Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef (80/20 blend)
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 4 slices cooked bacon
- 2 sesame seed burger buns
- 1/4 cup dill pickles, sliced
- 1/2 cup cheese sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)
How to Make Double Cheeseburger with Bacon
- Preheat your grill or stovetop skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly grease with olive oil to prevent sticking.
- While the grill is heating, divide the ground beef into two equal portions and shape them into patties. Make them slightly larger than the buns, as they will shrink while cooking. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
- Once the grill is hot, place the patties on it. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side until browned, then flip them over.
- After flipping, place two slices of cheddar cheese on each patty. Continue cooking for another 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the patties reach your desired doneness (160°F for medium).
- While the burgers are cooking, heat the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, if not already cooked. Set aside.
- To assemble the burgers, place one patty on the bottom half of each sesame seed bun. Add two slices of crispy bacon on top of the cheese.
- Place the second patty on top, then drizzle with cheese sauce, and add dill pickle slices. Top with the other half of the bun.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious double cheeseburger!
