INGREDIENTS:
- 1 pound ground beef (this is one time you don't want the extra lean)
- 1 1/2 tsp sweet paprika
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1 TBS Worcestershire Sauce
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 4 slices of streaky bacon, cut in half crosswise, grilled and kept warm
- 60g grated strong cheddar cheese (1/2 cup)
- 60g grated gruyere cheese (1/2 cup)
To serve:
- Toasted buns
- lettuce
- sliced tomato
- grilled onions
- mustard, pickles, ketchup as desired
- Mix the beef, paprika, garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce and black pepper together in a bowl until well combined. Mix together both cheeses. Set aside. Divide the beef into four equal portions. Flatten each into a large oval, about 1/4 inch in thickness. Place one fourth of the cheese onto the centre of one half of each oval. Fold the other half over top and press the edges to seal. I kind of try to shape it into a bit of a circle here if I can.
- Heat a grill or grill pan. Spray lightly with cooking spray. Grill/fry the burgers for about 4 minutes per side over medium high heat, for medium well done. Don't be tempted to press down on the burgers as you will risk the cheese breaking out. Let stand for five minutes before placing onto toasted buns. Top each with two half slices of bacon and any other toppings, etc. you desire.
