This was soo easy! I added green bell peppers to it just because I didn't want to make a side dish. The patties were delicous, I think I'll make them as hambugers sometime.

    I can't seem to get my stars to stick, so I'll just say this recipe is a very easy 5 stars! I made it for dinner tonight and my DH and I enjoyed it very much! I made exactly as written and it was great! Next time I think I'll double the sauce and serve over rice or pasta. Thanks Lorac, for a great new and easy spin on ground beef!

    Lorac, this was wonderful. I just adore balsamic vinegar and in this recipe it beautifully counters the richness of the parmesan cheese, egg yolks, butter and cream. I doubled the sauce ingredients, added lightly sauteed sliced mushrooms, and served the dish over freshly cooked pasta, garnished with a little chopped parsley. A dish fit for a king!

    What a way to make ground beef taste gourmet! This is spectacular! I followed the directions as written, but served the pattie on a large piece of garlic toast with the sauce drizzled over. My DD was standing next to me while it cooked drooling, she could not wait for it to be done. The patties are fantastic, and the sauce is heavenly. This will be made often in our house. A definite MUST TRY recipe!
