Bacon Cheeseburgers

1. Fry bacon until crispy.

2. Mix together beef, cheese, and garlic powder in a bowl.

3. Crumble bacon into the beef mixture and mix.

4. Divide beef into 4 equal patties. (I usually do this by pressing the beef into the bowl, so the top is flat. Then I “score” the meat by pressing the side of my hand into it. I divide the meat into quarters. Then it’s easy to scoop up and form equal patties instead of taking meat from smaller balls to make larger ones and so on!)

Another trick when making burger patties is to make an indentation in the center of the patty with your thumb. This will keep the burgers from shrinking up when you cook them.

5. Cook patties in a frying pan until they reach your desired doneness.

6. Place on the buns and top with desired toppings!
