One of Life's simple pleasures |
Here's what she has to say about burgers:
-->
“Hamburgers are a very popular all-American food, perhaps
because they are pleasing both to the taste and to the budget. When cooked
properly, grilled hamburgers particularly appeal to our palates and can be a
delicious part of any meal. …”
“These hamburgers are sizzling in a large oval iron pan
supported by a homemade grill made of scrap iron rods. (We have found that
neither the elaborateness nor simplicity of a grill affects the delicious
flavor of hamburgers.) You’ll find recipes for Barbecue Sauces in the [Grillin’
… section].”—The Creative Cooking Course (1982)
Recipe below. (We had these with Coleslaw with Cooked Dressing.)
