Most Amish cooks would use hamburger from their own supply of freshly butchered meat. I saw these at an Amish farm once and you'll definitely get a juicer flavor with meat this fresh.

With the spring and summer picnic season approaching, I just thought I'd share a favorite, flavorful recipe for burgers that are popular in Amish homes. Â They'll use their own fresh, meat for this recipe and that can make all the difference in taste. Â So if you are looking for a tried-and-true guaranteed burger to please, this recipe is probably it. Enjoy! Â This, by the way, comes to us from an Amish cook in the Berne area of Indiana.
- • 2 lb. hamburger
- • 2 eggs, slightly beaten
- • 2 C. soft bread crumbs
- • 2 t. salt
- • ¼ C. minced onion
- • ¼ C. milk
- Barbecue Sauce
- • 2 T. brown sugar
- • 2 T. vinegar
- • 2 T. Worcestershire sauce
- • 1 C. catsup
- Lightly brown the hamburger then add chopped onion.
- Continue browning until meat is no longer pink and the onion is sauteed.
- Add remaining ingredients and cook on medium heat, stirring often until the hamburger is thoroughly cooked and the sauce is thick and bubbles.
- This should take about 20 to 30 minutes.
- Serve on your favorite rolls with your favorite cheese slice on top of the barbecued burgers
