Best burgers of the weekend

Memorial Day presents many opportunities to break out the BBQ, but these burgers I made today got rave reviews from our audience. I used 12 grain bread to make the breadcrumbs and also added some onion salt as grating an onion appeared to create mostly water. I also added a dash more Worcestershire than called for, for good measure.

Ingredients
1 pound ground chuck
1 large egg, beaten
1/4 cup soft breadcrumbs (homemade)
1 tablespoon grated onion
1/2 teaspoon Lawry's meat tenderizer seasoning
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
4 hamburger buns

Preparation
Combine first 8 ingredients, blending well. Shape into 4 patties. Grill, uncovered, over medium coals (300° to 350°) 15 minutes or until done, turning once. Serve on buns.
For broiling: Place patties on broiler pan; broil 3 inches from heat about 10 minutes or until done, turing once.
For panfrying: Heat a heavy skillet until hot. Add patties, and cook over medium heat about 8 minutes or until done, turning once.

Yield
4 servings
