Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 pounds 80/20 ground beef
1/3 cup heavy cream
6 to 8 dashes hot sauce, such as Tabasco
4 dashes Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
6 kaiser rolls
Softened butter, for spreading, plus 2 tablespoons
6 slices Cheddar
6 slices cooked bacon, halved

Steps:

  • Place the beef into a medium mixing bowl. Add the cream, hot sauce, Worcestershire, salt and pepper. With clean hands, mix the meat well. Set aside.
  • Next, slice the rolls in half and spread each half with some softened butter. Place the rolls face-down on a skillet over medium heat. Lightly grill the rolls so they're nice and golden. Let the rolls cool on a plate until you need them.
  • Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the butter. Form the beef mixture into 6 patties and place in the skillet, in batches if needed. Allow each to cook about 4 minutes on the first side, flip them and place a slice of Cheddar on to melt.
  • When the patties are done in the middle, place them on the base of the halved buns. Top each with 2 pieces of the bacon and top with the other half of the rolls.

BEST BACON CHEESEBURGER PIZZA

Provided by Chef Iron B

Categories     Pork

Time 30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

14 ounces pizza dough, Pillsbury tube
4 tablespoons mustard
1/2 cup bacon, chopped
1 cup hamburger, browned
1/2 cup dill pickle, chopped
3 cups pre-shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup white onion, chopped

Steps:

  • Chop the dill pickle and onion then set the pieces on a paper towel to dry.
  • Prepare a small amount of ground hamburger and dice it up to small pieces.
  • Cook bacon and cut it up in to small pieces as well. I usually plan for this meal ahead of time and brown the ground beef a day earlier with a different meal. I save bacon from breakfast and it allows me less cooking when I make this pizza.
  • Follow the directions on the tube of raw pizza dough as far as the prep of the dough.
  • Once the dough is ready to topped apply a thin layer of mustard all over the dough except for the edges.
  • Sprinkle your bacon over the entire pizza followed by the onions and then the hamburger.
  • Cover the pizza with cheese and sprinkle a few pickles on the top.
  • Bake at the time a temperature as instructed on the pizza dough tube. It tastes great!
  • It sounds weird because you may not have ever put pickles or mustard on your pizza but it tastes just like a bacon cheeseburger. It's something different and I enjoy it a lot.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ground beef: Opt for a blend of chuck and sirloin for a juicy and flavorful burger.
  • Season the beef patties generously: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika for a classic burger flavor.
  • Form the patties gently: Handle the ground beef mixture lightly to prevent dense burgers. Use your hands to form loose patties about 3/4-inch thick.
  • Cook the bacon until crispy: Cook the bacon in a single layer in a skillet over medium heat until it's crispy and golden brown.
  • Toast the buns in the bacon grease: Brush the cut sides of the buns with the bacon grease and toast them in the skillet until golden brown and slightly crispy.
  • Load up on your favorite toppings: Classic options include cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles. Get creative and add your own favorites like avocado, mushrooms, or a fried egg.
  • Serve immediately: Bacon cheeseburgers are best enjoyed hot off the grill. Serve them with your favorite sides like fries, onion rings, or a salad.

Conclusion:

The bacon cheeseburger is a timeless classic for a reason. It's a simple yet satisfying combination of juicy ground beef, crispy bacon, melted cheese, and your favorite toppings. With a few simple tips, you can make the best bacon cheeseburgers at home that will rival any restaurant.
