Instruction

  • Prepare balsamic mayo: mix together all ingredients in a small mixing bowl and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Fry the bacon until crisp but not crumbly. Reserve 2 tablespoons of bacon fat.
  • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  • In a large bowl, combine the reserved bacon fat, ground chicken, bacon, Six Cheese Italian cheese, and lemon pepper. Form into 6 patties the size of your buns.
  • Grill the burgers, turning once, for about 10 minutes until the center of the burgers is 165 degrees. Just before the burgers are done, toast the buns on the grill or under the broiler.
  • Turn off the grill and top each burger with slices of Mozzarella cheese. When cheese is melted, remove from the grill.
  • Place a lettuce leaf on each bun bottom, top with a burger, a slice of tomato, additional salt and pepper if desired, and basil. Spread balsamic mayo on the top half of the bun and place on top of tomato.
