Ingredients
Scale
Beef Patties
- 1½ pounds ground beef
- 1 tablespoon burger seasoning blend
Toppings
- 4-6 tablespoons pub cheese spread
- Beer caramelized onions (prepared separately)
- 8 slices bacon, cooked
Buns
- 4 burger buns (brioche, kaiser rolls, or pretzel rolls recommended; toasted)
Instructions
- Prepare the Beef Patties: Place the ground beef in a bowl and add the burger seasoning blend. Mix thoroughly with your hands until well combined, then form the mixture into 4 even patties.
- Grill the Patties: Preheat your grill, grill pan, or skillet to medium-high heat. Grill the beef patties for 7-10 minutes total, flipping once halfway through, until they reach your desired level of doneness.
- Assemble the Burgers: Remove the patties from the grill and place each on the bottom half of a toasted bun. Top each patty with a generous tablespoon of pub cheese spread, a spoonful of beer-caramelized onions, and 2 slices of cooked bacon.
- Finish and Serve: Place the top half of the bun on each burger. Serve immediately, optionally adding extra toppings or sauces as desired for customized flavor.
Notes
- To prepare beer caramelized onions, slowly cook sliced onions in butter or oil over low heat until soft and golden brown, then add a splash of your favorite beer and cook until the liquid evaporates and the onions are rich and flavorful.
- Cooking times may vary depending on grill temperature and desired doneness; always ensure beef patties are cooked to a safe internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
- For extra flavor, consider toasting buns with butter on the grill or skillet before assembling.
- Use quality burger seasoning blends containing salt, pepper, garlic, and onion powder for best taste.
