Saturday Splurge: Inside Out Bacon Cheeseburgers



I was really good this week. Really good. I counted calories, I exercised every day. 3 weeks and counting until Spring break. Here's hoping my anti-cellulite cream kicks in! I decided that a splurge was in order. I just had to try these Inside Out Bacon Cheese burgers. With extra sharp white cheddar, my favorite bacon, and green onion mayo, these are a burger lover's dream come true.

I defrosted a package of home-grown beef patties.


Fried up the bacon nice n' crispy.


Cut up 4-6 oz. of sharp white cheddar and mixed it with the crumbled bacon.


I seasoned the beef by mixing a tablespoon of seasoned salt and a tablespoon of worcestershire sauce.


Then brushed it onto both sides of the burger.


I made a little well in the center of each patty and pushed as much bacon and cheese into the patty that I could get the beef to cover. Form the burger around the filling.


My original thought was to throw these burgers on the grill. Unfortunately, it was just plain nasty outside. I heated my griddle over high heat and cooked the burgers on each side for 2 minutes. Then I lowered the heat to medium-low and cooked them for 7-8 minutes longer.


While my burgers cook, I work on the mayo. I actually grilled this bunch of green onions on my griddle before I put the burgers on. Once they were a little browned and tender, I removed them to my cutting board to cool and then chop.


I put a cup of mayo, the chopped, grilled green onions, and a teaspoon of cumin in my food processor.


Blend until combined.


I removed the burgers to a plate and put my buns on to toast.



I slathered the mayo on both sides of the toasty buns and then


Built my burger. I dressed it up with some lettuce, tomato, and sliced onion.


Check em' out! Delicious! My mouth waters at the memory.
