Bacon Cheddar Stuffed Burgers
"The original recipe is from the Wisconsin Milk Marketing Board but has been altered some. Other stuffing suggestions are salsa and pepper jack, blue cheese and sauteed red onion, mushroom and swiss (yum!), feta and olives, or smoked provolone and roasted red peppers."

ingredients
- 2 lbs ground beef (I use venison)

directions
- Fry bacon until crisp; crumble.
- Combine beef, salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion and shape into 12 large, thin patties.
- Top six patties with 1 tablespoon bacon and 1 tablespoon cheese (this is approximate-use what looks right).
- Place remaining 6 patties on top of cheese/bacon topped patties and press edges to seal.
- Grill or broil for 3-4 minutes per side until done. We like ours well done.
- The last 2 minutes of cooking top patties with remaining bacon and cheese.
- Serve on buns.

The picture shows a lot of red! Is that a sauce or blood?

These were good. I will make again, my family enjoyed them very much. Next time I will use sliced cheddar instead of shredded so the cheese will ooze out of the burger with each bite. Thank you for sharing this great summertime treat. -
Very good burger. The cheddar and bacon did not over power the burger but gave it enough flavor so you didn't need to add to it. I will be making this again. Thanks for sharing Kaarin! -
Very tasty burger, flavor was good. I too, believe that it would be good to use more of the cheese inside the burger. I used my George Foreman grill for this recipe. I didn't want to stand outside in the hot sun to grill today. Worked out fine and there was no mess to clean. Thanks for sharing this delicious recipe! -
These had a good flavor to them but they needed more cheddar and bacon. I didn't think they had much of a bacon or cheddar taste to them.

I'm a stay at home mom with 3 adorable children-an 8 year old daredevil son, a 5 1/2 year old princess and a wild little 2 year old girl! I love to cook, and like having my little helpers in the kitchen!
I usually love recipes that are completely from scratch (I still love them actually) but right now my focus is on having any kind of food ready by mealtime! It's a little crazy here lately. Every summer we have a huge organic garden, apple orchard and raspberry and blueberry patches, along with a woods full of wild foods waiting for me to learn what they are so I can collect them. I'm learning about wild mushrooms first, so if anyone has any tips, let me know. We also eat wild venison which my husband and I hunt ourselves. It's our favorite meat, since it's lean, organic and cheap! Some of my hobbies are: hiking, biking, rock climbing, gardening, playing in the water with my kids, or just swinging in the hammock with a good book. I go stir crazy if I spend too much time inside.
