Juicy Burgers



I posted a great story to go with this recipe in my original post for Juicy Burgers.  It tells where this recipe came from and how long I've been making it.

My husband and kids DON'T like Manwich.  (However, I do.. and I actually found a great replica for Manwich which I posted here.)

Juicy Burgers are different than Manwich.  Of course there are similarities.  Both are made with ground beef, sauce, and buns.  But, Juicy Burger are sweeter.  They are made with a little brown sugar.  I love both of these meals!  It's a great way to stretch a little bit of ground beef and leftovers are WONDERFUL!

I made mine last night with some mac & cheese.  My husband prefers something like Oven Baked Cheesy Fries.  I love it all!

I am reposting this recipe .. because I took a picture... and because it bears repeating!  This is a delcious meal!

Here's how I make Homemade Juicy Burgers AT HOME MY WAY:

Juicy Burgers
  • 1 1/2 pound ground beef
  • 1 (8oz) can tomato sauce (not spaghetti sauce)
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar (I don't pack mine)
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon prepared mustard
  • 1/4 cup water
  • Salt/Pepper as you like

Brown the ground beef in a skillet. Drain. Add remaining ingredients and stir, simmer about 15-20 minutes until thick and bubbly. Serve on buns, sandwich bread, or whatever you like. Toast the buns for an extra treat.
 
*I scoop leftovers on flour tortillas, individually wrap, and place in the freezer in a gallon ziploc bag for terrific lunches on the go.

Best Dill Pickles EVER! (Just like Claussen) (Easy - no canning!)

Do you want to make the best, easiest homemade dill pickles in the world?   I found a recipe for dill pickles that tastes JUST LIKE Claussen refrigerator pickles.  Those are the best anyway, right?  That crunch, the dill and the garlic... and oh yea , the crunch!  This recipe is super easy because you  don't have to process these pickles which means there is no canning needed.   You just fill a gallon jar (we use an old pickle jar) with fresh cucumbers and dill heads, and then pour over the cooled liquids/seasonings.   Let it sit on the counter for three days, and then refrigerate.  After that, the pickle eating begins. They are supposed to keep for one year like that in the fridge, without canning.  (We let them sit for the 3 days, then refrigerated them overnight before opening the jar for the much anticipated first taste. Did they taste like Claussen?  YOU BET YOUR PRETTY PICKLE THEY DID!  We were all SO ex...

Buttermilk Biscuits - Just like Cracker Barrel!

RECIPES AT THE TOP - CHIT CHAT AT THE BOTTOM! Here's how we make Buttermilk Biscuits AT HOME MY WAY: Buttermilk Biscuits (just like Cracker Barrel) (Makes about 8 biscuits.) PRINTABLE RECIPE HERE Ingredients: 2 cups SELF RISING flour  (self rising flour gives the perfect taste to homemade biscuits) 1/3 cup shortening  (cold real butter also works here) 1 1/4 cup buttermilk*  *NOTE:  (If using regular milk combined with lemon juice vinegar referenced below, you only need 1 cup of milk because thinner regular milk uses less by volume than the thick real buttermilk.) Directions: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. (Make sure your flour is "fluffed" not straight from the bag;  Dump it in a larger container and stir using up and down motion to fluff it up a little bit-THEN measure out 2 cups).  Measure 2 cups SELF RISING flour into a mixing bowl.  Add shortening and cut it until small and crumbly. A fork works fine for this purpose ...
