Instructions
In a large bowl, add in the ground beef, red onion, and feta. Season with 1 tbsp kosher salt plus the black pepper. Mix to evenly combine, then divide the meat into 4-6 sections and roll into balls. Smash the balls of meat down on the pitas, flattening the meat as thin as you can. Heat a grill or large cast iron skillet. Drizzle both sides of the pita with olive oil and place them meat side down onto the heat. Cook for about 7 minutes, until meat is fully browned. Flip and cook for about 5 minutes on the other side until meat is cooked through. Make the tzatziki sauce. Using the large grates of a box grater, grate 1/2 of the peeled cucumber, reserving the other half. Use a dish towel to squeeze out all the liquid from the grated cucumber. In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, dill, garlic, lemon juice, and 1 tsp kosher salt. Serve the smash burgers with additional feta and the tzatziki sauce. Dice the other half of the cucumber and serve cucumber pieces on the burgers, plus the cherry tomatoes and additional dill for garnish. Enjoy!View original recipe
