Made on the George Foreman. Very moist and an interesting change-up for a summer dinner. Don't think there's enough burger for a whole kaiser roll, so recommend you try with just the bottom of the roll (open-top). Served with Barbecue-Flavored Onion Rings.07/11/08

It was an ok burger. Doubt that I'll make it again. The flavor of the olives was too subtle and the lemon zest was too strong. Might've been better topped with feta.05/02/08
