It was ok. The garlic mayo overpowered the pork. next time i'll only use 2 cloves instead of 3. I also had to add some water to the pot so the pork would not dry out.

I tend to put in a cup or two of chicken stock (or whatever I have handy, sometimes just water) which gets drained out at the end - sometimes I thicken it to make an "au jus" style sandwich and use that as the sauce instead of the mayo, or keep it as stock to use later. Spice it a little differently, throw on some barbeque sauce instead, and you've got some good pulled pork!! Very versatile!

LOVE THIS! I like to add sliced onions, just like regular gyros. The mayo is better the longer it sits to meld the flavors. I make this often.
