DS21 says, "That was really good. Too bad there was only one left." Yes, these were terrific, and enjoyed by all! In the future I would either use smaller rolls or make more meat, the patties we made weren't a match for the large rolls. DH wouldn't barbecue in the dark and rain, so I used the broiler, which was fine. We had no yellow capsicum and used an extra red, but only the photo suffered, and not much. Made for Beverage Tag.
