Helpful Hints
- Cut 4 squares of parchment paper or nonstick foil and press patties on to foil. This makes placing on the grill easier and keeps the burgers from sticking to each other.
- Use an instant-read thermometer to test doneness.
- Serving the burgers with tzatziki sauce is one of the best ways to eat this burger. It isn't quite a gyro burger without it. :)
