Ultimate Bacon Double Cheeseburger 🥓🧀🍔
Ingredients:
For the Beef Patties:
1 1/2 lbs ground beef (80/20 blend)
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce (optional)
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
For the Toppings:
8 slices of cheddar cheese
8 slices of crispy bacon
1 large onion, sliced and caramelized
BBQ sauce (for a smoky flavor)
Mayonnaise (for spreading)
Ketchup (optional)
For Assembly:
4 sesame seed brioche buns, lightly toasted
Butter or oil for grilling
Instructions:
1️⃣ Make the Beef Patties: In a bowl, mix the ground beef with Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and form into thin, even patties.
2️⃣ Cook the Patties: Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are browned and cooked through. Place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty while they are still hot to melt.
3️⃣ Cook the Bacon: While the patties are cooking, fry the bacon until crispy. Drain on paper towels.
4️⃣ Caramelize the Onions: In the same skillet, add sliced onions and cook over medium heat until they are soft, golden, and caramelized.
5️⃣ Assemble the Burger: Spread mayonnaise on the bottom bun. Place a cheesy beef patty on the bun, followed by a slice of crispy bacon, a spoonful of caramelized onions, and a drizzle of BBQ sauce. Stack another patty with cheese and repeat the layering. Finish with a bit of ketchup (optional) and the top bun.
6️⃣ Serve: Serve warm with your favorite sides like fries or onion rings. Enjoy this double-stacked, cheesy, and savory creation!
Notes:
For an extra juicy burger, avoid pressing down on the patties while cooking.
Add some pickles or jalapeños for a tangy or spicy kick!
