Gourmet Burgers

Ok, so I promised when I made them again, I would take pictures and post.  So here they are... Woot! Woot!

Gourmet ______ Burgers 

The reason the blank is there is that you can add whatever you wish.  The last ones that I made were Gourmet Bacon Cheddar Burgers, the one pictured above was Gourmet Bacon Burgers ... LOL 

I added cheese to the top of mine, Dean did not want cheese (go figure!) so I did not add.  

In your very own pretty pinkish bowl, add 1/2 of an onion minced,  cut up about 3 strips of bacon, 1 teaspoon of minced garlic, one egg, 2 bread slices - crumbled, 1 teaspoon of steak seasoning (see photo above - you can use whatever you have on hand), 1 teaspoon instant gourmet seasoning (see photo above - I purchased at the Fresh Market), salt and pepper to taste (not a lot since the seasonings have some).  

I work the mixture together with 1/2 a pound or more of 80/20 ground beef and make sure it still has a "wet" texture.  I then shape into patties.  

I like the patties shaped kind of rough, but you can make perfect should you desire.  I cooked on the stove top, but you could easily do these in your George Foreman grill.  I serve on heated hamburger buns and then top with whatever I want.  I served with my AWESOME baked beans and mac 'n cheese.  I may write up the baked beans recipe next, so stay tuned! 

  

I hope you enjoy!
