Maple Bacon Beer Burgers

Serves: 4       

Total Time: 1 Hour**

INGREDIENTS

1 lb. ground beef, you want a mix of 80% lean to 20% fat to keep them from shrinking and being dry

2 tbsp. Better Butter Burger Seasoning

1/4 cup beer, something with a hint of honey or maple is best, but you can use your favorite

2 tbsp. maple syrup

4 tbsp. maple bacon bbq sauce

1 tbsp. freshly ground black pepper

salt to taste

12 slices of honey or maple cured bacon, cooked crisp

4 slices of old sharp cheddar cheese

4 rosemary focaccia buns

4 tbsp. butter

sliced onion and lettuce for serving

DIRECTIONS

Step 1

Preheat the grill to 400°F. Grill the bacon over indirect heat for 15 to 20 minutes, flipping half way, until perfectly crispy.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the beef, better butter burger seasoning, beer, maple syrup, bbq sauce, pepper, salt and crumble 4 of the slices of bacon, adding them to the beef.

Step 3

Mix the ingredients very well and then form into 4 patties. Lay the patties on waxed paper and chill them for 30 minutes. **This is where the extra time comes in for the total time.

Step 4

Preheat your grill again to between 450° and 500°F and grill your patties over direct heat for 4 to 5 minutes per side.

Step 5

Butter the buns and grill them on the warming rack. Top the burgers with cheese in the last minute or two of grilling.

Step 6

Place the burgers on the buns and top with two slices of cheese. Dress them to your heart's content with your favorite condiments, and serve.
