How to Make Bacon Wrapped Burger With Fried Pickles Slaw

  1. **Prepare the Bacon:**
  2. Line a microwave-safe plate with paper towels. Arrange 12 bacon slices in a single layer. Cover with paper towels.
  3. Microwave on high for 1-2 minutes, or until partially cooked. Drain on paper towels and let cool.
  4. Transfer bacon to a large resealable plastic bag.
  5. In a small bowl, mix 2 tbsp brown sugar, 1 tsp instant coffee granules, and 1/2 tsp garlic powder.
  6. Add the mixture to the bag, seal, and shake to coat the bacon evenly. Set aside.
  7. **Prepare the Patties:**
  8. Season 1.5 lbs ground beef with salt and pepper. Shape into six 3/4-inch thick patties.
  9. Wrap two slices of coated bacon around each patty, securing with wooden toothpicks.
  10. Cover and chill for at least 30 minutes (or up to 24 hours).
  11. **Prepare the Coleslaw:**
  12. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 2 tbsp sugar, 1 tbsp sriracha sauce, and 1/2 tsp salt.
  13. Add 4 cups shredded cabbage, 1 cup shredded carrots, 1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley. Stir to coat.
  14. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste. Cover and chill until ready to serve.
  15. **Grill the Burgers:**
  16. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. For charcoal, arrange coals around a drip pan.
  17. Place patties on the grill rack over the drip pan. Cover and grill for 16-18 minutes, or until the burgers are cooked through and the bacon is crisp.
  18. **Assemble the Burgers:**
  19. Place cooked burgers on bun bottoms.
  20. Top each patty with a generous portion of sriracha coleslaw and fried pickles (recipe not included).
  21. Add bun tops and serve immediately.

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.
