    I've never had a chicken burger and I've never used a rub on any kind of burger. I'm always guaranteed an element of surprise when I visit you!

    I love chicken burgers. Most alternates to red meat use turkey which I hate and I never understood why chicken was never substituted.

    Catherine, Thanks for the recipe. My problem is that chicken burgers tend to be too dry. You recipe may have solved that issue! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
