Hamburgers don't have to be the greasy flabby things you find in fast-food outlets, well-made they can be excellent. It's a very convivial recipe as everything goes on the table, and everyone assembles their own burger according to personal taste.

  • This has to be my very best favorite way to prepare potato salad. However, jh, I never thought to add cervelas, or any other kind of meat besides ham. Thanks for the clue and sharing...

    Hope all is well with you and yours,
    Louise:)
