Sliders

  1. BACON PREP: Place bacon on a baking sheet and into the freezer for 30 minutes.  Transfer to a food processor (affiliate) and pulse for 10-15 seconds to create small bits of raw bacon.
  2. MIX BURGERS:  Add bacon, ground lamb and dried oregano to mixing bowl (affiliate).  Mix by hand until well combined.  Form patties two inches in diameter.  Make a dimple in the center of the patty using your thumb.  Season outside with salt and pepper.
  3. COOK: Place patties in frying pan (affiliate) and cook for 4 minutes on each side.  Cook in batches if necessary and remove to a baking sheet when done.  When sliders are all cooked, place buns inside down on the pan and cook until toasted.  Meanwhile, place a small slice of feta cheese on each patty. 
  4. BROIL & SERVE: Turn oven broiler on high and place patties under heat until cheese begins to brown.  Remove and place on bun with a generous portion of tzatziki spooned on top.
