lamb burgers are great!! .. ..next time, try adding a little chopped mushrooms and mint and season with Zatar (middle eastern herb mixture that is great!!). ... then stuff a nice piece of feta cheese in the middle .... the feta really melts into the burger while cooking. . . serve in a pita bread with tzazki sauce!!! ...they are fantastic!!!

Max,
What cut would work for that? or would it matter that much?
I have a leg I need to thaw and that burger sounds tasty. -
i usually buy ground lamb...so i'm not sure where it comes from, but like with regular beef burger, i'm pretty sure its ground up shoulder and other scraps....
-
leg works great, the fats not so great so cut it off, and dont over cook. we eat ground lamb raw so have no problems with a rare to med rare burger, if you need it more done add onions and cheeses like max suggested. i like to make lamb pies with the ground lamb, google sfeeha, pizza dough works good for them. the sfeeha recipes would be a good approach to lamb burgers as wellfukahwee maineyou can lead a fish to water but you can not make him drink it

I like zatar a lot and I'll bet it would be great in lamb burgers.
Thanks for the suggestion. -
Shane,
I did these at Eggtoberfest '08 and they were really good.

1/4 tsp Ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp Ground cloves
1/4 tsp Ground nutmeg
1 tsp Coarse ground black pepper
1/2 tsp cayenne
Procedure
In a food processor, chop onion extremely fine. Add parsley and mint and until you have

Toast coriander and cumin in CI pan til fragrant
Put the meat in a large mixing bowl, add all ingredients and spices to meat, combine and
mix thoroughly with your hands.

Shape egg-sized balls of kafta into logs and work evenly onto skewers.

Lamb was commonly mixed with beef when I was stationed in southern Spain, it had a little bit of a sweet flavor to it that made those burgers EXTRA delicious!
Often times those burgers were topped with thinly sliced ham, and a fried egg... YUMMMMM -
