A little twist on what my mom used to make when we were kids. They're bigger and juicier and really yummy.
Paul Bunyan Burgers
1 lb ground beef
1 egg
1 Tbl Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp garlic salt
Dash of pepper
Ketchup
1-2 Tbls diced pickles
1-2 Tbls diced onion
Cubed or sliced cheese
Mix first 6 ingredients well. Divide into desired portions. (I divided in half.) Pat each portion out on wax paper into a big circle- about 6 - 8 inch across. Spread with abt a tablespoon of ketchup.
On half of circle sprinkle pickles, onion, and cheese. Lifting wax paper, fold the uncovered half on top of filled half. Press edges together- make sure they are still pretty thick.
Grill over low heat or broil for 5-10 minutes to desired doneness. Serve bunless with ketchup.
Makes 2- 1/2 lb burgers.

Sloppy Joes
Made these for FHE last night-- super easy and yummy!
Sloppy Joes
Recipe adopted from Rachael Ray
Serves: 4 super sloppy sandwiches
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon oil
1 pound ground beef
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons steak seasoning blend, such as McCormick brand Montreal Seasoning (I actually had some of this in my cupboard.)
1/2 large onion, diced
1/2 med red bell pepper, chopped
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 to 2 tablespoons mustard
2 cups tomato sauce
2 tablespoons tomato paste
4 crusty rolls, split, toasted, and lightly buttered
Directions:
Heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add oil and meat to the pan. Spread the meat around the pan and begin to break it up. Combine brown sugar and steak seasoning. Add sugar and spice mixture to the skillet and combine. When the meat has browned, add onion and red peppers to the skillet. Reduce heat to medium and cook onions, peppers, mustard and Worcestershire sauce with meat for 5 minutes. Add tomato sauce and paste to pan. Stir to combine. Reduce heat to simmer and cook Sloppy Joe mixture 15 minutes.
Using a large spoon or ice cream scoop, pile sloppy meat onto toasted, buttered bun bottoms and cover with bun tops. Have plenty of napkins on hand!
