Bbq Bacon Jalapeno Cheddar Stuffed Burgers Recipes

THE BEST BACON CHEDDAR STUFFED BURGER

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix together ground beef, egg, Worcestershire sauce, onion, salt, pepper and ¼ cup cheddar cheese. You may need to use your hand to get in evenly combined. Let stand (see cooking tips section above for reasons).
• Heat a medium skillet or non-stick pan to medium-high heat. Add bacon strips, cook for 3-4 minutes without touching. Rotate and cook other side 2-3 minutes, or until slightly crispy. Remove from heat, drain off excess oil, and break bacon into chunks.
• Divide meat mixture in half for each burger. Press about 2/3 off one half into the burger press (it should be almost full). Press top mold to create an open center. You may need to practice a couple times to get the right amount (see animated photo above for help). Fill one burger with 1/8 cup cheese, and half of cooked bacon and jalapeño. Top with more meat and use burger press to seal top down. Remove and repeat steps for second burger.
• Preheat barbecue (I used gas) to medium-high. Lightly grease grill slats with oil; this helps prevent sticking. Place patties onto grill, close, and cook first side for 4-6 minutes. It should release from the grill and have grill marks. Flip and cook other side for 4-6 minutes until cooked to desire doneness. With those times it should be just over medium. If you're used to using your fingers to test firmness, the stuffed center makes it more squishy, so be sure to not overcook.
• Grill hamburger buns if desired. Mash avocado in a bowl. Place burger patties in buns, top with avocado and enjoy the best juiciest burger.

BACON JALAPENO CHEDDAR STUFFED BURGERS

Steps:

• To form perfectly cooked patties, consider using a burger press.
• Preheat grill or griddle to high heat. Divide ground beef equally into three portions. For each portion, take about 2/3 of it and form it into a very flat patty with sides (again, this is super easy if using the burger press). Divide the jalapeno, bacon pieces, and cheese into three equal portions. Add 1/2 of the toppings to the meat. With the remaining 1/3, form the meat into a thin circle and top patty, sealing all edges. The goal is to have only ground beef on the outside and all of the toppings in the middle.
• Cook over a hot grill or griddle, 5-8 minutes per side, until done. Enjoy!

JALAPEñO & CHEDDAR STUFFED BACON CHEESEBURGERS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine beef, seasonings, egg and breadcrumbs and knead together with clean hands. Form 4 thin hamburger patties. On two of the patties, place cubes cheddar and chopped jalapeños in the centre, place a second beef patty on top, molding the edges together to form one burger patty.
• Pan fry or grill the burgers 5-6 minutes per side on medium heat, only flipping once. No oil needed, use a non-stick frying pan. Before removing from the pan, place Kraft single slices on the burgers for a minute or two to melt.
• Place burgers on a toasted bun, or bed of crispy lettuce, and top with tomato, onion, lettuce, and bacon. Spread mayo on the top bun and place on top to finish. Serve with your choice of side and enjoy!

BBQ BACON JALAPENO CHEDDAR STUFFED BURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat your grill (direct grilling over high heat).
• Meanwhile, in a medium skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add onion and jalapeno and cook until softened. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
• Divide the ground beef into 8 equal portions. Divide each of the 8 portions in half - for a total of 16 chunks of ground beef. On waxed paper, flatten 8 of the chunks of ground beef into thin patty shapes.
• In a medium bowl, combine the bacon, cheese and the veggie mixture. Mix well. Place about ¼ cup of the mixture in the center of each of the 8 patties.
• Take the other 8 chunks of ground beef and flatten slightly between your hands and place one portion on top of one the patties with the bacon, cheese and veggie mixture. Carefully seal the 2 beef patties together. Season the top with salt and pepper.
• Place the burgers on the grill and grill for approximately 4-5 minutes. (Use your best judgment here - all grills are different!) Carefully flip and continue to cook the patties for another 3-4 minutes or until the meat is cooked through (cook to 160°).
• Using a basting brush, brush the burger with BBQ sauce. Allow to cook for an additional minute or two - and baste with BBQ sauce again. Remove the burgers from the grill and allow them to rest for a few minutes before serving. (Now is a great time to toast your buns if you like them toasted!)
• Serve on buns with your favorite condiments and toppings!

STUFFED BACON-CHEDDAR BBQ BURGER

Steps:

• Combine ground round, ground chuck, salt and pepper in a large bowl.
• In another bowl, combine the coarsely shredded sharp cheddar and cooked bacon pieces.
• Let bacon and cheese mixture sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes to get soft.
• Then, shape mixture into balls (for however many burgers you would like to make). Form 2 patties of meat and place one cheese/bacon ball in between them.
• Pinch the sides together to seal in cheese ball. Gently press formed patty, to spread out cheese ball. Continue until all patties are formed.
• Cook burgers on grill over medium flame for about 7 minutes on each side.
• While burgers are grilling, slice sweet Vidalia onions and sauté them in a skillet with 1 tablespoon of butter. Once onions become translucent (about 4 minutes), add some sweet barbecue sauce.
• Flip burgers, and baste the cooked side of the patties with the same sweet barbecue sauce used in the onions.
• After about 7 minutes longer, the burger should be done (these are big thick burgers and may take longer to grill to your liking).
• Baste again with sweet barbecue sauce before removing from grill.
• Butter hamburger buns and place on top rack of grill for several minutes, until toasted.
• To build burger, take toasted bun, add patty, and top with smothered barbecue onions. You can add tomato or lettuce, if you'd like, but the flavors are great without them.
