Tip

Keep Onion Handy

I keep a peeled onion in a glass jar in my refrigerator. It’s handy when I need a small amount of chopped onion for a recipe or my husband wants a slice of onion on his hamburger. It stays fresh in the jar, eliminating waste. —Dorothy G., Tewksbury, Massachusetts

Full-Bodied Red Wine

Enjoy this recipe with a full-bodied red wine such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot or Syrah.

I didn't put the cheese in the center, but still was the best burger I have had and I don't particularly care for hamburgers.

These very quickly became our burger of the summer. They are absolutely the best burgers we have ever had!

Just finished tossin' a couple of these bad boys- delicious! They didn't stay "sealed," so when I flipped 'em they started to ooze a bit (think I spooned the cheese too close to the edges) Oh well, grill needs cleaning anyway- it was worth it.

I think next time I will just spread the cream cheese & mustard on the buns, and top the herb-flavored burgers with sliced cheddar. Same flavors without the mess or fuss of stuffed burgers. And definitely going to add a little garlic

These burgers are excellent! So many tangy flavors. The Dijon mustard adds a somewhat mysterious taste--it's there and it's good, but I don't think I'd necessarily know what it was if I hadn't put the burgers together. The stuffing melted perfectly and the meat was very flavorful and juicy. I was out of sage, so I used 1/2 t. of thyme instead. This is definitely a part of my summer grilling repertoire from now on. Thanks for this great recipe!!

I didn't actually get to eat one of these since they disappeared instantly off the plate, but I got compliments on how delicious they were. Will definitely make again and hopefully I'll get to try one too!
