Make
- If making burgers on the grill: Preheat grill to 500F (260C) degrees. Brush grill grates with oil and then place patties over direct heat. Grill on opposite sides for ~4 minutes each with cover closed.
- If making burgers on stovetop / oven: Heat oven to 400F (204C) degrees. Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush pan with some oil and then place patties on heated oil. Sear on each side for ~2 minutes. Transfer to oven and cook for another 4 to 6 minutes, until lamb reaches 160F (71C) degrees.
