Greek Lamb Burgers
This Greek Lamb Burger recipe combines everything we love about gyro sandwiches and burgers in one delicious recipe. It's a great recipe to use ground lamb in a way that shows off the flavor of the lamb in a unique way. It's definitely more than just meat on bun!
Full disclosure - we filmed this recipe the day after the Milwaukee Bucks won the NBA Championship. Of course, we had to dedicate this recipe to our favorite Greek person of all time - Giannis Antetokounmpo. Giannis, we love you, stay forever.

I Made The MOST Flavorful Lamb Burger in Existence
This video was created in partnership with the American Lamb Board.
This tasty grilled American lamb pub burger uses a delicious blend of Mediterranean seasonings and spices and is cooked to perfection. You will absolutely love the flavor of this burger.
Not only was this perfectly cooked, but I also took it to the next level by serving it on a toasted Kaiser bun with Arugula, pickles, homemade tzatziki sauce, pickled red onions, crumbled feta cheese, and chopped fresh mint. Talk about a flavor explosion.
This came together from start to finish in under 30 minutes, and it is absolutely worth it, I promise you.
