2 C Thinly sliced onions, in rings

1 TBL Instant minced onion

Vegetable cooking spray

1 tsp ground pepper

1/2 C chili sauce

1 garlic clove, minced

1 Lb. Ground round

1/3 C bread crumbs

4 Hamburger buns, split

4 curly lettuce leaves

Place sliced onion in a medium skillet, coated with cooking spray. Cover and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes or until onion is limp and golden. Reduce heat to low and add ¼ cup chili sauce and Carol Hall’s Pepper Jelly. Cover and cook 5 minutes, until onion is tender and thoroughly heated.

Now combine the beef, bread crumbs, remaining chili sauce, onion, pepper and garlic. Mix well. Divide into four equal portions, making ½” patties. These can be broiled or grilled – 4 minutes per side. Line the bottom half of the buns with lettuce, beef patty, ¼ cup of onion mixture, then the top of the bun.
