How to Make Bacon Wrapped Hamburgers
- Preheat your grill to high heat or preheat your Foreman grill.
- 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.
- Gently crumble in 1.5 lbs ground beef and mix thoroughly with your hands. Be careful not to overmix.
- Form the mixture into 6 equal-sized patties (approximately 3/4 inch thick).
- Wrap each patty with 1 slice of bacon and secure with a toothpick.
- 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.
- Remove toothpicks before serving on toasted hamburger buns. Garnish as desired (e.g., lettuce, tomato, onion rings).
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.
