Submitted by CoCaShe

"I tried these one night when I had defrosted some ground meat and wanted flavourful burgers. The burgers come out quite large so make sure you get the good kaiser buns!"

Awesome pork burger - used minced garlic and red onion in place of powdered, home made whole wheat bread crumbs. The pickle adds the crunch. Indoor grill 7 minutes was too long. I will shorten the grill time next time but it was still moist and very filling. You won't miss not eating beef!

These were yummy burgers. I made them just as specified and cooked them on the grill. They were so moist and juicy - thanks for sharing!
