Stir the Worcestershire sauce with the water in a dish.
Soak the hickory chips in this for at least an hour.
Preheat the barbeque.
Combine the ground beef with the hot sauce, onion soup mix and breadcrumbs if used in a large bowl and mix well.
Roll the mixture into 12 patties. If they are not holding together well, then chill them in the refrigerator for a while.
Spread the hickory chips over the hot coals and wait for them to flame up.
Add the patties to the barbeque. Cook them to medium-rare or medium, or until they are done to your liking. They will take anywhere between 10 and 25 minutes to cook through.
While the burgers cook, you should watch them and flip them often. Serve and enjoy.
Notes
Hamburgers sizzling on the grill are always very much in demand, and do not be surprised if you see the guests standing in line at your next cookout because the aroma of these is simply fantastic. This recipe promises all the sizzle without any of the fizzles because the hickory chips add the most amazing flavor to your burgers. Have seeded buns ready as well as lettuce, tomato and perhaps a slice of cheese to complement each one too. These will be the highlight of the barbeque, and everyone will love how juicy and succulent they are.
