How to Make the Best Feta Stuffed Lamb Burgers
These feta stuffed lamb burgers are a gourmet take on the classic burger, elevating simple ground lamb with creamy, tangy feta cheese tucked inside each patty. The combination of Mediterranean flavors—from the rich lamb to the sharp feta and bright jalapeño—creates a burger that’s sophisticated enough for entertaining yet simple enough for a weeknight dinner.
The crispy-on-the-outside, juicy-on-the-inside patties are perfectly complemented by the refreshing brussels sprout and jalapeño slaw, which adds both crunch and a subtle vinegary tang. The creamy tzatziki sauce ties everything together beautifully, introducing cooling cucumber notes that balance the heat from the jalapeño and the richness of the lamb and cheese.
What makes this recipe special is how easy it is to stuff a burger—simply divide your meat into thin patties, add the feta, and seal it up. No special equipment needed. These burgers are perfect for a summer barbecue, a date night dinner at home, or anytime you want to impress your guests with something truly delicious and a little bit different.
