In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, finely diced shallot, and diced jalapeños (including the seeds for extra spice).

Add the crumbled feta to the bowl. Season generously with salt, pepper, and sumac to taste.

Wearing gloves, gently mix all the ingredients until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the burgers tough.

Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and form them into patties. Press a small indent in the center of each patty; this helps prevent the burgers from bulging in the middle during cooking.

Heat a grill or a large skillet over medium heat. Add a bit of butter to the cooking surface.

Once the butter is melted and shimmering, place the patties on the grill or in the skillet. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired doneness.

Remove the cooked patties from the heat and let them rest for a few minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more flavorful burger.

To assemble the burgers, spread a generous amount of the prepared yogurt sauce (with shallots and jalapeños mixed in) on the toasted buns.

Place a cooked beef patty on the bottom half of each bun, then top with a few slices of fresh tomato.

Serve immediately and enjoy your spicy beef feta burgers!
