Calories: 320kcal

Ingredients

  • 1 ounce pork rind
  • 1 tablespoon oregano
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 3/8 ounce garlic
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 pound ground lamb
  • 1 cup plain greek yogurt (full-fat)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 1/2 ounces cucumber (full-fat)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill (full-fat)

Instructions

  • 1.
  • Pulse the pork rinds in a food processor until they are fully crushed.
  • Add the oregano, onion powder, salt, pepper, garlic, and then pulse again so that all the spices are mixed into the crumbs.
  • 2.
  • Add the ground beef and lamb to the food processor and process into a paste.
  • If your processor is not large enough then you may need to take some of the meat out and do it in batches.
  • If you have to batch it, then knead everything together in a large bowl when you are done.
  • 3.
  • Wrap the meat up tightly and allow to chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
  • 4.
  • Meanwhile, mix all of the ingredients for the Tzatziki sauce together and also store in the fridge.
  • Be sure to squeeze all of the water out of the cucumber after you grate it.
  • 5.
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F.
  • Unwrap the gyro loaf and place it on a pan to bake.
  • Flatten it out a bit so that it's not more than 3 inches thick.
  • I like using a casserole dish just in case some of the juices come out.
  • 6.
  • Bake for 40 -60 minutes, until it's browned and internal temperature has reached 165°F.
  • 7.
  • Allow to rest for ten minutes and set your oven to broil.
  • Then thinly slice all of the meat on a bias.
  • Broil for 5-10 minutes or until the edges start to crisp up.
  • 8.
  • Weigh all of the gyro meat and then divide by 8 in order to know how many ounces of cooked meat to serve on each flatbread.
  • 9.
  • Serve the meat on the coconut flatbreads with the tzatziki sauce, and any additional toppings that you would like.
