Cola Burgers image

A friend who's an excellent cook shared this hamburger recipe with me, and it has since become a family favorite. The unusual combination of cola and French salad dressing added to the ground beef gives it fabulous flavor. The mixture is also used as a basting sauce on the moist burgers. -Melva Baumer, Millmont, Pennsylvania

I'm not a big fan of cola, but I actually really enjoyed these burgers. The cola flavor is subtle and it really complements the beef.

These burgers were a bit dry for my taste. I think I would have preferred a juicier burger.
