Bacon Bourbon Burgers

Read Reviews (4)

"In 2011 I attended the 'Chefs of the Coast' cook-off where 4 chefs battled it out cooking their own personal recipe using Four Roses Bourbon®. I thought that I could absolutely make a burger worthy of the Four Roses name and this is it. It's a savory burger that is seasoned to perfection and topped with bacon and other assorted toppings." — Blondeprincess

Directions

Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
Mix ground beef, bourbon, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, steak seasoning, and garlic salt in a bowl; divide and shape into 2 patties.
Cook on the preheated grill for about 5 minutes; turn, top each burger with bacon and Cheddar cheese, and continue cooking until the burgers are cooked to your desired degree of doneness, about 5 minutes more for well done. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Serve on split buns topped with tomato and lettuce.

DELICIOUS! Made exactly as written and would not change a thing. I formed these earlier in the day and put them in the fridge, just to let all the flavors mingle. I also added some onion along w/ the lettuce and tomato. Great flavor...Will be making these again, for sure! Thanks for sharing. :)

These were pretty good, but I was expecting more. I'll make again, but it won't be a regular.

Excellent! I used ground pork instead. It makes sweeter burgers, so I suggest a pepperjack cheese, or some fresh jalapeno for a balancing kick.
