Ingredients for Bacon Wrapped Hamburgers

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1.5 lbs ground beef
  • 6 slices bacon
  • 6 hamburger buns

How to Make Bacon Wrapped Hamburgers

  1. Preheat your grill to high heat or preheat your Foreman grill.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/2 cup finely chopped onion, 1 large egg, 2 tablespoons ketchup, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Gently crumble in 1.5 lbs ground beef and mix thoroughly with your hands. Be careful not to overmix.
  4. Form the mixture into 6 equal-sized patties (approximately 3/4 inch thick).
  5. Wrap each patty with 1 slice of bacon and secure with a toothpick.
  6. Place patties on the preheated grill and cook for 5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) and the bacon is crispy. For Foreman grill, follow manufacturer's instructions, adjusting cooking time as needed.
  7. Remove toothpicks before serving on toasted hamburger buns. Garnish as desired (e.g., lettuce, tomato, onion rings).

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
