GREEN-EYED MONSTER BURGERS

A burger with a tasty dill pickle surprise in the middle! Another find from the www.ilovepickles.com website. It notes you can mold burgers into hot-dog shapes and use sliced-lengthwise pickles if you want to use hot dog buns. Times are a guess-timate until I can make 'em.
