Yum!! I loved this burger and so did all my Family :-) I put extra bbq sauce on the toasted buns before I served them and I think that really made the burgers. As soon as you took a bite of the burger, you could taste the lovely bbq sauce on the other ingredients. The flavours just exploded in your mouth. Thanks heaps for the recipe :-)

My husband loved this! I used extra lean ground beef & hot/spicy BBQ sauce. I made the big mistake of cooking this inside on the stovetop, so when I brushed on the sauce, it made quite a sizzle! Next time I'll use a cover or grill them inside! I served it on a wheat bun w/ a slice of pepperjack. Thanks for sharing!

I thought these were just okay. I solid burger but not exactly to our taste. I thought the onion soup added a funny, off taste to the burger.
