York countian Jeannette Peery happened to mention at the end of a recent phone conversation that she's aware that someone floated that same recipe that appeared in the York Sunday News past Joe Bury.

He said that the recipe was missing an ingredient but would not mention what it was.

His inquirer guessed Worcestershire Sauce, and Joe Bury confirmed that was, indeed, what was missing.

But Joe Bury's would not say how much.

Jeannette Peery handles that problem this way: "Keep adding to taste."

She uses her recipe regularly, and it's always a hit. She added that some of the hamburgers available publicly that reportedly use the recipe 'don't taste the same.'

So, adding in Jeannette Perry's ingredient - Worcestershire Sauce - here is the recipe up to the moment:

Bury's Hamburger Recipe

1 cup ketchup
2 cups water
1 tsp. mustard
1 tsp. vinegar
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
2 TB sugar
4 TB dried onion
Worcestershire Sauce (keep adding to taste)

Boil all ingredients, then simmer 10 minutes. Add cooked hamburgers and simmer.

I guess to get this right, a previous experience with real Bury's burgers is necessary. But for now, does this recipe sound right to Bury's aficionados? And any other Bury's memories?
