Steps:
- Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the hot coals evenly over the bottom. Heat 2 flat cast-iron skillets over direct heat.
- For the burgers and onions: Combine the lamb, coriander and mint in a large bowl. Form the meat mixture into 4 equal thin half-moon shaped patties. Season the patties with salt and pepper on both sides. Add a splash of oil to the cast-irons. Cook the patties 3 to 5 minutes, allowing the meat to get a nice crust. Flip and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the burgers from the heat and let rest 2 to 3 minutes before assembling the burgers.
- Meanwhile, drizzle the onions with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill, flipping once, until softened and charred, about 5 minutes.
- For the tzatziki: Add the yogurt, garlic, lemon zest, cucumber, dill and mint to a large bowl and mix to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
- To serve: Spread some tzatziki over each pita, add a patty to one half of each pita, top with some grilled onion and add some chopped tomato and lettuce. Fold the other half of each pita over. Serve!

Steps:
- Mix Tzatziki ingredients in a medium sized bowl and set in the fridge to keep cool.
- Dice tomato and cut thin slices of the red onion and set aside.
- Get your grill/pan/etc hot.
- Mix meat ingredients together. Divide meat into 8oz (1/2 lb) portions (or you can use smaller 6oz portions). Flatten into patties that are about 1/2 inch larger than the buns.
- Put a thumbprint in the middle of the patty so it doesn't puff up when cooking.
- Grill your burgers about 4min on the first side.
- Flip burgers. Put the buns face down on the grill. Cook until you reach the correct temp (140F for medium), usually about 2 to 4 minutes.
- Top burger with tzatziki, onions and tomatoes and enjoy!

GYRO BURGERS
The mild seasonings in these burgers give them mass appeal. Pita bread is a nice change of pace from the usual hamburger buns.

TURKEY GYRO BURGERS
I wanted to make a sandwich at home that tasted like a gyro but didn't have all the fat. These are best grilled or broiled and served with chopped tomatoes, sliced cucumbers, and red onions, and dressed with ranch dressing. They are good on buns or pita.

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.

CHICKEN "GYRO" BURGERS
I call these gyro burgers because I used a recipe for beef gyro burgers as the inspiration to create this version. These are in no way authentic Greek food, however, they are absolutely delicious!

Steps:
- 1.) Place ground chicken in a bowl, along with the garlic, onion, Italian seasoning, 1 TBSP olive oil and lemon juice.
- 2.) Here, I mix everything up with my hands, and form this mixture into 4 patties. You can feel free to mix with a spoon if you prefer before forming them into patties by hand.
- 3.) Place a small amount (about 1-2 TBSP) of olive oil in a frying pan. Once the pan is hot, place patties into the pan (I suggest using a larger frying pan if doing them all at once, so they're not touching too much during cooking).
- 4.) Keep a close eye on these and flip as needed, as they will cook quickly.
- 5.) While these patties are cooking, warm the pitas in the oven or microwave. Once warmed, spread a small amount of dill dip (or your condiment of choice) on the pita.
- 6.) Once the patties are cooked, place a patty on one side of each pita, and top patties with a slice of tomato and lettuce. Close the pita together, making a "roll" of sorts for your chicken burger.
- 7.) Enjoy!

- For the burgers, process the onion in a food processor until only small pieces remain, scraping down the sides 3-4 times. Add the ground turkey, garlic, marjoram, rosemary, sea salt, and pepper – process to thoroughly combine.
- Stir in the crumbled feta cheese by hand and form into patties. You can do 4 patties like regular sized burgers or 12 for mini burgers.
