Stuffed Burgers

Ok, I've been hearing about "Inside Out" Burgers.  I don't understand why they're called that, I think it'd be more appropriate to call them "Outside In", or just "Stuffed".  Anyhow, Baby Girl and I decided to make our own version tonight, they turned out really good, maybe even better than a "Five Guys" burger which for some reason I was craving.  Here's how we made them.

Ingredients:
1 lb of ground beef
1 small block of cheese, sliced thinly
4 slices of bacon cooked, drained and broken into pieces
Seasonings (to taste)


Put ground beef in a bowl, season to taste (I used pepper, garlic powder and onion powder), mix well.  Make 8 small patties of equal size.  Top 4 patties with 2 slices of the cheese (overlap them if you have to so they don't hang over the sides of the pattie), then top with broken bacon.  Top these patties with the 4 remaining, sealing edges well.  Cook to desired doneness.

Serves 4

I made some with extra sharp cheddar (DH loves this) and some with swiss (Bubba had requested that).  You can stuff with whatever your heart desires, I'm thinking maybe next time I do swiss adding some mushrooms, maybe just a tad bit of steak sauce in the meat mixture, the options are endless!
