Step 2
• Preheat grill to high heat.
  
  Remove the pork from the marinade and season with salt and pepper. Grill until golden brown on all sides and cooked through to an internal temperature of 150°F (66°C). Let rest for 5 minutes, then slice into 0.5 cm (1/4 inch) thick slices.

• Assemble the gyros by drizzling each pita with yogurt sauce, then adding the salad greens, red onion, and meat. Drizzle with more sauce and sprinkle with oregano.
