The A&W Papa Burger:
Mix the mayonnaise with the relish to make the "secret sauce". Set aside for now.
Preparing the Papa Burger: 1. On waxed paper, form the 1/5 pound beef patty. It should be about 1/4 inch thick and 5 inches in diameter. Freeze at least an hour.
2. Fire up the indoor electric grill, or outdoor barbecue. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for pre-heating.
3. Toast the buns by laying them face down on the grill for 30-60 seconds. (About :30 for outdoor barbecue, :60 for indoor.)
4. Cook the frozen beef patty about 2 minutes per side, (outdoor barbecue) or 3 minutes per side (indoor barbecue grill). Salt and pepper liberally on both sides.
5. Dress your toasted top buns (crown) in the following order:
special sauce, pickles, lettuce, cheese
6. Place the cooked beef patty on top of the dressed bun, and add the bottom. (heel)
7. Microwave about 10 seconds to warm the bun, and serve.
8. OR...wrap in a 12"x12" sheet of foil, and warm in your oven (200 degrees F) 2-3 minutes--then serve.

A&W Onion Rings:
1. Preheat the deep fryer to 375 degrees F.
2. Combine the tempura mix with the spices and liquid to make a batter, using a fork. There will be some small lumps.....don't worry about those.
3. Slice the onion, and separate all of the rings.
4. Dip the individual rings in the batter, and drop into the preheated oil.
5. Deep fry 3-5 minutes until golden brown. Remove to a paper towel lined plate, salt lightly, and serve hot!
A&W Chili Dogs
Making the Chili Dog Sauce: 1. In a 2 qt. saucepan, brown the ground chuck, breaking into very small pieces. Salt and pepper lightly while cooking. Do not drain the fat.
2. Add the remaining ingredients. Simmer, uncovered, 30-45 minutes until it thickens. Stir occasionally.
3. Allow to cool, cover, and refrigerate until "Dog-Time". You'll be microwaving what you need later.
Cooking your A&W Chili Dog 1. Bring a 2 qt. saucepan of water to a rolling boil.
2. Remove the saucepan from the heat, and add the desired number of frankfurters to the water. Cover and let sit about 10 minutes.
3. After the franks are done, microwave the chili dog sauce until steaming. (Only microwave what you need, save the rest) Then microwave each hot dog roll 10 seconds....just enough to warm.
4. Remove the cooked franks with tongs, and place on the microwaved hot dog roll.
5. Add about 3 Tablespoons of your prepared A&W chili dog sauce, and the chopped onion. Grated cheddar cheese is optional.

I am dying for a papa burger but there is no red relish on it.When I worked there we made the special sauce and it was like tartar sauce very good to dip fries in.Also there was tomato slice on the papa burger.No mayo just the special sauce.

wammara REVIEW:
January 16, 2009i don't understand why you think there is bbq sauce on a teen burger? i worked there for years and i agree with the above recipes, seasoning salt (so far no name matches the closests to it) and mustard, ketchup, pickles (it is two pickles and they can't touch), diced onions on the bottom bun. Mayo, lettuce and tomato on top bun. Cheese and bacon on the patty.

ahouston REVIEW:
September 15, 2008All of A&W burgers exept for the mozz have the following on the bottom half of the bun. 1/3 oz mustard, 1/2 oz ketchup, 1 oz diced onion and 3 dill chips. Teens have 1 slice cheese, 2 slices bacon, tomato, lettuce and mayo. There is a sprinkle of seasoning salt on the patties.

You are forgetting the seasoning salt. A&W puts seasoning salt on everything, especially the burgers while frying. It make a world of difference.
