Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 4 slices bacon slices
- 1 cup white mushrooms
- 1 tablespoon coconut aminos
- 4 slices Paleo-friendly pepper jack cheese
- 8 leaves large lettuce leaves
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high to prepare for cooking the patties later.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and place them on a paper towel to drain, leaving the bacon fat in the skillet.
Slice the mushrooms into thin pieces. In the same skillet with the leftover bacon fat, add the mushrooms and sauté them over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes or until they are browned and tender. Add the coconut aminos to the mushrooms, stir well, and continue cooking for another 2 minutes. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, sea salt, and black pepper. Mix gently with your hands until just combined. Form the mixture into 4 equal patties.
Lightly brush the grill grates with avocado oil to prevent sticking. Place the beef patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your preferred level of doneness.
Place a slice of Paleo-friendly pepper jack cheese on each patty during the last minute of cooking on the grill to allow it to melt slightly.
To assemble each burger, use two lettuce leaves per burger as a wrap. Start with one lettuce leaf as the base, place the beef patty on top, add a slice of crispy bacon, followed by a generous spoonful of the sautéed mushrooms, and finally cover with another lettuce leaf.
Serve the Paleo Bacon Mushroom Jack Burgers immediately, while hot and fresh, with your favorite Paleo-friendly condiments, if desired.
