ingredients
- 2 lbs ground beef (not the lean kind, it needs some fat to stay moist)
- 5 scallions, sliced thinly
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
- Tabasco sauce
- salt and pepper
- 8 slices cooked bacon, strips diced
- cheddar cheese, grated
- tomatoes, sliced thickly (optional)
- arugula (optional)
- avocado (optional)
- mayonnaise (optional)
- 6 hamburger buns
directions
- I actually made a spicy mayo for this burger mixing mayonnaise with cayenne pepper, paprika, black pepper, and just a little Tabasco. I didn't include it in the recipe, but am listing it here for those who would like to try it as well.
- In a mixing bowl, mix the ground beef, scallions, cayenne pepper, salt, pepper, Tabasco sauce (as much as you like) and then shape into 12 thin patties.
- On top of 6 patties, mound up the bacon, then the cheese. Top with other patties and seam together at edges, just pressing with fingertips.
- Grill or pan fry burger (whatever you prefer)until desired doneness.
- Spread the mayo on the bottom bun and place a patty. Top with whatever you'd like and enjoy.

PAC Fall 2007 ~ These were really tasty with a nice little kick from the spices. I mashed up the avocado and mixed it into meat. Didn't serve with the buns because I was too lazy to go to the store! We thought they were a moist burger, even without any dressing. Served with roasted potatoes and leftover cauliflower cheese. Thanks Brisket!
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
<p>I don't really like answering about me sections, but here goes nothing.....I live in Chicago, IL. Went to culinary school. Used to work in a french restaurant in Downtown Chicago as a pastry chef but now I am a stay at home mom. I went to school for cuisine, not pastry, and actually I am much better at cuisine, however I've always wanted to study more pastry. I am not bad at it, I'm actually very good (tooting my own horn), but everyone says I have a natural talent for cuisine. Either way, I love cooking because it is my meditative time. However, when I cook at home, no one dares to walk into the kitchen because I am very bossy and they would rather not deal with me....heehee! <br />I also love to craft, read, and write. I write a lot. Been working on short stories lately, but I've always been more of a poem freak. I love to read....I have a massive collection of books....every type of book. They are mostly cook books and poetry collections, but I also love history, religion, drama, suspense, romance (not the cheesy kind, my favorite book of all time is love in the time of cholera by gabriel garcia marquez, I have yet to see the movie), mystery, murder mystery (second favorite book is and then there were none by agatha christie). <br />And my rambling continues....I come from a small family, I suppose, 1 brother 1 sister and my parents. My brother is married with 3 kiddies, my sister is a single mom of 1. I am engaged to the love of my life. To clarify, engaged is in parentheses because we cannot legally get married yet. I am a lesbian and I am very hopeful to the legalization of gay marriage because I would marry my girlfriend in a heartbeat. We have a 5 year old son, Joel,and a daughter from her previous relationship, Ashley, 12. I will post some pictures on here as soon as I have some time. Enough rambling....thanks for reading, if you actually stayed awake through the whole thing. <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg border=0 alt=Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket /> <br /><a href=http://www.recipezaar.com/cookbook.php?bookid=148021 target=_blank><img src=http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/RSC%20Banners/RSC10-NoPhoto-Participant.jpg alt= /></a></p>
