Sweet fancy Moses! \u00a0These burgers were my favorite out of all the burgers in the Zinnecker Burger Marathon. \u00a0The burgers were moist, juicy, flavorful, delectable, mouthwatering…crazy good.<\/p>\n

I baked a bag of sweet potato fries served with spicy aioli (courtesy of Carrie Hartman) to accompany these burgers and they were the perfect match.<\/p>\n

I adapted this recipe from an allrecipes.com burger recipe<\/a> of the same name. \u00a0Here is my adapted recipe and the recipe for the aioli which I also used on the burgers.<\/p>\n
