Some burger recipes call for eggs and breadcrumbs to form the patties but this Bacon Bacon Burger is just meat and seasoning. The natural fats in the cooked bacon bind with the ground beef so that you get maximum smoky beef and bacon flavor in every bite.

This Bacon Bacon Burger uses crispy cooked bacon chopped up and mixed into the patties so there is a bit of crunch in every bite. You can also chop the raw bacon into small pieces and add that to the ground beef. The flavor will be richer and even more delicious since the bacon grease cooks with the meat!

For the juiciest, most flavorful burgers, it comes down to two things. The first is the type of ground beef you use. You want to use ground chuck that has an 85/15 meat to fat ratio. Secondly, you don’t want to handle the burger too much, just enough to combine the ingredients and form the patties.

These Bacon Bacon Burgers are naturally gluten free and Keto friendly. You can serve them on lettuce wraps for a healthier summer dinner that leaves more room for sides. Serve your Bacon Bacon Burgers with classic sides like Onion Rings or French Fries.

CAN YOU MAKE BACON BACON BURGERS IN THE OVEN?

Yes! To make Bacon Bacon Burgers in the oven, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lay the burgers on a baking sheet lined with foil and dust with flour. You can also use a baking rack in place of the foil. Bake for 20 minutes, or until they have reached the desired doneness.

VARIATIONS ON BACON BACON BURGERS

  • Meat: Use other ground meat like ground turkey or ground chicken in this recipe, but it’s best to add a little oil to keep leaner meats juicy in a burger.
  • Cheese: Make these Bacon Bacon Cheeseburgers by adding a slice of your favorite cheese. Add pepper jack, Monterey Jack, or American to each patty after you have flipped them.
  • Barbecue: Top these burgers with your favorite barbecue sauce and crispy Fried Onion Strings, and an optional thick slice of sharp cheddar, for a Barbecue Bacon Bacon Burger.
  • Steakhouse: Nothing says steakhouse burger like melty bleu cheese, sautéed Garlic Mushrooms, and a bit of steak sauce topping these Bacon Bacon Burger patties. 
  • Fresh Ground: Have a butcher grind fresh short ribs or Angus beef with raw center-cut bacon for decadent, rich burger meat. Serve with a bacon jam and caramelized onions for a really fancy burger perfect for a casual romantic dinner for two!
