Yes, my hubby and I made the Feta Cheese Burger. It was fantastic! Kinda had a Gyro flare about it, as you would imagine with cucumbers on the burger. It was the feta sauce that was wonderful. Great burger. We made the Outrageous Greek Beans to go with it. They were just 'beans' regular old beans. Nothing special.

Issue was June 2007 No.63

Could anyone post the recipe? Sounds good...when I had my own restaurant we did a lunch special with a "Greek Burger" in a pita that was wonderful and sold like crazy and was asked for to the point I had to put it on the menu...

Just wondering how this one looks and if we'd like it at home.

4 oz. feta cheese, crumbled

2 lb. ground chuck
salt pepper, dried oregano
4 slices red onion (1/4" thick)
prepared feta sauce

SERVE ON: Hoagie rolls, split, toasted
Red leaf lettuce
Tomato slices
Thinly sliced cucumber

  • 1. Process feta, cream cheese and yogurt until smooth. Add pepperocinis, scallions, zest and seasonings; Pulse to coarsely chop, then set aside.
  • 2. Shape ground chuck into 8 4-oz portions on wax paper using a fork to form them into patties the size of the hoagie rolls. Season with salt, pepper and oregano.
  • 3. Top 4 of the patties with slice of onion, cover with remaining patty and seal edges with fork. Season again. Grilled on oiled grate for 4 minutes. flip and cook 2 minutes more. Spoon 1/4 cup feta sauce on each burger. Grill another 2 minutes

In the photos in the magazine they make 8 same-size patties, season the tops. Top 4 of them with red onions. Then press the seasoned sides together and seal with fork. Then they season the tops of the meat again.

Why thank you...these look great. I should be able to get Holly to try these. She loves most "Greek" things I cook and this is pretty good looking.

I always thought "Holy Cows" lived in India...???

I think this recipe could be the end of "regular" burgers on my grill this summer if I ever get one...
