Juicy Lucy Bacon Burger

Directions

1. 1

   The trick to making burger magic is having a screaming hot surface to get the perfect sear and crust on your beef. Pre-heat your Blackstone Griddle to medium-high before cooking to get the best crust!

2. 2

   Cook 4 pieces of bacon. Once finished remove from the griddle on drain on a paper towel.

3. 3

   On a separate plate, form 8-10 oz. of ground beef into two thin patties. On the first patty, place a slice of cheddar cheese broken up and a slice of bacon split up. Get the second thinly formed patty and seal the two patties. Salt and pepper both sides.

4. 4

   Remove most of the bacon fat, and cook burger for 3-4 minutes. Flip the patty, add water, and cover with a basting dome. Cook to desired doneness.

5. 5

   Toast buns. Chop up the lettuce and the tomato slices on your cutting board.

6. 6

   Flip the buns and remove from the griddle. To plate, add special sauce, lettuce, burger, tomato slices, and more sauce. Best served while still hot.
