Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 325 F degrees.
- Add all the dry rub ingredients to a small bowl and stir to combine.
- Rub the dry rub all over the brisket on both sides, using your hands.
- Add the olive oil to a large skillet (mine is 10 1/2 inches in diameter) and heat over medium-high heat. Add the brisket to the skillet and sear on both sides until browned.
- Turn off the heat and add the beef broth to the skillet. Cover the skillet with aluminum foil and place the skillet in the oven on the middle rack. Bake for 4 hours.
- Remove the skillet from the oven and remove the aluminum foil. Place the brisket on a cutting board then cover with the aluminum foil and let the brisket rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
- Slice the brisket as thinly as you can.
- Assemble gyros. Warm up pita breads first in the microwave for about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Place a pita bread on a piece of parchment paper. Add a few slices of brisket, then top with some tzatziki sauce and finally with Greek salad. Roll up the wrap, enclosing it with the parchment paper. Twist the end of the paper if needed. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

GROUND BEEF GYROS
If your family likes gyros as much as mine, they'll love this easy version that's made with ground beef instead of lamb. I found the recipe in a newspaper and adapted it to fit our tastes. They're very much like the ones served at a local restaurant. A cucumber yogurt sauce adds an authentic finishing touch. -Ruth Stahl, Shepherd, Montana

Steps:
- Place red onion in a food processor and process until finely chopped.
- Remove the onion from the food processor and place in a tea towel, squeezing to remove all the juices.
- Return the onion back to the food processor with the remaining ingredients and pulse for approximately 1 minute until you get a paste like consistency. TIP: The gyro meat mixture will form together in the food processor, similar to a ball of dough.
- Place mixture in a glass baking dish. Flatten and smooth the meat into a nice meatloaf.
- Place in a water bath and cook at 325°F for 60-75 minutes or you have an internal temp of 165°F-170°F.
- Once removed from the oven, drain the fat.
- Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes and place on a wire rack (I also put a pan under the rack to catch any drippings) and place a heavy object on top to compress the gyros meat. I used a cast iron skillet with 3 cans inside the skillet for additional weight.
- Remove the weight and let rest for 30 minutes.
- Slice the meat into desired sized slices.
- Place meat slices on a baking sheet and broil for 3-5 minutes until crispy!
- Serve in pita bread with lettuce, sliced onion, sliced tomato and this Authentic Greek Tzatziki Sauce.
- Enjoy!
