While searching for a recipe that would help me understand how to use some ground lamb I bought, I discovered a fun little trick to aid in making your own hamburger patties!

I mix up a variety of ingredients, I think this batch included ground beef, onion, orange bell pepper, barbecue sauce, a bit of cumin, salt, pepper, and I think a bit of chopped garlic.

Take a drinking glass and turn it upside down on a piece of foil cut in half. Crinkle the foil up around the base of the glass. Take the glass away and you have a nice little spot to put your meat in. Take a handful of meat and press it into your mold.

Put your molds in the oven (I think I cook them at like 350 or something) and take them out when they look done to your preference.

This (amazing) burger has: homemade focaccia, lettuce, tomato, avocado, sharp cheddar, mayonnaise, barbecue sauce, and my homemade burger patty. So good.

The meat breaks apart almost as soon as you put it on the bun and start eating it, but I like it that way!
