Are you a vegetarian invited to a bbq cook out, and friends do not know what to prepare for you.
The menu is often hot dogs, chicken, and grilled steak
Even if even you do eat alot of vegetarian dishes, this is good tasting burger a beef eater would even enjoy.

For the marinate
2/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/3 cup balsamic
2 each truvia or 1 teaspoon sugar
2 each garlic cloves chopped
1 teaspoon salt or to taste
½ teaspoon fresh cracked pepper or to taste
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
4 each stem less portobello mushrooms (wipe with damp cloth to clean)
