Our Favorite Burger

rawburgers.jpg

 

I missed the deadline, darnit! Paul's Big Burger Ballyhoo is an event I wanted to enter and I just noticed that the deadline was midnight last night. I'm going to try to sneak this in... maybe he'll let me squeak by!

I just wanted to write a quick post about our favorite way to make a burger. These are so moist and delicious...full of flavor and really simple to put together. We switch these up sometimes by adding red pepper or garlic salt in place of salt. They are always fantastic!

The photo is an old one... not one of my best, but despite their looks, these are so good! 

Burgers.jpgCheddar Bacon Wrapped Hamburgers

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese
1 small onion, chopped
1 egg
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 lb ground beef
12 slices bacon
6 hamburger buns, split
  1. Preheat a grill for high heat.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together the Cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, onion, egg, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper. Crumble in the ground beef, and mix together by hand. Form into 6 patties, and wrap two slices of bacon around each one in both directions. Secure bacon with toothpicks.
  3. Place patties on the grill, and cook for 5 minutes per side, or until well done. Remove toothpicks before serving on hamburger buns.

You're lucky the power went out at our house and the clock stopped because technically we don't know that you missed the deadline. I think we can make room on the grill for this one. My arteries on the other hand...

This made my husband weep...he is on a low cholosterol diet right now. :) Looks tasty, you can't help but love anything wrapped in bacon.

Bacon-wrapperd cheeseburgers? OMG, how can you possible go wrong with those? I'd skip the bun and just have 2...or 3

Oh.My.God. And I thought our stuffed burgers were decadent....these are more than decadent. They look absolutely sinful and totally worth every bite. I can't wait to try these!

Wow...they are delectaburgers! :)

Isn't that cheating? I mean cheddar cheese and bacon, that sounds like a bribe to me and I'd think it''ll get you in under the wire.
I love this idea! It's brilliant!
