If you remember way back when…. Okay, so January wasn’t that long ago but it feels like it. But back to our California vacation I was so very excited about getting some gyros. I have a love affair with gyros and not the ones at that popular college town restaurant in Michigan. The place starts with an M and those are not good gyros.
I was browsing my rediscovered favorite social media site, Pinterest, when I found this recipe for Slow Cooker Pork Gyros. I almost peed my pants because it was like fate. It needed a pork loin. Dude, I had just bought a pork loin a few weeks ago and had no plan for it. It just sounded like a great idea at the time. Gotta love it when I impulse buy at the grocery store. Normally I end up with some exotic fruit that I have no idea what to do with. At least this time it was some good ole pork.
Seriously though, I thought these were delicious. The pork has a Mediterranean spice to it that I want in a gyro but the coleslaw gave it the balance that you want out of a Tzatziki sauce, but it is a little different. My husband said they were good but not as good as I thought they were. Oh well, more leftovers for me.
