The flavor and juiciness of these was really wonderful - 5 star. But I'm only rating the recipe 4 because I'd be really afraid to add hot liquid into cold meat. Thank you to tscheidler who suggested chilling for a few hours in the fridge. And thank you to the Stowe Show for a keeper recipe!

My Friends here are a few tips to really enjoy this recipe: #1 The meat and the liquid (the sugar, seasonings, etc) must be COLD when you bring them together. If you take the mixture immediately off of the heat and then add it to the meat you're going to have problems. After you've finished the cooking of the mixture place it in a container and stick it in the fridge for a few hours. #2 Add the liquid in small amounts. When you notice the meat is just beginning to become saturated stop adding liquid. You may only use 2/3's of the mixture and that is OK. The burgers will still be plenty sweet and flavorful. #3 When cooking turn your grill up to high and pop those patties down. After you've loaded up your grill close the lid and leave them be for 5 minutes. NO PEAKING. After 5 minutes return, flip, close lid and don't peak for another 5 minutes. When you return they're done and you're all set to eat. We've really enjoyed this recipe and I'm looking forward to many more BBQ's featuring the Stowe Show. Thanks!

this burger was nothing above average, the sweet burger can be made without thinking,without recipe on allrecipes.com overall basic burgers are the best,but not this time better luck next time

This was certainly different. It was sweet. But... let's just say that worcestershire, italian seasoning, and brown sugar do not all belong in the same dish. Sadly this was much better smothered in bbq sauce which worked out well with the worcestershire flavor. The only change I made was to use onion powder instead of fresh. This wasn't terrible, it was just an odd mix of tastes that I didn't think went together. Thanks, I had fun fixing a new recipe!

These were AWESOME. This recipe is so unique for hamburgers- SO GOOD! Scaled down the recipe to make 5 burgers and only used 1/2 the recommended amount of worcestershire and brown sugar. GREAT recipe!

This recipe is absolutely delicious... we've made it three times... two times it turned out GREAT... this last time we had too much liquid...but we were able to make things work. I think the problem was we changed the original portion size. Be aware... and ENJOY!

a little less sugar would be good

There was much too much liquid, the meat fell apart, and even after I added additional meat to compensate for the sogginess, the burgers turned out so dry, they were inedible. If you've been curious about this recipe, save your time, and your groceries!
