We're ready.

To wear flip flops? You betcha.

To dine al fresco every night? Obvi.

To grill every single meal? A must.

We still can’t believe Memorial Day is in like five minutes. Can you? Can you? We're still putting the final touches on our Memorial Day feast, but you can bet, we will be making this American Lamb & Frites Burger.

You guys know that our love for a juicy burger runs deep. Come to think of it we have a burger once a week. We're not picky when we're eating out and ordering said burgers, but when we're at home we always lean towards lamb. American lamb is juicy and nutrient-rich too. A great protein choice when you want adventurous flavor or are looking to change things up.

For this burger, we kept the mixture simple. Salt, pepper, a few dashes of steak sauce, and Tabasco are all you need. Form into lamb patties and toss them on the grill. While you cook the burgers you can make the frites. You can certainly make some kitchen-made fries, but if you are in a pinch just toss some ready-to-go into the oven.

Once everything is done cooking you are ready to assemble. Place the American lamb burger on a bun and top with frites. Seriously, these burgers are off the charts and the reliable way to celebrate the official start of summer!
