Making a garlic toast bacon cheeseburger is a delicious way to elevate a classic burger. Here’s how you can prepare it:
Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground beef
- 4 hamburger buns
- 4 slices of bacon
- 4 slices of cheese (cheddar, American, or your favorite cheese)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional toppings: lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise
Instructions:
- Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
- Divide the ground beef into four equal portions and shape them into burger patties. Season both sides of the patties with salt and pepper to taste.
- Cook the bacon slices in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and drain on paper towels.
- In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic with the melted butter.
- Cut the hamburger buns in half and brush the cut sides with the garlic butter mixture.
- Place the hamburger buns on the grill, cut side down, and toast them until golden brown and crispy. Remove them from the grill and set aside.
- Place the burger patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheese on top of each burger patty to melt.
- Assemble the burgers by placing a burger patty with melted cheese on the bottom half of each garlic toast bun.
- Top each burger patty with a slice of cooked bacon.
- Add your favorite burger toppings such as lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, ketchup, mustard, or mayonnaise.
- Place the top half of the garlic toast bun on top of the toppings to complete the burger.
- Serve the garlic toast bacon cheeseburgers immediately with your favorite side dishes.
