Deviled Hamburgers
"Might refer to this as a retro recipe. We had these on a regular basis growing up. Since I can't find anyone here in Virgina who knows what they are, it may be a Midwest thing. Mom said that you always served them at parties in the 50's & 60's because the boys liked them so much. They became legendary in my group of friends when Mom made them one evening for dinner. The guys kept asking where the tops to their burgers were to get under Mom's skin. It worked (she threatened to never cook for them again) and they still laugh about it today. Boys are rotten. We love them anyway. They did like the burgers! Note: You must use a lean ground beef or there is a tendency to end up with a soggy, greasy bun. Not good."

These were very tasty! DH and I both really liked them. Followed recipe exactly and didn't add a thing and they were perfect! I did have to cook just a couple of extra minutes, but that is probably just my oven. Will make these again! -
I'm not giving this one stars, because it was horribly bland. After putting quite enough mixture on my 2 buns, I had enough left over for another half. I'm guessing that I had too much meat in the mixture, and that made the flavorings go further. I wasn't particularly fond of the texture of the thing, but I do want to give the burger another chance, using the correct amount of meat, and see if the flavor is more appealing. If so, it will be a nice change from a regular burger. -
Retro or not, I've never heard of this technique and I thought it worked great! (I couldn't resist using the other 4 buns from the package to cover the burgers after they were cooked, sorry, lol) The flavors were awesome, and the house smelled excellent when they were done. (BTW, 8 minutes was perfect) Being Halloween, I've had several of the parents of trick-or-treaters comment that something great was cooking, lol.. I will definately make these again - very flavorful, and practically no cleanup! Thanks for the post, witch! -
This was a wonderful recipe! I liked the flavor of the "mixed in stuff" with the burgers. I also added some garlic and a minced jalapeno pepper. Thanks so much for posting! This is a definite keeper recipe!

I live in Blacksburg, Virginia with my husband and 3 young children, and one fat cat. I'm a stay at home Mom of an 8 year old girl, 5 year old boy, and 2 year old girl. They are all stinky rotten but I am terribly attached to them. Plus, they do put up with me. I guess I'll keep them.
Dinner preparation can be challenging with my toddler hanging on my leg but I still try to make a really nice meal. I enjoy cooking so much and though I could turn to more convenience foods to help me out, I just don't like to. My food is a source of pride for me. Some of my best memories are of my Mom in the kitchen. So, let the laundry pile up and the dust accumulate because I am spending my time in the kitchen.
I live in a close knit community and have an excellent support network of other Moms. There are a lot of good cooks in the bunch so there is a lot of recipe swapping. My MOPS group just sent a cookbook to the printer to make it back by the holidays. I helped with the editing.
Blacksburg may be small but the presence of Virginia Tech ensures that we have a constant ebb and flow of folks from all over the place. Small town meets global world. I'm originally from Indiana where I was raised to love basketball but have transitioned over to Hokie football. Sometimes our town IS that football team. Certainly, I love the tailgating and I feel at home among the ever present sea of orange and maroon. I love this place.
If I am eating out in Blacksburg, I'm most likely to be seen at Gillies's for breakfast, Cabo Fish Taco for lunch, and the Cellar for dinner.
RecipeZaar is the cooking site I visit most. I can almost always find what I am looking for here. The reviews and ratings are so helpful. The folks here seldom let me down. I have accumulated quite a recipe collection from you all. Thank you!
I find myself in the natural foods section of the grocery more and more these days. I have been gradually weaning the family off of processed foods. I can't fathom becoming a vegetarian anytime soon so we buy organic beef from a local farmer. It's great stuff and we get it at a good price.
I've been cooking with whole grains and fresh produce more often lately. I am trying my hand at making my own mayo and ketchup. I went in with a friend to purchase a grain mill to mill our own grains into flour. I look forward to gaining more experience in bread making. Want to try grain soaking.
My favorite cookbooks are my old Fanny Farmer and Good Housekeeping, a 1990 edition of the NY Times cookbook, and an Amish cookbook by Marcia Adams.
I still love my sweets. I tell myself that if I make it from scratch and I use more organic and raw ingredients, that it's OK. Not exactly healthy but an improvement. I do find that many of the desserts I used to like are just too sweet for me anymore. This has put me on a quest to update or replace some of the recipes I've had for a long time.
Other interests of mine include children's literature, cardmaking, writing, afternoon naps. the art of Charles Harper & Audrey Kawasaki, craftsman houses, and tournament-style Scrabble.
Autumn is my favorite season. Few things please me more than the fall's crisp air, leaves dancing around in a cascade of colors, and my glorious friends the pumpkins. The Blue Ridge Mountains are perfect. Plenty of trails locally and in the mountains to do lots of nature walks.
