Yes, it was a long recipe. I've never taken so long to make a burger in my life. But it was interesting and different, which is why I decided to try it. Everyone in the family loved the root beer glaze, which I will definitely make again. I liked the Zydeco sauce, but then I like horseradish and spicy things. I did alter the recipe slightly by using milder green tabasco rather than the usual red, otherwise I think my family would have found it too spicy.

I found one mistake in the recipe though, which was annoying. The list of ingredients, which I took to the supermarket, did not include fennel, but in the directions for the slaw it says to put in fennel. :/

Everyone born a Yankee isn't missing their manners! :-

These are great recipes that combine to make a great meal! I too am hesitant about the Zydeco Sauce but can adjust the amount on the buns. The 'Slaw and the Root Beer Glaze are great. Cyndee, what you saw were multiple recipes with the total preparation time - deep, slow breaths before you fire off a criticism from the comfort of your keyboard, and remember - you can find long recipes in Bon Appetit!

Prayers and love to everyone on the Gulf Coast.

This was a good burger, I thought that the Zydeco sauce might have been a little overpowering, and while it wasnt overpowering, it had a kick to it. Might I suggest instead of using Tabasco or Chili Sauce, using sport peppers?(mini peppers pickled in vinegar? Louisiana Chef is my favorite brand. But overall good burger.

And Carol, dont pay Cyndee any mind. Thats just a yankee with an underdeveloped palate and no appreciation for southern cooking. Probably the type of person who would order whole oatmeal at Cafe Dumont.

Good recipe.

Tried this one and although the root beer glaze came on a little sweet at the start this is a great idea and one heck of a good burger. I would point out the recipe level isn't "easy" and the intermediate rating is fair. This isn't something you're going to throw at the kids.

Come on Cyndee, get over your bleu self and give it a try.

Bon Appetit back at ya!

If you don't have anything else to do than to rate a recipe that you haven't tried, go out and play in TRAFFIC!

Watched "Challenge: America's Best Burger", and while this wasn't my favorite entry, it definitely gets points for originality and local flavor. I would love to try one, but I think once would be enough. And I'd have to agree, the ingredient list is a little intimidating, especially for a casual backyard barbecue.

But, if you are adventurous, and are looking to impress guests with a different type of burger (esp during Mardis Gras, this would be hard to beat.

Cyndee, how unfair of you to rate this recipe one star when you haven't even tried it. This burger recipe was for a competition with a large cash prize, so it has to be way above your "throw this stuff together, make a patty and cook". What a petty, tiny-minded review.

This is the single worst, unnecessarily long recipe I have EVER seen. You want a bleu burger... toss a bunch of crumbled bleu chese and a handful of carmelized onion, make a patty and BBQ !!
Bon Appetit !
