You know, I don't think I've ever had a lamb burger. We eat it all the time in it's non-ground state...
Yours look really nice, Tony. I mix the chopped onion in w/ the meat too.

OK Folks it looks like the Stuffed Burger Challenge is winding down. I wanted to place my humble entry for your consideration. In the spirit of full disclosure, I actually cooked my entry the same day I issued the challenge (Feb 16). My kids had given me a stuffed burger press for Christmas and I hadn't had a chance to use it so I placed it in service and while I was cooking I decided this would be a great topic for a challenge. I decided to make Stuffed Burgers Two Ways. I made a Deconstructed ABT Burger (imagine my surprise when Bill slammed an ABT Burger right back at me in the first round of the challenge) and a Bacon Blues (BB) Burger. For the first one I used some cold smoked jalapeno jack, jalapenos, and home made bacon. For the second I used sauteed onion, blue cheese, and home made bacon. Both burgers used a mixture of grass fed lean beef and home made Italian Sausage (2:1 ratio). Pics appear below:

Well this was one of the best meals I have put on the table in a long while. The family loved both of the burgers and I liked the press a lot. I found it was hard not to overstuff them but I suspect that this is a matter of experience. In retrospect I think it would be better for the initial challenger to post his/her interpretation when he/she issues the challenge. Thanks for indulging me...
Regards,
John
