Ridiculous! It does not take 2 1/2 hours to make this burger or any burger even if smoking. 5 minutes to S&P the ground protein of choice..let sit and rest while taking 10-13 mins wiping dirt off mushrooms, and then slicing onion and mushrooms what ever width desired ( just make sure they’re all the same..easy peasy! I also add 1 1/2 Tbsp of Mayonnaise, and 2 dashes of Worcheshire to the meat when mixing. ♡
this is my first bite of food when i go to Atlanta every year for ProgPower USA!!! its the tastiest thing EVER
