How to Make Bacon Double Cheese Stuffed Burgers
- Preheat your grill, broiler, or pan to medium-high heat.
- Prepare the filling: Finely chop 1/2 cup of onion. Cook 4 slices of bacon until crispy, then crumble. Shred 1 cup of sharp cheddar cheese.
- Combine the cooked bacon, chopped onion, and shredded cheddar cheese in a bowl. Set aside.
- In a separate large bowl, gently combine 1.5 lbs ground beef, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, and 1/4 cup of beer (optional). Avoid overmixing.
- Divide the beef mixture into 6 equal portions. Shape each portion into a thin patty.
- Divide the bacon and cheese mixture evenly among 3 of the patties. Top each with a second patty, pressing the edges firmly to seal.
- Grill, broil, or pan-fry the stuffed burgers for approximately 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
- Serve immediately on toasted buns with your favorite toppings. Enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
