Colby Bacon Hamburgers Recipes

SPICY COWBOY BACON BURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to medium heat. Set out a large bowl. Add the ground beef, diced bacon, grated jalapeños, and Burger Grill Seasoning. Mix by hand until well combined.
• Divide the meat mixture into 8 equal portions. Press each portion into a patty slightly wider than the buns.
• Place the patties on the grill. Cook for 5-6 minutes per side. The insides can be slightly pink in the middle, but not medium-rare because of the bacon. The moment the burgers come off the grill, place a slice of cheese over the top of each patty, so they start to melt.
• Stack the burgers on the buns with lettuce, tomato slices, pickles, barbecue sauce, and fried onions on top. Serve warm.

Mix the mayonnaise, ketchup, mustard and hot sauce in a small bowl.
