Bacon Mushroom Burger Recipes

Steps:

• To prepare herbed mayo: In a medium bowl, combine mayonnaise, dried herbs, Worcestershire sauce and lemon juice, mixing well. Cover and refrigerate.
• Cut each strip of bacon in half and cook in a skillet over medium heat until crisp.
• Remove and drain on paper towels. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon bacon drippings from the pan.
• Add mushroom slices and soy sauce to the pan.
• Over medium heat, saute mushrooms until browned and soft, about 5 to 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• To prepare burgers, mix ground beef, garlic granules, and salt and pepper together in a bowl. Form into patties. Place on prepared grill and grill 3 to 5 minutes per each side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 150 degrees F (65 degrees C).
• During last 2 minutes of cooking, top with cheese and cover to melt cheese.
• Meanwhile, heat oven to 400 degrees, arrange hamburger buns on a foil-lined cookie sheet and lightly toast hamburger buns in the oven on each side.
• When toasted, remove buns to serving plates and spread some of the herbed mayonnaise on each bun.
• To serve, put cheese-topped patties on each bun, add desired hamburger trimmings, finish with the top bun and enjoy.

Steps:

• Mix together first 8 ingredients in a bowl.
• Shape mixture into 4 patties.
• Grill over medium-high heat for 10-12 minutes or until done, turning once.
• Just before taking off the grill, place cheese slice on each patty.
• Serve on buns with lettuce, tomato, etc.

Steps:

• Combine onion, bell peppers, and garlic in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until finely chopped but not quite pureed.
• Transfer onion mixture to a saute pan over medium heat; cook until reduced to a moist paste, about 20 minutes. When done, set aside to cool.
• Grate Cheddar and Asiago cheeses into a bowl using the finest teeth of a box grater.
• Place ground beef in a large mixing bowl. Add onion mixture and salt; mix thoroughly by hand until evenly combined. Add grated cheese mixture, a bit at a time, and mix until thoroughly combined. Add panko and mix until evenly distributed. Form into 8 balls and press into patties, using a hamburger maker if you have one. Wrap patties in waxed paper and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, but preferably overnight.
• Remove burgers from the refrigerator. Preheat an outdoor grill for 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and lightly oil the grate.
• While the grill is preheating, cook bacon in a large skillet and over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels.
• Drain all but 1 tablespoon bacon grease from the skillet and add mushrooms. Saute over medium heat until soft, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
• Cook burgers on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center, about 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). During the last few minutes of cooling, add 2 slices bacon and 1 slice American cheese to each burger.
• Remove burgers from the grill. Place on Kaiser rolls and add mushrooms.
