This was a great burger with so many flavors going on, my DH said he liked it better than the burger at our fav Tom Douglas restaurant which he loves! I didn't read the recipe right and ended up putting lemon juice and cucumber in the burger as well as in the yogurt mix. I was surprised by how much I loved the yogurt topping. I used a regular bun instead of sourdough roll. Made for Culinary Quest 3 for one of the Iota Eta Pi
