Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 1 large onion
- 1 tablespoon olive oilSauce
- 1/4 cup mayo
- 2 teaspoons prepared horseradish
- Salt & pepper (to taste)
- 1 pound ground beef
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1/3 cup Italian breadcrumbs
- 1 egg
- Salt & pepper (to taste)
- 4-6 slices bacon
- 4 burger buns
- Butter (if toasting buns)
Instruction
- Slice the onion into thin rings. Add to a skillet on medium heat with the olive oil and cook for about 20-25 minutes or until they're nicely browned. Stir them every few minutes so they don't burn.
- Meanwhile, prepare the burger sauce by mixing the mayo, horseradish, and salt & pepper (I just used a spoon and a small bowl). Place in fridge until needed.
- While the onions are cooking, you can fry the bacon in a separate pan until it's crispy (10-15 minutes).
- Pre-heat grill to high heat.
- Prepare the burgers. Using your hands, combine the burger ingredients, taking care not to over-handle them. I am quite generous with the salt and pepper. Form into four patties and make a divot in the middle of the burgers so they cook evenly.
- Turn the grill down to medium-high heat. Place the burgers on the grill and cook for about six minutes (depends on thickness of burgers and the grill/BBQ you're using), then flip and cook for another six minutes or until they're cooked through.
- My preferred method for toasting the insides of hamburger buns is to pre-heat a skillet on medium-high heat (on the stove) and then add the cut and buttered bun halves to the pan until they're toasted (takes a few minutes). You could always use the bacon fat skillet for some extra bacony deliciousness and fewer dishes. You could also toast them on your grill.
- Assemble burgers by adding the sauce, burger patties, bacon, onions, and any other preferred toppings. Enjoy!
