I was craving some Greek food one night, but was also interested in a cheeseburger. I had some Mediterranean-esque ingredients in my fridge. Thankfully, the burgers came out AMAZING! Every person that has had the burgers though they were amazing, too. Enjoy! Serve with yogurt sauce, toasted hamburger buns, lettuce, and tomato. Try also with ground lamb.

This recipe is one that I have adopted. The review from SusieD stated the wine was a bit over powering so I substituted beef broth. This worked out nicely also.

Categories     Cheese

Time 35m

Yield 6 burgers, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 lbs 90% lean ground beef
1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
1/2 cup tomatoes, chopped
2 tablespoons red onions, chopped
2 tablespoons ripe olives, chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
6 whole gyro style pita bread (6 inches)
6 lettuce leaves
6 slices tomatoes
1 small seedless cucumber, sliced
1/3 cup cucumber ranch salad dressing

Steps:

  • Shape beef evenly into 12 patties.
  • In a small bowl, combine the feta cheese, chopped tomato, onion, olives, oil and oregano.
  • Top six of the patties with the cheese mixture and then cover with remaining patties and firmly press edges to seal. Sprinkle with salt and pepper for seasoning.
  • Grill patties, covered over medium hot heat for 6-8 minutes on each side or until a meat thermometer reads 160F and juices are clear.
  • Serve each burger on a pita with lettuce, sliced tomato, cucumber and cucumber ranch dressing.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ground beef. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your burgers.
  • Season the beef liberally. Don't be afraid to use plenty of salt, pepper, and other spices. This will help to develop a delicious crust on the burgers.
  • Don't overwork the beef. Overworking the beef will make it tough. Just mix it until it is evenly combined.
  • Form the burgers into patties that are about 1/2-inch thick. This will help them to cook evenly.
  • Cook the burgers over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from burning on the outside and staying raw on the inside.
  • Flip the burgers only once. Flipping them too often will make them dry and tough.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the burgers. They are done when they reach an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the burgers rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the burgers.

Conclusion:

Greek burgers are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a summer cookout or a weeknight dinner. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that your family and friends will love.
