	Award Winning Summertime Tasting Hamburger by Drick Perry A new favorite, maybe the best!It is crazy how we get stuck in a rut. I mean, eating the same thing over-and-over again. Now I am not saying to put away a good recipe when you find one, I'm just saying I like to try and create new ones from time to time. Do I try to 'out do' the previous favorite? No, nor do I try to replace it. But I…	1 vote 4913 views
