So there were a LOT of modifications enacted (no onions, no BBQ, no bacon, no slaw, no mustard, added an egg for texture) but these burgers were still SOOOOO TASTY! They were crazy tender, and tasted crazy-good with hoisin sauce.

Wow! I'm so glad I took the plunge and tried this recipe because the burgers were fantastic. I am sad though because I didn't really taste any of the peanut butter (maybe we just need more next time ) but the burgers were really juicy and I'm surprised how well they held together. I forgot to brush them with barbecue sauce but I definitely will next time! Thanks!

Hey...pretty clever with the peanut butter - it caught my eye!! I don't eat ground meat so I used a TSP "Lite Life" product and used soy "fakes" instead of bacon...I tried to include all the rest to not totally butcher Wildflour's recipe idea. I did make one other small change...in addition to the coleslaw, I used sliced cabbage to give my burger EXTRA crunch. I loved the hint of nut...as a kid I often ate peanut butter and cheese sandwiches so I had a feeling I would enjoy this!! I used provolone cheese served the burgers on low cal/low carb whole wheat bread because that's what I had at hand. Thanks for sharing this for the ZWT3 game...I loved this "Love-Me- Tender Nut Burger"!!!
