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.

Steps:
- Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
- Thoroughly mix ground lamb, rosemary, thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper together in a bowl; shape into 4 patties.
- Cook the burgers until they are beginning to firm and are hot and slightly pink in the center, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Alternately, you can cook the burgers to your desired degree of doneness. Rest burgers while assembling toppings.
- Mix mayonnaise and mustard together in a small bowl; spread 1 tablespoon of the mixture onto one side of each bun. Put a burger onto each bun and top with tomato and greens. Sandwich with remaining bun half to serve.

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".

Steps:
- Combine lamb, shallot, garlic, salt, cumin, allspice, cayenne, and cinnamon in a mixing bowl. Mix thoroughly to combine the seasonings and the meat.
- Form the meat mix into 4 patties about 1/2 inch thick. Cover the patties with plastic wrap, and chill for at least two hours. This will allow the spices to completely season the meat.
- Prepare a grill to medium high heat. Brush both sides of the burgers with the oil, to keep them from sticking to the grill.
- Grill the patties for about 4 minutes on each side for medium doneness (or adjust to your preferred temp). Remove from heat, and cover to keep warm while you toast the buns.
- Place the buns, cut side down, on the grill for 1 to 2 minutes to toast.
- Place the burgers on the toasted buns, and garnish as desired. serve immediately.
Tips:
- Choose the right lamb: Use ground lamb with a fat content of at least 20% for juicy, flavorful burgers.
- Season the lamb well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and cumin to season the lamb.
- Don't overwork the lamb: Overworking the lamb will make the burgers tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
- Form the burgers gently: Handle the lamb gently when forming the burgers. Pressing too hard will make them dense.
- Cook the burgers over medium heat: Cooking the burgers over medium heat will help them cook evenly without burning.
- Use a meat thermometer: Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the burgers are cooked to your desired doneness.
- Let the burgers rest before serving: Let the burgers rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices redistribute and make the burgers more tender.
