Shape into six patties. , Grill, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 7-8 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 160° and juices run clear., Top each burger with a cheese slice; heat just until cheese begins to melt.

Shape into two oval patties., In a large skillet, cook burgers over medium heat for 5-6 minutes on each side or until meat is no longer pink. Meanwhile, prepare Texas toast according to package directions., Drain burgers; set aside and keep warm. Add the tomato sauce, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce and steak sauce to the skillet. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until slightly thickened. Return burgers to skillet; turn to coat. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Serve burgers on toast.

Steps:

• Following package instructions cook beef and seasonings, but use only HALF of recommended water. Cook until no longer "drippy".
• Spread sour cream among the four buns.
• Place lettuce on bottom of each bun. Top with taco meat.
• Top meat with onion, cheese, tomato, salsa.
• Top with bun top.
• I double the meat portion of this recipe and freeze half. Then just microwave for a second meal later on.

Steps:

• Mix the ground meat and taco seasoning with your hands.
• Make 4 patties.
• Spray grill with nonstick cooking spray before igniting.
• Heat to medium, then put burgers on.
• Cook about 5 minutes per side, or until done.
• Place on chile and 1 slice of cheese on each burger, and cover until cheese is melted.
• Serve on buns with sour cream, salsa, lettuce and tomato, or preferred garnishes.
• You can make these on the stove as well, just cook them like you would a regular hamburger.
• Make sure to use some cooking spray though!

Steps:

• Mix raw ground beef with all ingredients. You can add anything else, like green peppers or leave out anything except for the mayonnaise.
• Add enough mayonnaise so it becomes the consistency of ham salad (spreadable). Spread burger mixture on bread (Texas Toast bread or regular bread) very thinly all the way to the edges (it shrinks up as it cooks). Put all on a cookie sheet and broil until meat is done and the bread edges are toasted. My kids laugh because the smoke alarm always goes off when I broil, and they yell, "Dinner's done!".
• You should have about 8 sandwiches per pound of burger.
• Serve open-faced -- either "naked" like I like them or any condiments you choose. Really a different taste instead of just boring burgers.

Steps:

• Mix above ingredients, shape into patties and barbeque.
• Serve on hamburger buns with your favourite taco toppings.
• We had them with chile con queso, sour cream, lettuce, tomatoes and pickled jalapeno rings.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, working gently, mix ground beef with all burger ingredients except buns.
• Divide the mixture into 4 quarters and lightly form into patties about 1" thick.
• Place patties on an oiled outdoor grill (or you can cook in a skillet) and cook, turning once, about 10-15 minutes or until cooked to desired doneness. You can add the cheese slices onto the burgers a few minutes before they are done to melt if desired.
• Meanwhile, open buns and toast on grill until lightly browned. Place cooked burgers on buns and top with desired toppings.
