Savory, herby, and deeply satisfying, these little beef patties are the kind of snack that actually keeps you full. The combination of fresh rosemary, oregano, and a bright hit of lemon juice gives each patty a bold, almost Mediterranean flavor that punches well above its weight. One of the trickiest parts of eating this way is finding convenient, protein-rich snacks that don't rely on onion or garlic powder — two of the most common hidden triggers lurking in store-bought patties and seasoning blends. Here, garlic-infused olive oil does all the heavy lifting, delivering that savory depth without the problematic compounds that cause issues. A touch of turmeric adds warmth and a gorgeous golden color to the crust, while the high-heat sear locks in the juices for a patty that's crispy on the outside and tender within. Make a double batch and keep them in the fridge — they reheat beautifully and work just as well tucked into a lettuce wrap as they do eaten straight off the plate.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, rosemary, garlic-infused olive oil, salt, black pepper, oregano, turmeric, and lemon juice. Mix with your hands until the seasonings are evenly distributed, about 30 seconds — stop as soon as the mixture is uniform to avoid overworking.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and press each into a flat round patty about 1/2 inch thick.
