LEMON BBQ BURGERS 
1 1/2 lb. ground beef chuck
4 slices bread (day old is best)
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup minced onion
1 egg, slightly beaten
2 tsp. seasoned salt (Lawry's)
6 thin lemon slices (optional)
6 hamburger buns (buttered)

BBQ SAUCE:

1/2 cup ketchup (Hunts)
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 tsp. dry mustard
1/4 tsp. allspice
1/4 tsp. ground clove

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Combine sauce ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.

In a large bowl combine ground beef, bread, lemon juice, onion, egg. Season. and mix well. I find that hands work the best for this. Form into 6 patties. Place in a greased 13x9-inch baking pan.

Bake at 350°F for 15 minutes. Cover with sauces and top each burger with a lemon slice. Bake another 30 minutes.

Serve on buttered hamburger buns.

Makes 6 burgers.
