I have been married to a wonderful Christian man since 1976. The Lord has blessed us with two daughters and two sons. I consider each day the Lord gives me on the earth yet another chance to serve Him.

Pork Burgers

I use my blender to ground up bacon to add to the ground pork.  It adds so much flavor.  If you can't grind up the bacon, then substitute with olive oil to add some fat to the burger.
