These are the burgers my mother is famous for — my parents’ visiting day barbecues are the stuff of legend in my extended family. When I asked for exact ingredients, my mother told me that it’s actually my grandmother’s recipe (we call her Ima), and of course, she never measures.
2 pounds (1 kilogram) lean ground beef
2 eggs
2 tablespoons onion soup mix
2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
2 tablespoons Manischewitz Honey
1/2 cup Italian bread crumbs
8 burger buns
lettuce
beefsteak tomato, thinly sliced
red onion, thinly sliced
avocado, thinly sliced
ketchup, barbecue sauce, and/or mayonnaise, to taste
Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
Mix all burger ingredients by hand until just combined.
Form into burgers and grill over medium-high heat for four to five minutes per side or until desired doneness.
Serve on buns with lettuce, tomato, red onion, avocado, and condiments of your choice.

can I use a grill pan indoors?
My kids loved these. This is a easy basic burger and everyone enjoyed.
I didn’t have Italian bread crumbs so I used corn flakes crumbs and added some Italian spices – rosemary, oregano, and basil. It came out delicious!
