I read the previous reviews and decided to add more oats to the mix to ensure they wouldn't fall apart on the grill...to no avail! It ended up being a big mess, probably won't make these again.

This does not work as FANCY HAMBURGERS. Making the recipe exactly as written made a ground meat concoction that was too runny and could not make patties. Instead, I placed it in a loaf pan and made a sweet meatloaf, cooking it for an hour at 350 degrees. My husband and I would give FANCY MEATLOAF five stars.

This was a disaster and a total waste of good hamburger. The patties were runny, no way to form them into patties. Do not try this recipe.

I would have never tried this if I had only read the other reviews! That will teach me. It made a mess of the grill and we broiled it and it was still more like sloppyjoes. It was too sweet to taste the other ingredients.

Not too fancy that is for sure! It was a mess. Fell apart, burned, way to sweet. Sounded good on paper but was really a disaster!

I'd have a hard time believing that ANYONE could make hamburgers with the above recipe. I followed it to the TEE and just like everyone else it fell apart and burnt. There was a lot more hamburger to play with so I tried adjusting it to make it work. I added more oats, unfortunately, I only bought enough burger for the recipe, so tripling the amount of ground beef wasn't an option for me, even though it worked for another "tester".

I'm glad I only made a small batch of this for the kids. It was a sloppy MESS! They didn't even like it. I couldn't stand the smell of them cooking.

The only thing I did different to this recipe was...I TRIPLED the beef! And they were good, plus they held up very well in the frying pan. Yum, tasty!
