Topless Burger

Created by Abilene a reader of our newsletter in Ontario. "I have been waiting for this food item to come up on your website so I could show everyone my recipe that I like to make. My Aunt and Uncle do so much BBQ things that I have come up with my own recipes. My topless burger is a great idea for kids playing outside and no time for putting toppings on your hamburger. You do it all before you cook them. Here is my recipe I made up for kids in the summer time BBQ season.  

You will need the following ingredients:

• 2 lbs medium or regular ground beef
• 1 small bag of ketchup chips
• 1 tsp of all dressed popcorn seasoning mix
• ½ tsp of cheddar popcorn seasoning mix
• 1 egg broken up a bit
• 1 tbsp of cold water onion is optional depending if you like them or not
• 1 bag of hamburg buns

Mix together with your hands all the above ingredients. Then roll them into 8 balls. After rolling flatten them down in your hands and round out the corners or make them square which ever you would like to eat. Put them on wax paper and freeze or cook them right away on the BBQ ……yum yum yum… Hope you enjoy them like I do."
