Lunch: Inside Out Bacon Burger

Ingredients

800g (28 Oz) Ground Beef
8 Slices Chopped Bacon
1/4 Cup Cheddar Cheese
2 Tbsp. Chopped Chives
2 tsp. Minced Garlic
2 tsp. Black Pepper
1 Tbsp. Soy Sauce
1 1/4 tsp. Salt
1 tsp. Onion Powder
1 tsp. Worcestershire

Instructions

1. In a cast iron skillet, start cooking 8 Slices of chopped bacon. You can season with spices if you’d like.
2. Continue cooking it, covering the pan with a grease catcher – this stuff will get seriously messy without one!
3. Once the bacon is cooked, remove it from the pan and set aside on some paper towels to crisp up.
4. In a large mixing bowl, add 800g (28Oz) ground beef.
5. Add 2/3 of your bacon, 2 Tbsp. Chopped Chives, 2 tsp. Minced Garlic, 2 tsp. Black Pepper, 1 Tbsp. Soy Sauce, 1 1/4 tsp. Salt, 1 tsp. Onion Powder, and 1 tsp. Worcestershire Sauce.
6. Mix the meat and spice mixture together well; make sure that all of the spices are evenly distributed in the meat.
7. Form patties with your hands. You should be able to get 9 relatively large patties from this.
8. In a cast iron skillet, add 2 Tbsp. of the previously saved bacon fat. Wait until it gets got and then add your burger patties. You can add 3-4 at a time.
9. Flip the burger patties after 3-5 minutes (depending on the done-ness you want), and continue to cook on the other side.
10. Serve with cheese, extra bacon, and onion if you’d like. Also, feel free to add a dash of sriracha over the top!
