It makes a great crispy crust on the burger. Decent meat and S & P are all you need for great flavor.<br />I was surprised to read that you get The Pioneer Woman across the pond!!!Sharon Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17462501495383780806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-72346018652122232452016-06-15T12:20:11.375+01:002016-06-15T12:20:11.375+01:00:)I love when the cheese melts..I have to make you...:)I love when the cheese melts..I have to make your pork burgers again!La Table De Nanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04358539954508050792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-75463034830947764372016-06-15T10:11:59.482+01:002016-06-15T10:11:59.482+01:00Plain mince is highly underrated Suzan!

I have come home late and made mince into burgers and am eating one now. Mum would never let me use plain mince like that.

I have used Brioche buns here and they are fabulous. But a well done burger with A1 steak sauce can also be a very tasty thing! xoMarie Raynerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00407913432222377267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7100882347408067241.post-83554070380251868652016-06-15T05:36:28.974+01:002016-06-15T05:36:28.974+01:00You bum! HOW could you do this to me!! Are you TR...You bum! HOW could you do this to me!! Are you TRYING to drive me out of my mind? Just a couple of days ago I was saying how much I was craving a GOOD steak and a great hamburger or cheeseburger. It's easier to just do without the bread or the bun when its the disgusting tasteless stuff I've found so far in gluten free bread. I NEED to sit down and start trying out gf recipes to make my own. I wonder if you have ANY concept or understanding of HOW good those burgers look to me. I close my eyes and I can just FEEL that nice soft bun in my hand and the juice that rolls out if I press a bit on the sandwich. I can feel and hear the crunch of the pickle and the lettuce and that luscious squishiness of the vine-ripened tomato with just a touch (not too much now) of a high-quality mayonnaise. I don't even know HOW long its been since I had a REAL...NORMAL...hot, juicy cheeseburger on a soft potato bread bun. There is a company near me (actually in Pennsylvania outside of Chambersburg, I might live in Maryland but I live just about 4 miles from the state line) called Martin's Rolls that has been around for decades. For those of you in the States, yes, they ARE (or were at least) a Mennonite family. (around here MANY of the Martins are Mennonite or descended from a Mennonite family). They also make a potato bread and is second only to the Hawaiian Dinner rolls. (aren't they incredible too) While they're called potato bread and rolls and yes, they do have potato flour in them they are however also made with a great deal of regular AP flour thus making them inedible for we poor, sad Celiac sufferers. I've loved these rolls ever since I was a kid. They're a great favorite of many people for things like cheeseburgers, etc. As a kid, believe it or not, a very special, just for a treat meal was homemade cheeseburger, homemade french fries and homemade milkshakes. The everyday normal meals were the steaks, roasts, chicken, pork chops, all of those sorts of things. It's crazy, but that's how it was. My mom worked fulltime so to do those items were very time consuming and probably why they were a special treat. This cheeseburger looks so much like what our special one did its almost spooky. But sadly, until I can discover a hamburger bun I like as well as I do the rolls i enjoy, I'll just continue going without and eating them bunless, usually with AI Steak Sauce. basketpamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15415021707270685050noreply@blogger.com
