Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs Ground beef (80% lean, 20% fat)
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 6 slices Cooked bacon, crumbled
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Onion powder
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Ground black pepper
- 4 pieces Burger buns
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 4 pieces Tomato slices
- 4 tbsp Mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp Butter, softened
Instructions
Preheat your grill or skillet to medium-high heat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and ground black pepper. Gently mix until all ingredients are evenly combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into burger patties, about 3/4-inch thick.
Lightly grease the grill grates or skillet with oil to prevent sticking.
Place the burger patties on the preheated grill or skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F for medium doneness.
While the burgers are cooking, lightly butter the insides of the burger buns and toast them on the grill or skillet until golden brown, approximately 1-2 minutes.
Assemble the burgers: Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Add a lettuce leaf, a cooked burger patty, a tomato slice, and the top half of the bun.
Serve the burgers immediately with your favorite sides, such as fries or a fresh salad. Enjoy!
