A unique burger that you won’t find at your local burger
joint. With rich depth of flavor, yet still deceptively simple and easy to put
together. There is nothing like it.

Bacon Wrapped Burger |
Ingredients:
For the burgers:
·
1 lb. extra lean ground beef
·
1/4 cup crumbled gorgonzola cheese
·
Pinch each salt and pepper
·
4 slices center cut bacon
For the balsamic
glaze:
·
1/2 cup good quality balsamic vinegar
Preparation:
1.
Begin with the balsamic glaze by pouring
balsamic vinegar into a small sauce pan over high heat. Bring to a boil and
reduce to medium-medium high to simmer. Stir occasionally until sauce has
reached desired thickness. 20-30 minutes
should be all you need. Once desired consistency is reached, remove from heat
immediately.
2.
In a large bowl, gently combine ground beef,
gorgonzola cheese, and salt and pepper until ingredients are just incorporated.
Form into 4 equal-sized patties. Press your thumb down into the center of each
patty to create a small indent. Wrap each burger with a slice of bacon.
3.
Grill over medium heat beginning with the edge
of the bacon side facing down until burgers have reached desired doneness,
about 5 minutes each side. Transfer to buns and add lettuce and tomato. Drizzle
with balsamic glaze.
Happy Cooking ☺
