GYRO BURGERS

This is not your ordinary hamburger! If you like hamburgers and you love Gyro sandwiches, then you may enjoy this combination of those two ideas. Adapted from "365 Ways to Cook Hamburger." I borrowed this cookbook from a local library and copied out this tasty recipe. Purists beware - this is not pretending to be an authentic recipe from any particular culture, but is merely influenced by the flavors & style of Greek cuisine. Prep is about 15 minutes plus 2 hours chilling time. Cook time is a guess and varies based on how thik you make each patty - also, even though the original suggested 4 huge patties, you can certainly make smaller ones and just cook them for a little less time. You can broil these if you prefer.

Steps:

  • In a bowl, combine lamb, beef, bread crumbs, minced onion, garlic, allspice, coriander, cumin.
  • Add just 1 tsp of the salt and 1/8 tsp of the pepper and mix well.
  • Form into 4 patties, cover and chill 2 hours.
  • In another bowl, whisk together vinegar, oregano, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/8 tsp pepper.
  • Gradually whisk in the oil until blended well.
  • Add tomatoes, sliced onions, and cucumbers and stir to coat.
  • Cover and let marinate at least 2 hours (no more than 8 hours).
  • When you are ready to cook your burgers, oil& preheat your grill and grill as you would any hamburger (10-15 minutes or so- or until no pink remains but burger is still moist).
  • When burgers are fully cooked, slit pita pockets open on the sides to form open pockets (you can warm the pita up by setting on the side of grill briefly) and place a burger inside.
  • Have bowls of the tomato topping, the shredded lettuce, and some tzatziki(a Middle Eastern style yogurt sauce) on the table for guests to add as desired.
  • The yogurt sauce is available in the dairy case near dips or at the deli counter or some markets or you can prepare a homemade version.

3/4 lb lean ground lamb
1/2 lb lean ground beef
1 cup fresh breadcrumb
1/2 cup minced onion
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/3 cup olive oil
4 plum tomatoes, chopped
1 small onion, slivered

  • Heat an outdoor gas grill on medium for 20 to 30 minutes or so, meanwhile, prepare the meat mixture, pita (or buns) and fixings for the burgers.
  • Add the ground lamb (or mix of lamb and beef) to a mixing bowl. Add grated onions, garlic, fresh herbs, oregano, cumin, paprika and cayenne. Season with kosher salt and pepper. Add a generous drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, and mix until everything is well combined.
  • Divide the meat mixture into 8 equal balls. Using both hands, work meat into smooth spheres, then lightly press to form into patties. Arrange the patties on a large tray or dish, and with the tip of your thumb, press lightly to form a shallow, somewhat wide, depression into the center of each patty. (see cook's tip #2 below) Cover and refrigerate until grill is ready.
  • Lightly oil grill grates and arrange the burger patties on top. Grill over medium heat, covered, for 4 to 5 minutes on each side, turning once midway through cooking (internal temperature for a medium burger should register 160 degrees F. Adjust cooking time according to your desired doneness.)
