5-in-1 All Purpose

Grill Like A Pro.

Combine first 9 ingredients. Mix well and rest 2-3 hours.

On waxed paper, form into two large patties, about 2 inch wider that the flat bread. Grill patties over hot coals 2-3 minutes per side. Top with feta when flipped.

Allow patties to rest 5 minutes. While meat is resting, lightly grill the top of each flat bread round until just starting to color.

Spread 1/3 of sour cream Tzatziki sauce on each “bottom” flat bread, top each with a patty, 1/2 onions and tomatoes. Drizzle with a bit more Tzatziki over the veggies, and top each with the second flat bread round.

Cut each “burger” into 4 even wedges and serve with fries.
