These burgers were a complete disaster! They fell apart on the grill and were completely inedible.

I found the burgers to be a bit bland. I think I would add more spices next time.

The burgers were a bit dry, but the tzatziki sauce helped to make them more moist.

These lamb burgers were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them.

I made these burgers for dinner last night and they were delicious! The only thing I would change is to add a bit more salt to the burgers.

I love that this recipe uses ground lamb instead of beef. It gives the burgers a more unique flavor.

The burgers were easy to make and cooked evenly. The tzatziki sauce was a great complement to the lamb.
