Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef (80% lean)
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 4 slices Cooked bacon, crumbled
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 4 pieces Hamburger buns
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 1 large Tomato, sliced
- 8 slices Pickles
- 4 tablespoons Ketchup (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Mustard (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until just combined. Do not overwork the meat.
Divide the seasoned ground beef into 8 equal portions. Flatten each portion into a thin patty, approximately ¼-inch thick.
In a smaller bowl, mix the shredded cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon. This will be the filling for the burgers.
Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the cheese and bacon mixture onto the center of 4 of the patties.
Place the remaining 4 patties on top of the filled ones, carefully pressing the edges together to seal the filling inside. Make sure there are no gaps to prevent the cheese from leaking during cooking.
Preheat a grill or stovetop skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grate or pan to prevent sticking.
Cook the burgers for 4–5 minutes per side, or until fully cooked to an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C). Avoid pressing down on the burgers while cooking to keep the filling intact.
While the burgers are cooking, lightly toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a cooked inside-out burger patty. Top with a slice of tomato, two pickle slices, and condiments such as ketchup or mustard, if desired.
Place the top half of the bun over the assembled burger and serve immediately. Enjoy your delicious, cheesy Inside Out Burger!
