Good burger. We made ours without buns for a quick dinner before work. Made for 2011 Favorites game.

These were good. I used a pound of meat, 1/8 cup of bbq sauce, and 1/4 teaspoon of everything else. These were moist and we enjoyed them.

Very good burgers. We made them on Sunday with 1 lb of lean ground beef and 1/8 cup barbecue sauce. We made them again yesterday. This is one of the best burgers we made. And so simple. Thanks Judythai :) Made for I Recommend tag game

Great burgers! I scaled the recipe to 3 burgers, making as directed. The bbq sauce kept even the lean ground beef moist, making for some tasty, juicy hamburgers. Grilled over charcoal and really enjoyed - thanks for sharing the recipe!

Excellent! I cut this down to two 1/4 lb burgers. For BBQ sauce, I used homemade (#159145) though my conversion may have been a little off as I think there was just a bit too much sauce, making the mixture a little too soft - they wanted to fall apart a bit when I flipped them. Otherwise, this was excellent! I thought they might need more sauce on top after cooking but they were plenty flavorful without any extra. I used sliced cheddar as it was what I had on hand. Served with nothing more than pickles on top (I can't have a burger with out pickles!) Thanks so much for sharing!
