Hamburger Pattie Recipe

We are pleased to bring you this hamburger pattie recipe. These hamburgers can be fried or grilled. Either way the hamburgers will be extraordinary.

Each pattie is filled with a butter/seasoning mixture. This special touch flavors the meat and results in a moist hamburger pattie. So much better than the dry, boring hamburgers served in so many restaurants! Serve with lettuce, ripe tomatoes, pickles, cheese, avocado or whatever your favorite fixings are. Makes 6 juicy hamburgers.

Wine Suggestion: Drink the same wine that you use in preparing these hamburger patties. A wonderful selection would be a nice Australian shiraz. You can find lots of Shiraz choices at reasonable prices.

4 tablespoons butter, softened
