Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.....

                               
                                                                                       
So what I just lost 30 lbs! I try to eat healthy but I'm only human for Christ's sake and I'm allowed to crave a good cheese burger like the next person. Now! Lol! 

Again, I digress. So I knew I didn't want any fast food, or takeout burgers. I wanted to be able to creep back into the kitchen after everyone's all tucked in nice and cozy and unleash my inner fat broad on that second burger of mine that my sinister mind had earlier on in the night, tucked away neatly in the microwave, wrapped in foil, protected from the kids by my stern warning not to touch that plate or they'd lose a limb! (Nah, I didn't say it exactly like that but they read between the lines!) But back to the burger..............

Like any other day I'm always more than excited to try a new recipe. Yup, I"m constantly searching for" the best of EVERYTHING" recipe!

Low and behold I come across a 5 star recipe for a copycat Fuddruckers recipe. (You already know the recipe will follow at the end of the blog! I got you covered Boss, don't fret, lol!!)

Now let's be clear, this recipe was nothing spectacular in terms of ingredients, but what I was a little surprised by was that dark brown sugar was amongst the list of items needed. Now they had my attention!

After using exactly the amount of seasonings as the recipe called for and of course the dark brown sugar, my kitchen was smelling darn good. (And okay, okay...yes, my mouth was salivating while my tummy did the bass to Slick Rick's "A Children Story." Back to the burgers, smh.....

Clearly these burgers lived up to their ratings. They were simple, easy, quick and absolutely delicious! I believe my quest to find the perfect burger recipe has come to a triumphant end! (I'm afraid to get on the scale tomorrow, but that's another blog entirely! Lol!!) I am very pleased with the end results and anytime it's silent at the dinner table because the kids are too busy eating to talk you are on the right path and DO NOT stray! Lol, so the burgers are here to stay, but by all means...try them out for yourself and tell me I'm wrong :)
