I have noticed a lot of you folks like to eat when out camping so I have decided to share, with you, something I make here at the house for special occasions and even sometimes out camping when everyone looks really hungry, I mean really hungry. 
I am from Texas (by birth) and we like to eat.
SPARKEY'S TEXAS BURGERS
I call them Texas Burgers because nothing small comes from Texas.
Useing hamburger to make one burger follow this recipe, for more then just add to it for each burger.
Make two patties about 5 inches across and 3/8 Th. of an inch thick. When they are made ...........
Add to one of the patties a 1/4 in thick slice of a Beefsteak Tomato, the same thickness of a sweet onion, and follow up with the same thickness of some good sharp cheddar cheese. A little salt & Pepper does not hurt.
Now take the spare patty and flop it on the top of all of this and gently pick the whole burger up and seal the edges, all the way around. Make sure it is sealed all the way around or you will loose a lot of juice when it is cooked. :cry:
At home do them in a broiler or BBQ Grill and out camping on a wire grate over some oak coals or a low flame. Have a hamburger bun to put it on and it will make the bun disappear or look really small.
Grab it and open wide to bite it. CAUTION it will be full of juice and make sure you have an ole shirt on or one you don't care about because there will be spillage, juice , that is what makes them really good.
The meat will be cooked, the cheese melted, the onion is nice and warm just like the tomato slice.
I am sure you will find a way to modifie it to your taste.
My oldest daughter wanted two of them for her birthday, several years ago, so I did two for her and one for everyone else. She just loves them and she could not finish the 1st one , I made them a little bigger then normal. :lol: :lol:
