Ingredients:
8 ounce(s) bacon cooked until crisp, coarsely chopped |
1 pound(s) (85% lean) ground beef chuck |
salt and pepper |
4 potato or brioche buns |
1/4 cup(s) mayonnaise |
1/4 cup(s) ketchup |
5 ounce(s) sliced sharp yellow cheddar or american cheese |
1 large tomato thinly sliced |
2 cup(s) baby romaine leaves |
Directions:
1. Preheat a grill to medium. Place the bacon in a large bowl, crumble the beef on top and season with salt and plenty of pepper; toss well. Shape the meat mixture into four 3 1/2 to 4 inch patties. 2. Using a serrated knife, trim the bun tops and bottoms so they will sit flat on the grill. Spread the mayo and ketchup on the insides of both halves; divide the cheese among the bottoms; cover with the tops. 3. Place the patties and cheese-filled buns on the grill; with the buns over a cooler area; cover and cook until the patties are medium, both sides of the buns are toasted and the cheese is melted, about 2 minutes. Transfer the buns to plates and open carefully. Place a patty, a tomato slice and some lettuce on each bun bottom; replace the bun tops. |
