I had a craving for a nice homemade burger and I stumbled upon another one of Joelen’s recipes. These burgers turned out yummy.

Ingredients:

4 Burger patties:
1.4 lbs ground beef
8 slices of cooked bacon, crumbled and chopped fine
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp dry mustard
2 tsp onion powder
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp pepper
1 tsp garlic salt
4 slices of cheddar cheese

4 onion buns
tomato, sliced
red onion, sliced
spinach leaves
1 avocado, sliced
condiments of your choice

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl, crumble the beef and add the cooked bacon, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, onion powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Using your hands, lightly knead the mixture until combined.
  2. Divide the meat into 4 equal portions, then form each into a loose ball and gently flatten into a 1 inch thick patty. Cover and refrigerate the patties until the grill is ready.
  3. Place the burgers on the grill and cook, without pressing on them, until well seared on both sides and cooked through, roughly 8-12 minutes. Flip the burgers halfway through. Add cheese during the last 4 minutes. Transfer the burgers to a platter to serve with veggies. Enjoy!
