I can't take all the credit for these winning burgers. My husband's uncle passed down the special barbecue sauce recipe. We love it on everything...it was only natural to try it on, and in, burgers. —Rhoda Troyer, Glenford, Ohio

My family loves this burger and the sauce. I make a double recipe of the sauce and use it on grilled pork chops. Very good!

Barbecued burgers with a sweet sauce turn out so well, my entire family loves them, right down to my grandson. This recipe is definitely a keeper and going in my recipe box.

I just wanted to add (while making a batch)... the bar-b-q sauce is great on "dilly turkey melts"... another recipe on this site.

Tried this recipe, was a big hit with my family! We tripple this BBQ sauce recipe to always have it on hand and use it always for all meats, not just burgers, for barbecueing. It is the best ever!! Thanks for the wonderful recipe! Janet Rodakowski

I LOVE sweet meat!!! I put sweet sauces on any meat I can get my hands on. :) Can't wait to try your recipe...it looks AMAZING!

I hate sweet meat! It's nasty. If I want dessert, I will eat it. I agree with Sam123

THIS RECIPE IS VERY GOOD FOR MOST I SUPPOSE BUT, I AM AN OLD

BORN AND RAISED COUNTRY FROM KENTUCKY, AND THERE IS NO WAY I WANT ANYTHING SWEET IN MY HAMBURGERS. I COMPARE THIS TO THE WAY THE YANKEE FOLKS RUINED CORN BREAD BY INCLUDING SUGAR IN THE RECIPE.
