How to Make Bacon Stuffed Burgers

  1. Cook 1 pound of bacon until nice and crispy. Remove from heat and set aside, reserving 2 tablespoons of bacon fat.
  2. Saute 1 medium onion, chopped, in the reserved bacon fat until softened. Approximately 5 minutes.
  3. Add 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms to the skillet with the onions. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  4. Crumble the cooked bacon and add it to the skillet with the onions and mushrooms. Mix well and set aside.
  5. In a large bowl, gently combine 1 pound ground beef, 1/2 pound ground pork, 4 ounces shredded cheddar cheese, 1 teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 2 tablespoons steak sauce.
  6. Shape the meat mixture into 16 patties, about 1/2 inch thick.
  7. Divide the bacon and mushroom mixture evenly among 8 of the patties.
  8. Top each filled patty with a remaining patty, pressing the edges firmly to seal.
  9. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Fry the stuffed patties for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
  10. Check the internal temperature with a meat thermometer to ensure doneness. Serve immediately on your favorite buns with your favorite toppings.
