In the basement of Hemingway's home in Cuba in an effort to preserve his legend the JFK Library found many articles, letters, etc. One of the items was a typed recipe for a western Burger/ Papa burger. Unfortunately, many ingredients are no longer available so I have taken liberty to create my own version.
