Papaw Carey's Juicy Hamburgers
I have memories from when I was child watching my dad mix various ingredients into ground steak to make hamburgers. They always added that extra special flavor that made them so much better than just plain hamburgers. Over the years, I've altered the recipe slightly to our taste, but they're based on Dad's original recipe.
