Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

In a large bowl, combine 0.5 pound of lean ground beef with 0.5 pound of lean ground lamb.

Run 2 cloves of garlic through a garlic press and add the pressed garlic to the meat.

Grate 0.5 onion using the large side of a box grater and add it to the bowl.

Toast 1 slice of bread and crumble it into the bowl.

Season the mixture with 0.5 teaspoon of dried savory, 1 teaspoon of ground allspice, 0.25 teaspoon of ground coriander, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, 0.5 teaspoon of ground black pepper, and a dash of ground cumin.

Knead the meat mixture until it holds together well, then shape it into 4 very thin patties, about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick.

Cook the patties on the preheated grill for 5 to 7 minutes per side until done.

Serve the Euro Burgers on warm pita bread with tzatziki sauce, thinly sliced onion, tomato, and lettuce.
