Gyro Meat (SLICED) 4 lbs (1.8kg)

It doesn't come in 2 packages and are very thin slices

The 4 pounds of sliced meat itself are contained in a single cardboard box; no vacuum seal or even plastic wrap. That box is placed in another box that is lined with styrofoam sides, styrofoam peanuts, and three frozen "ice" paks. It was shipped FedEx 2 Day (that's what the label says), not Overnight or next business day, which begs the question, what exactly did the $52 in shipping charges for 4 lbs of meat and minimal packing materials actually go towards? I think I know, and it wasn't shipping.Years ago "Grecian Delight" (the brand on the box) was sold in a local supermarket chain in Gyro Kit boxes - each contained a pack of sliced gyro meat, one pita, and a small container of tzatziki sauce. I loved them, but I haven't seen the kits in decades and was happy to find a way to once again stock the freezer with gyros-in-waiting.The gyro meat itself, which I have ordered before, tastes just like ... gyro meat! As I said, I love gyros, but there's no place nearby where I can drop in and enjoy one. So I have ordered the product in the past, but in this case, I've ordered for the last time.I've gotten the individual 1 lb vacuum packets before 3 at a time and they've arrived frozen or nearly frozen. Not so this box. The meat was not only thawed, it was only slightly cool. I'm afraid I'm going to be throwing it out. Too risky. For $52 shipping charges, it should have arrived in perfect condition. Overnight. I won't make this mistake again. I can't afford to.

Forgot expedited delivery and it is hot here in the South but the meat was cool and still very good. The cucumber sauce is a great addition. I didn't have any pita bread but this is still great on white dollar rolls, sub rolls or wheat bread. Can't wait to try it on pita bread tonight! Highly recommended.

For $60 shipping we got the meat boxes packed in a peanuts with a few 4 inch cold packs thrown in. It was left at our back door, where most deliveries are made through the front door. We found it the next day. For all that it still smelled and tasted fantastic. Will not use that vendor again.

Good taste. A little dry.

I love a great gyros platter, but there aren't many Greek restaurants/pizzarias where I live. So I was excited to see this offered here! The meat was still frozen when it arrived, and the styrofoam-lined shipping box can be reused, ice packs and all. I bought it pre-sliced, and the slices separate easily from each other in the box so you can keep it frozen and just use a little at a time. My only complaint is that I like thicker slices; but in terms of flavor, well, I challenge you to make it at home yourself and have it taste this good. I have a feeling I will keep a box of this on hand from now on. One note: the box does not contain heating instructions. I tried it in the broiler and over-browned it. I wish I had read the instructions here before that first attempt!

Have bought multiple times just got more I like it alot

Product was moldy and not frozen on arrival .
