All-In-One Bacon Cheeseburgers


All-In-One Bacon Cheeseburgers

Makes 3 burgers.

Yum - A delicious burger! I know it's easy to skimp on recipes when you're pressed for time or just feeling lazy, but don't pass on the scallion mayo. It adds wonderful flavor and offers something different than the average burger.
Adapted From: Classic Rachael Ray 30-Minute Meals


3/4 lb. ground beef
2 slices bacon, cooked and chopped
2 t. Worcestershire sauce
2 t. steak seasoning blend
1 c. shredded cheddar cheese
2 scallions, cleaned and trimmed
1/4 c. mayo
1/4 t. ground cumin
salt and pepper, to taste
3 hamburger buns, split
3 leaves crisp lettuce
onion, tomato, and other toppings, if desired


Combine ground beef, bacon, 1 chopped scallion, Worcestershire sauce, steak seasoning, and cheese. Mix well. Divide into 3 equal parts and form into burgers.

Make scallion mayonnaise: Brush other scallion with extra virgin olive oil and grill for 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove from heat to cool.

Chopped cooled, grilled scallion and place in food processor. Add mayo and cumin; pulse grind to combine. Season with salt and pepper.

Drizzle burgers with extra virgin olive oil and place on a hot grill pan. Cook 2 minutes on each side over high heat; reduce heat to medium-high and cook burger 7-8 minutes longer, turning occasionally. Transfer to a plate and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
