JUICY LAMB BURGERS
Lamb makes a wonderful burger. The natural flavors of the meat are complimented in this version by the spices, giving this a middle eastern feel. I like to serve these with recipe #461721 (see recipe 461721), but if you don't want to make the spread, top your burger with crumbled feta and whatever of the options below float your boat! I've written this to make 4 oz burgers, if you like yours larger, scale the recipe up to suit your appetite. Adapted from "Emeril at the Grill".

LAMB BURGERS
I bought a selection of lamb cuts from a CSA and got several one-pound packages of ground lamb. I made the last one tonight, and it was the best of all. Top them with Dijon mayo, tomato slices, and baby greens.

Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality lamb: The quality of the lamb you use will greatly impact the flavor of your burgers. Look for lamb that is a bright red color and has a firm texture.
- Grind your own lamb: Grinding your own lamb will give you more control over the texture and flavor of your burgers. If you don't have a meat grinder, you can ask your butcher to grind the lamb for you.
- Season the lamb well: Lamb has a mild flavor, so it's important to season it well. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
- Don't overmix the lamb: Overmixing the lamb will make it tough. Mix the lamb just until the ingredients are combined.
- Cook the burgers over medium heat: Cooking the burgers over medium heat will help them cook evenly without burning them.
- Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the burgers: The burgers are done when they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the burgers rest before serving: Letting the burgers rest before serving will help them retain their juices.
