directions

  • In large skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crisp, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from pan and drain on paper towel lined plate.
  • Discard all but about 1 T. of the bacon drippings.
  • Chop 1/4 of an onion finely, then slice the other 1 3/4 onions.
  • Sweat the chopped onion in the reserved bacon drippings for 2-3 minutes. Remove from pan and combine with the bacon.
  • Coat pan with the olive oil and drop in the sliced onions. Let sweat until soft and slightly browned, about 10 minutes. Remove and place in bowl; keep warm.
  • While the onions are sweating, combine the sirloin, Worcestershire, hot sauce, grill seasoning, and the bacon/onion mixture. Form into 4 equal-sized patties.
  • Cook burgers, covered, in skillet, about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare and 6 minutes per side for medium-well.
  • Place a slice of cheese on each burger and cover over low heat to melt the cheese.
  • Stir steak sauce into the cooked sliced onions.
  • Toast the buns if desired.
  • Serve burgers with the smothered onions on a toasted bun.
  • *NOTE* I served these without the buns and enjoyed them that way also. Just topped the burgers with the smothered onions and left the bun out of the equation.

  1. What a waste of money! We didn't like the taste of the smoked bacon and Gouda at all. Not for our taste. Won't be making these again!!!
     
  2. I didn't have steak sauce so I used balsamic vinegar. The Gouda cheese was a good choice for this burger. Nice tasting and not that difficult to make.
     
  3. Very tasty burgers!! Great way to 'hide' the onions from DS. Made as written except used a smoked cheddar since my gouda cheese was in the freezer...Made for 2012 Spring PAC.
     
  4. My husband and I thought these burgers were delicious !!! I used hormel real bacon bits and lots of smoked gouda cheese. It was great !!! Thank you.
     
  5. Very good recipe! These were moist and delicious. Thanks a lot. Donna
