  <introduction>
    <![CDATA[<p>This has been an alltime family favourite. We use the smaller buns for deck parties and the larger buns for a main meal with a large salad. Recipe can be doubled or tripled to match size of group&#8211;I make a single recipe at a time to ensure ingredients get mixed evenly.  Patties can be made ahead and frozen a short time until needed. Instead of the &#8216;Alternate&#8217; mustard/butter mix on the  buns prepared mustard can be drizzeled per taste after serving.</p>]]>

  <instructions>
    <![CDATA[<ol>
	<li>Heat barbecue to 450 degrees. Hand mix all ingredients except for buns, butter and mustard. Form into patties- I do mine 1/2 inch thick&#8211;to overlap edges of bun. Allow a bit for shrinkage when cooked. </li>
		<li>Wipe grill with vegetable oil and lay patties on hot grill. Sear one side&#8211;3 minutes. Turn barbecue to come down to 400 degrees. Turn over and sear second side another 3 minutes. Optional: A slice of cheese can be put on the patties when searing second side. Cook at lower temperature to desired taste. </li>
		<li>While patties are cooking slice buns and brown inside and out &#8216;til golden. Alternative: Before putting buns on grill mix butter and mustard and smear insides of buns&#8211;brown outside of buns first.</li>
		<li>Serve with slices of gherkins (or dill), tomatoes, white onion and lettuce for garnish.</li>
