These look goooood. They start out like my Swedish meatballs with the bread and milk. Apples? I'll give it a whirl. Oh Crap! These look goooood.

But a thought - what about keeping the caramelized onions and apples out of the burger, and instead deglazing/reducing some balsamic vinegar in there, and then using that as a topping for the burger? Add some arugula and toasted almonds, and this could be a killer burger that way as well!

Try it out and let us know...though I think I'd - selfishly - want the onions and apples on top and in the burger. Matt, that makes my stomach growl and grr!

I reached for the wrong container. You weren't supposed to tell anyone about that. Seriously, I've made with milk and they are very good. Maybe a smidge better with whole milk. But it's just three tablespoons. That was an accident. I reached for the wrong container. You weren’t supposed to tell anyone about that.

I posted the results on my blog, and hope you all come by and take a look! http://finarelli.com/blog/2007/06/29/one-more-experiment-before-the-wife-returns/ Even though you have the pingback listed here, I thought I would come and personally tell you that I tried my variation on these burgers.
