Ingredients for Bacon Wrapped Cheeseburgers

  • Cheddar Cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • Ketchup
  • Parmesan Cheese
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Pepper
  • 1 pound ground beef (80/20 blend recommended)
  • American Cheese
  • 16-24 slices bacon
  • Hamburger Buns

How to Make Bacon Wrapped Cheeseburgers

  1. Preheat your outdoor grill to medium-high heat (approximately 375°F) and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
  2. In a large bowl, gently combine 1 pound ground beef, 1/2 cup bread crumbs, 1/4 cup finely chopped onion, 1 large egg, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Crumble the ground beef into the mixture and gently mix until just combined. Avoid overmixing, as this can result in tough burgers.
  4. Shape the mixture into 8 equal-sized patties, about 3/4 inch thick.
  5. Wrap each patty with 2-3 slices of bacon, securing with a toothpick.
  6. Place the bacon-wrapped patties on the preheated grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the bacon is crispy and the burgers are cooked to your desired doneness. During the last minute of cooking, top each burger with 1 slice of your favorite cheese (cheddar, Swiss, pepper jack, etc.).
  7. Remove the burgers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. Serve on buns with your favorite toppings such as lettuce, tomato, pickles, and onions.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
