Grilled Lamb And Feta Sliders

Dodging random snowy (and now non-stop rainy!) days we've managed to get in a few more great grilling sessions lately. If you missed it, don't forget to check out our awesome grilled chicken sausage sandwiches right here.

One of our new favorites was grilled lamb sliders topped with feta cheese and served with marinated potatoes. To start this fantastic dinner, we cut red potatoes into wedges and coated with some homemade marinade - use your imagination and pick flavors you like, or skip the work and get a store bought packet.



Next we construct the burgers, which will be a mix of 2/3 of a pound ground lamb and 1/3 of a pound ground pork. We saved the extra meat and make a reverse mixture (2/3 pork and 1/3 lamb) for pineapple burgers later in the week (check out how we made those during last year's grilling season over here).

While mixing together the meat we added in cumin, dill, garlic and onion powder, pepper, and oregano. This time around we made the burgers slider size instead of full bun size for a fun change. You'll also see some slices of onion below that are going to be cooked on the grill along with the burgers.


Here's everything fresh off the grill and ready for constructing, including slider sized buns that have been lightly grilled for some extra texture and flavor.


To put these together, we top our buns with red pepper flavored feta cheese, grilled onions, and some hot mustard.


Here are my two sliders and a pile of delicious potatoes ready to be devoured:


If you wanted to go more crazy with it, use hummus instead of mustard or mayo and top with cucumber slices instead of tomato.
