I was so happy to find such an interesting recipe containing so many items that make them absolutely delicious!! We are making these super-luxiurous cheeseburgers for Memorial Day but instead of making them regular size we are making them bite-size. F&W Magazine, 06/2006 Recipe by Grace Parisi. From Speedy Rubs, Pastes, & Sauces. About the paste, Grace Parisi likes to work a little paste into ground meats, steaks or chops - it adds an incredible flavor! Also use lightly on tofu, shrimp and chicken before grilling.;) Ingredients:
