Note from Sabrina
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.

About this Recipe
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 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!

How to Store
- Serve: Store your Bacon Bacon Burgers after 2 hours at room temperature.
- Store: Keep these burgers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days in an airtight container or storage bag.
- Freeze: Flash freeze burgers on a baking sheet for 30-45 minutes and then transfer to a freezer bag. Freeze for up to 2 months.
Oven Baked Method
- Preheat 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 desired doneness.
Variations
- 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.

- 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 Cheddar Burger.
- Steakhouse: Nothing says steakhouse burger like melty bleu cheese, sautéed Garlic Mushrooms, and a bit of steak sauce topping the patties.
