Directions

  1. Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.

  2. Thoroughly mix ground lamb, rosemary, thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper together in a bowl, shape into 4 patties.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

Recipe Yield

4 1/4-pound burgers

Recipe Note

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.
