These irresistibly juicy and delicious hamburgers are set to be the star of your summer grill. Sweet, savory, and perfectly seasoned. Mouthwatering flavors of the juicy beef patty, sizzling on the grill will draw everyone to the backyard. Load them up with melting cheese, fresh lettuce and tomatoes, grilled onions and sautéed mushrooms. Get ready to savor joyful gatherings and cookouts with these unforgettable hamburgers that are sure to make this summer one to remember.

I’ve had hundreds of requests for this recipe and finally decided it needed a permanent spot where you can easily find it for all your summer cookouts. Feel free to play around with the ingredient amounts. This is a very loose recipe for what we do. Add more bacon, less cheese, or more cheese and less brown sugar! I’ve made these with beef, turkey, and even elk meat. Use what you liked, the sky is the limit. Experiment with different toppings like avocado, caramelized onions, or a tangy barbecue sauce. Additionally, you can try using different types of cheese such as blue cheese, feta, or smoked Gouda for unique flavor profiles. Don’t hesitate to mix in some finely chopped herbs like rosemary, thyme, or parsley for a fresh and aromatic twist. The possibilities are endless when it comes to customizing this recipe to suit your preferences. Enjoy the creative freedom and savor the delicious results at your next outdoor gathering!

We usually make 6-8 burgers out of the recipe amounts listed. Make them larger or smaller to your preference.

We love topping ours with sautéed mushrooms, grilled onions, smashed avadaco, lettuce, tomatoes (once the are fresh from the garden), pickles, and mayo.

Grilling them on a Traeger Grill takes them to a whole new level!

We hope you enjoy these at all your summer cook outs as much as we do!

Happy Grilling!

Ingredients Method

Ingredients

  

• 1 – 1 1/2 lbs ground beef
• 1 egg
• 1/3-1/2 cup brown sugar
• 8-12 ounces bacon, chopped
• 1/2 cup cheddar cheese, cubed
• a little salt and pepper

Toppings

• favorite BBQ sauce
• sliced cheddar cheese
• garlic powder

Method

 

1. Partially cook, chopped bacon. (Sometimes I skip this step and just throw the chopped bacon into the meat mixture)
2. Next, add all other ingredients to a large bowl and mix together. Play with the amounts and add more or less to your liking! We have also made these with ground turkey and a mixture. Form into patties. We usually get 6-8 depending on the size you want.
3. Cook on a hot grill, sprinkle with garlic powder. After about 5-7 minutes, flip & sprinkle the other side with garlic powder. Spread on BBQ sauce. Cook another 5 minutes or until desired doneness. A few minutes before they are done cooking add your sliced cheddar cheese to melt.

   Serve and enjoy!
4. We love topping ours with sautéed mushrooms, grilled onions, smashed avadaco, cold lettuce and pickles… plus a little mayo.
