Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef I use 85%
- 8 lices of uncured bacon
- 4 lices cheddar cheese each cut into 4 pieces
- 16 dill pickle hamburger ship slices
- 8 cherry tomatoes, cut in half
- ½ cup butter lettuce or lettuce of your choice
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon garlic salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground pepper
- Optional Thousand Island dressing
Instructions
- Cook the bacon and tear into small pieces, then set aside.
- Add all the burger ingredients to a bowl, along with the ground beef and mix. Form 16 small burgers and fry them in a large skillet over medium heat (or grill them if you're able).
- Add the cheese over the tops, turn the heat off and place a lid over the top. The steam will melt the cheese nicely, and it should only take a few minutes.
- To assemble, take a burger, top with some of the bacon, lettuce, a slice of pickle and a tomato, then secure in place with a toothpick or skewer.
- You can serve them with Thousand Island Dressing on just under the tomato. Or you can serve it on the side as a dip instead.
