Traditional Bacon Burger Recipe: Simple, Tasty, Timeless

And now, moving on to what we really care about: the traditional recipe for delicious bacon burgers. We recommend using two beef patties per burger. If we’re on the dance floor, then let’s dance, shall we?

Ingredients for Beef Patties:

• 1 pound ground beef
• Salt and pepper to taste

Ingredients for Burger Assembly:

• 4 burger buns
• 8 strips of bacon
• 4 slices of cheddar cheese 
• Lettuce leaves
• Tomato slices
• Onion slices
• Pickle slices
• Ketchup
• Mustard
• Butter

Instructions for Beef Patties:

1. Divide the ground beef into four equal portions.
2. Gently shape each portion into a patty, ensuring they are evenly sized and shaped.
3. Season both sides of the patties with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat.
5. Cook the beef patties for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
6. Place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty during the last minute of cooking and let it melt.

Instructions for Burger Assembly:

1. While the beef patties are cooking, cook the bacon strips in a separate skillet until crisp. Drain on paper towels and set aside.
2. Brush both inside sides of the burger buns with melted butter and brown them in a frying pan.
3. To assemble the burgers, place a cooked beef patty on the bottom half of each toasted bun.
4. Top each patty with 2 slices of bacon, lettuce leaves, tomato slices, onion slices, and pickle slices.
5. Spread ketchup and mustard on the top half of each bun.
6. Place the top bun over the toppings to complete the burger.

Last but not least, here goes a small but mighty tip: season the bacon with BBQ sauce and fry the onions with a little salt beforehand to get delicious caramelized crispy onions. Just like that, the perfect bacon cheeseburger is waiting for you.

It is not necessary to clarify that some crispy french fries belong on the side, right?

Whiskey Bacon Burger: Gourmet Twist on The Classic Dish

If you want to elevate the traditional bacon burger to gourmet status, try the whiskey bacon burger. This special twist on the classic dish introduces a subtle but substantial element: BBQ whiskey. 

To prepare this unbeatable creation, follow the traditional bacon burger recipe, but with a few delicious modifications. Add a splash of whiskey to the BBQ sauce for a smokier flavor and, if you want to step up the game even more, swap out the regular pickles for jalapeño pickles to achieve the ideal spiciness. 

The result? A gourmet masterpiece that combines the best of comfort food with the sophistication of gourmet cooking.

But don’t worry, burger lover but not necessarily cooking lover. If you’re in search of some delicious gourmet burgers in Sugar Hill, you can have all this (and more) without lifting a finger other than to select the order online or reservations option.
