If you rate this lower than 5 you have done something wrong. I read through all the reviews taking note how some indicated the burger was "wet". I don't know why others had that issue but I followed the recipe exactly as written and both weighed & measured the ingredients and my burger was delicious!
These are good tasty burgers. My only complaint is the mixture was too juicy to hold together well. I added oatmeal before forming the patties but they still fell apart on the grill. Next time I will try breadcrumbs and an egg and we will use our Forman grill.
Not a fan of this and we're big Tequila fans too! Agree with other review needed more ground beef or too moist. The burger just had too much seasonings and I followed to a "t". Won't make again.
Recipe as is is WAY too salty. I took the remaining burgers and re-mixed with another pound of meat and everyone raved.
I read the reviews and could pretty much tell these were going to be too "wet" but I went ahead and followed the recipe to the letter anyway except that I used venison instead of beef because that is what we have. After mixing everything together and even sticking them in the fridge for an hour I could see that they were still going to be too wet. Easy fix though because I just added a handful of breadcrumbs and that firmed them up real nice. I topped mine with salsa instead of the typical ketchup and I used A-1 bold and spicy for the steak sauce and we really liked them. Thanks!
YUM! I took a shot of tequila right before dinner just for fun and these were soooo good! I added some coconut to these and I thought it complimented the lime really well.
The flavor is fantastic! The burgers kept falling apart on the grill though. I added some oatmeal and an egg to help hold the burgers together.
I tried it anyway and they were fantastic. I had about 2.25 lbs of meat and maybe that made the difference. Everyone loved them. I used 1T of chipotle/ancho southwest chile spice mix 1T of Montreal Chicken mix and a little Lawry's instead of the Montreal steak mix. Quite a nice little kick. I'd do it again!
I am going to admit that the burger was wet and started to break when I tried to flip it. So I was losing hope. I just flipped it less. And it broke a little but I was super careful when I flipped. So it’s not going so good. Lol! I put it on a bun and topped it with sautéed onions and jalapeños, and took a bite and it was absolutely amazing. The flavor exploded in my mouth and it was the best burger I have ever ate!!!!! My family absolutely loved it! We couldn’t stop raving about it! Because the flavor was just that amazing. We are definitely going to make these again next week! Maybe I’ll follow some of the other reviews that used egg or something to hold the burger together. But this burger is a winner in my book because the taste is the most flavorful burger I’ve ever had!!!!! Thank you so much for posting this recipe!!!!
