âI found this in a local newspaper 25 years ago when I was a newlywed,â recalls Lana Maskus of Wright, Kansas. âMy husband raved about, and I have served it at least once a month ever since. My daughter took the recipe with her to college and uses it frequently. These are also good when cooked on an outdoor grill,â she adds. Ingredients:
6 bacon strips |
2 eggs, lightly beaten |
3/4 cup crushed saltines |
2 tablespoons chopped onion |
1-1/2 teaspoons salt |
1/8 teaspoon pepper |
1 pound ground turkey or beef |
1/2 cup ketchup |
2 tablespoons brown sugar |
1/4 teaspoon ground mustard |
Directions:
1. Place bacon on a microwave-safe plate lined with paper towels. Cover with another paper towel; microwave on high for 2-3 minutes or until cooked but not crisp. 2. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the eggs, saltines, onion, salt and pepper. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well. Shape into six patties. Wrap bacon strips around patties; secure with toothpicks. Broil 3-4 in. from the heat for 6 minutes. 3. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the ketchup, brown sugar and mustard. Turn patties; top with ketchup mixture. Broil 6-7 minutes longer or until meat is no longer pink and a meat thermometer reads 160°. Discard toothpicks. Yield: 6 servings. |
