Maryland Gyro Burger – Just in time for Memorial Day Weekend!
This recipe is delicous!!!!!! Have you ever had a traditional GYRO, you know with grilled lamb, cucumbers and a yogurt sauce.

Burgers:

14 oz. ground beef
14 oz. ground lamb
4 sesame seed Kaiser Rolls
6 oz. feta cheese
2 plum tomatoes
1 head romaine lettuce
Salt & Pepper

Mix the ground beef and lamb together and form into 4 – 7oz. patties. Season with salt and pepper and set aside. Crumble the feta cheese, thinly slice the tomatoes and shred the romaine.

Old Bay Cucumber Sauce:

One 16 oz. container Greek style yogurt
1 medium European cucumber
2 cloves garlic – chopped
2 tablespoons fresh dill -
Zest from one lemon
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Old Bay Seasoning

Peel and slice the cucumber into thin slices. Place the slices in between 2 paper towels and remove some of the juices. In a small bowl add the garlic, dill, lemon juice, olive oil, vinegar and the Old Bay Seasoning. Mix together well. Last stir the cucumbers into the yogurt mixture. Adjust seasoning if needed. Cool in refrigerator.

How to put it all together…

Pre-heat grill to medium heat and begin grilling the burgers. Cook burgers to an internal temperature of 145F. Do I need to remind you to flip the burgers (didn’t think so).
Toast the buns on the grill just after you have removed the burgers. Place one burger on each of the rolls and top with the feta cheese, lettuce and tomato. Last spoon the Old Bay cucumber sauce on top and place the top roll. What you should have is a 4 to 5 inch tall towering burger. Serve with your favorite salads and other Memorial Day weekend culinary delights.
