Looks can be deceiving!
Do you think this burger looks appealing. Ugh - terrible burger. Thank heavens I posted it private and not public before I tried it. The original recipe was from a very highly thought of magazine. It has red wine in it and sounded like a winner. It was literally for the birds - I fed the left overs to them this AM. I wouldn't be surprised if they leave it too.

Well, I will say ... it looks delicious. I don't know all the ingredients; but, sorry to hear it wasn't a success.
I will admit to trying recipes with GREAT reviews, magazines, cook books, food sites, etc.; however, I have been disappointed more times than pleased. So sorry - but, you sure made a great looking burger ...
I hope the birds enjoyed it, ;)

Bergy,
So sorry that your burger didn't turn out as
well as you would have hoped. But on the
other hand, the photos look really good.

It's pretty hard to have a recipe wreck I burger but I trust you.
I wonder if you made a new recipe and did some mushrooms and onion cooked in wine and put on top of the burger you'd like it better? I know how much you like mushrooms and they go so well with wine.
It still looks good though-

The wine I think was the cause of the disaster! I used a good chiatii (sp) but in combination urg no. The changes - minimal - that I made would not have made a big difference in flavour. I think I will just leave out the wine all together but a nice suggestion Sue Thanks
