Stuffed Greek Burger

By 6 Comments

Kay, I love a good burger, like LOVE a good burger, and I love greek food, and cheese, and burgers…  oh wait, I think I said that already.  ANYWAY, when we decided to get away for the weekend with my sister and her family we decided to make hot dogs for the kiddo’s and decided to create Stuffed Greek Burgers for ourselves – they turned out BETTER than I expected, seriously SO good!

this stuffed greek burger is made with lamb, beef and pork and filled with goat cheese, feta grilled onions and greek olives. Top with tzatziki sauce, tomatoes and red onions for a great greek flavor.

Three meats create a perfectly moist burger that comes together wonderfully.  I added the same spices I use to make gyros for a great greek base.  Then comes the fun, the FILLING!!! what to go with… Kalamata olives and feta were obvious choices.  I added grilled onions, spinach and goats cheese as well, SOOOO good! Then top with my Tzatziki sauce, thinly sliced red onion, tomato and some kind of lettuce (I like romaine or spinach).

Filled with feta, goat cheese, gilled onions and greek olives and topped with tzatziki sauce this stuffed greek burger tastes AMAZING

Stuffed burgers are messy and fantastic. This stuffed greek burger is made up of three ground meats and filled with greek cheese, onions and olives, seriously perfection

My Brother in law made his burger with the lettuce on the bottom bun, so the tatziki sauce wouldn’t make the bun soggy, I have to admit it was a good trick!  Next time I’ll get a picture without the tzatziki sauce on the burger, cause it just merged with the filling as it oozed out and it’s hard to see, but MAN was it tasty! I can’t wait to make them again!

What is YOUR favorite burger flavor/style? I need more!
