"I found this on the Betty Crocker site. It's a variation on the Grilled Backyard Beer Burger that uses burgundy wine in place of beer. It adds a moist and savory flavor to your usual pub grub! I would love to saute some mushrooms and melt some Swiss cheese over them at some point. Allow burger mixture to sit for a half hour before you throw them on the grill. It allows the flavors to blend and lends a more robust taste to the burgers. (Prep time includes refrigeration time)."

These burgers are full of flavor. We liked them so much. I didn't use salt. I made half the recipe but with 1 lb of ground beef and got 4 burgers. Thanks PSU Lioness :) Made for New Kids on the Block tag game

The most defining trait in my life is that I am a mother to two wonderful boys (Tyler, 20 and Zayden, 9). I live in the little college town of Selinsgrove, Pennsylvania. It is the most wonderful place to live as it's nestled in the Appalachian Mountains and along the beautiful Susquehanna River. Seeing that we live in Central Pennsylvania, our family is also a bunch of HARDCORE Penn State Nittany Lion fans! We are...PENN STATE! I was lucky enough to be given tickets to see Joe Paterno win his 400th game as the head coach of the football team. I cried like I did when my children were born. The other love of my life is cooking. I didn't really start trying to cook until I was 20, but believe me I have made up for lost time! I absolutely adore baking and I do it whenever I can. I love making Christmas cookies and I have begun hosting our extended families at our home for Thanksgiving and Easter dinners. So far so good. I love food.com because it allows me to expand my culinary skills and my recipe box with ideas from other people like me. There is something for everyone and I have been a loyal member since 2005. I hope you enjoy my recipes and if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
