Portobello Mushroom and Guacamole Hamburgers

I love Home made hamburgers and will much rather make one than buy one.

Last Saturday I asked (*forced*) the strong man to light up a fire to grill

hamburger patties and Portobello mushrooms, they just tastes so much better

done this way and how lovely it was to enjoy the winter sun after being cooped

up inside the house most of the winter.

Tips 

I’ve baked my own brown bread rolls for this burger but certainly won’t do that 

again as the bread was too dense to enjoy the burger filling. 

For a vegetarian version ditch the patty.

For the Burger patty

500 Ground beef

1 packet of Bacon

Salt and pepper to taste

1 tsp Robertson Steak & Chop spices (any other spices of your choice will do)

1 egg yolk

In a food processor, finely chop the onion and chillie, add bacon. Mix with the rest of

ingredients. Roll into balls, press flat and shape to form patties.

Pop into the freezer for +- 15 minutes, grill.

Grill Portobello mushroom brushed with melted garlic butter.

For the guacamole
