Some Meaty Tips.

Cooking hamburgers on a very hot fire? Poke a hole in the center of each one while shaping it.  That will help the center cook faster..and the whole will be gone when the burger is cooked.

Lumpless gravy can be achieved, if you add a pinch of salt to the flour before mixing it with water.
