Steps:
- For Paul's burger sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together all of the sauce ingredients.
- For the burgers: Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until almost smoking. Add about 1 tablespoon of oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter to the skillet. When the butter has melted, working in batches, open the buns and toast them in the skillet until they are golden brown.
- Wipe out the skillet and reheat it over medium-high heat. Season the burger patties with salt and pepper. Working in batches and using more of the oil and butter, place some of the burger patties in the skillet (do not crowd the pan). Cook until the burgers are well seared (about 3 minutes) and flip. Place a slice of cheese on each burger and continue to cook the burgers for 2 minutes longer. Cover the skillet to melt the cheese and steam the burgers. Continue until all the burgers are cooked, adding more oil and butter to the skillet between batches as necessary.
- Spread each side of the buns with about 2 teaspoons of Paul's burger sauce. Season the tomato slices with salt and pepper and place the tomatoes on the bottoms of the buns. Place the cooked burger patties on top of the tomatoes and then top the burgers with shredded lettuce. Secure the tops of the buns on the burgers with frilled toothpicks or small bamboo skewers.

THE BEST "MINI BURGERS" YOU WILL EVER TASTE
These mini burgers are so good! The recipe comes from the Neely's. Everyone I have made these for starts craving them and wants more and more. Try these as the recipe is written for the best results and then change it up if desired. I have to tell you, I don't like mustard and I love cheese. This uses dijon mustard and does not have cheese. I even tried them with the cheese and didn't like them as well. Hope you enjoy!

MINI MOROCCAN LAMB BURGERS ON BRIOCHE ROUNDS WITH LEMON YOGURT SAUCE
Provided by Dave Lieberman
Time 21m
Yield about 6 servings
Number Of Ingredients 13
Steps:
- Make the sauce:
- In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the yogurt and lemon zest and juice. Season, to taste, with a couple pinches of salt. Sauce can be made ahead of time and refrigerated until ready to use. Bring to room temperature before using.
- Cut the brioche into about 1/3 to 1/2-inch thick slices and then use a small glass to cut out as many circles as possible, about 3 inches in diameter, from each slice. Place the bread "buns" in an airtight container until ready to use so that they stay moist and soft.
- Make the burgers:
- Preheat the grill.
- Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl and work together until they are fully incorporated. Using a small ice cream scoop, scoop the mixture into little balls about 1 to 1 1/2 inches big and place them on a parchment paper-lined baking pan. Using your hands, flatten burgers to about 1/2-inch thick and just a couple inches in diameter.
- Once the grill is hot, place them on the grill and cook, about 2 to 3 minutes per side or until fully cooked through; cook time varies based on how hot your grill is.
- Place the cooked mini burgers on top of the cut brioche and add a piece of lettuce and a tomato slice. Top with a dollop of the lemon yogurt sauce and serve.

MINI DOMINICAN CHIMICHURRI BURGERS
I love the simplicity of this dish and the wonderful combo of flavors: tasty burgers, melting Queso Blanco cheese, avocado, tomato, wilted slaw and flavored mayo! It's a Dominican twist on chimichurri mixed into mini burgers as shared by Deidre Pujols, wife of St. Louis Cardinal slugger Albert Pujols, with our local Dierbergs supermarket. This recipe is packed with lively, not too spicy flavors typical of Dominican food. I've posted it exactly as it was published, but you could add a finely shredded carrot to the slaw, minced garlic to the burger mix and mustard to the mayo. I think these would be great with fresh slaw, too.
