Apples on hamburgers?  That is interesting.  Do they do anything to 
tenderize the meat or just give a nice flavor?

You can find apple slices in a jar.  I buy them to use when I bake
hamburgers--laying a slice of apple on each burger.

I'm beginning to think that a lot of people have dropped off.  Everybody

Debra Peining is right. I don't think the list is at all quiet. I keep getting 
a lot of recipes from everybody who sends them. I can't save them all.

The list is definitely very much alive and well once again.

Actually, what I'm saying is that I do think the list has been quiet,
especially compared to what it was before we changed servers.  It's kind of
refreshing this way, though, and certainly much easier to manage!  I've
actually had time to look through recipes!

Remember, you are baking the burgers at about 375 degrees.  The apples give 
the burgers a nice taste and you can make a little sauce with the drippings 
and a little cornstarch if you like.  You can serve them off the bun with 
potatoes and a salad or on the bun with some good cheese and a little 
mayonnaise.
