My hubby loved the burger. Had to substitute red wine vinegar because my husband's allergic to balsamic, but it still tasted yummy!

    loved it! i used gouda instead of provolone but it went really well. had it with all the 'optional' trimmings - and the only problem i had with this was trying to eat it in a ladylike fashion since it was so big! this is precious "junkfood", will be making again.

    This was very good! I cooked these in a grill pan on the stove, since it's the middle of winter right now, but they turned out very well and got to cook in the juices. This is a lunchtime keeper! Thanks.

    Wow!! My family give this recipe 10 stars! The marinade is similar to what my husband used to marinade meat in before we became vegetarian. We let the mushrooms and marinade sit in a large ziplock bag for 3 hours and it gave it great flavor. The dijon mustard also adds to the taste of this "burger." Great mix of flavors. Thanks PaulaG!
