
I buy the mix from the local supermarket and it says chicken spice and steak spice on the label.
How you cut the meat with the string all around?
I have the same question?
Nice. what is the knife you're using?
We use a serrated knife with small fine teeth, which cuts the meat easier. We tried an electric knife but this chews the meat. The hand knife has better control.
Wow. Great video.
Are you Greek or Australian?
Unfortunately I don't have enough friends to eat 14kg of meat so I'll try a smaller scale later this month on my charcoal souvla.
All the best.
Great idea, hope it all goes well.
Australian with a Greek heritage.
The description of Gyros spices is wrong. Chicken spice and steak spice appears 2 time.
Can you give me right recipe please? Thank
I wrote the ingredients twice, I have removed the double up. It's 2 tbs Chicken spice
and 2 tbs Steak spice
What is chicken and steak spice??
where do you get the wheel on the end of the spit rod
This is a 9 inch aluminium pulley and I got it from a pulley store. You can do an internet search for pulley store near your area. I have videos on the spit itself please check them out.
what happens with the string when you cut the outside pieces off ?
Floss your teeth
@@derekmartin8498 hahaha so funny
Se você colocar a receita em português fica melhor
best puppo
I am pretty sure...a Gyro can be made with a variety of meet...I do how ever love the lamb and beef blend....yum..with a feta sauce..
U should have told use about the knife u used
Very nice Ev ... how long did you need to cook it for?
Thanks for watching, the gyros is placed on the spit on the top level of the spit for an hour and then brought down to the lowest level, the first cut is about an hour later to get the crust off. Cut every 15 to 20 mins after that.
@@evsshed5034 how long do you run the bbq for before adding the spit? Is it once you see the charcoal becoming white? Also what fuel do you use?
What is Chicken Spice? Please be more specific.
I buy chicken spice from the supermarket and it it says chicken spice on the packet.
Good 👍 VIEDO makes me feel
HUNGRY
exactly what happened to the string????
The string gets removed prior to cutting the meat. I had to edit is out.
Food porn, the dog know what's going on
Chicken (white meat) and lamb (red meat) is that food posioning straight away when its raw. .
food poising does not occur from having 2 different raw meats its when one is contaminated and then touches the other 2 pieces of clean meat touching is fine especially just prior to cooking
You don’t eat it raw though do you
I guess they didn't include a part where they remove the string...
Thanks for watching. The string removal ended up on the editing floor.
I presumed it went with the "crust".
(Which means I would have ended up picking the string from my teeth.)
Нормально
I Love yeeros ..But Hellenic yeeros is with pork or chicken and not lamb..
Cheers
