Long Boy Burgers

As you may or may not know....I'm related to a bunch of carnivores so as always, I'm forever on the hunt for ways to satisfy them. And here's one way I found that makes them pretty happy. Instead of a boring hamburger, switch up the name, add a few fun ingredients and you've got yourself a Long Boy Burger! These are SO easy to make....so tasty and like I said...make meat-eaters happy-happy!
