Pimento Cheeseburger
Report
Our Pimento Cheeseburgers are the perfect way to gussy up your next backyard barbecue. We season all-beef patties simply with salt, pepper and Worcestershire sauce grill them and then generously smother them with homemade pimento cheese, crispy bacon, lettuce and tomato, then sandwich it between at buttery “everything” brioche bun. Simple and so delicious.

Ingredients
- 6 lices Bacon cooked
- 4 brioche bun or whole-wheat bun
- 1 large egg
- 2 tbsp everything bagel seasoning
- 1 1/4 lb ground beef 85/15 or high quality beef blend
- 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt divided
- 1/4 tsp black pepper freshly cracked
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 cup cheddar cheese extra sharp, sometimes reduced fat
- 2 ounces cream cheese light, room temperature
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise light
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup Pimentos diced
- 2 large tomato heirloom
- butter lettuce
Instructions
- Set the ground beef out to come to room temperature for 10-15 minutes. While this happens, preheat the oven to 400 degrees. If you haven't already, cook the bacon and slice the tomatoes. Add buns to a large baking sheet. Add egg to a small bowl. Whisk until scrambled. Use a pastry or grilling brush to coat each bun with the egg wash. Sprinkle with everything seasoning. Bake in the oven for 5-6 minutes until spices are toasted and buns are golden brown, set aside.
- Divide the meat into four even sections. . Gently form each section into a patty but try to work it as little as possible. Use your thumb to gently place a quarter size indention into thee middle of each patty. This will prevent the burger from puffing up in the middle. Season the patties on both sides evenly with 1 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and pepper. Drizzle each side with Worcestershire sauce.
- Heat a grill or grill pan to a medium-high heat. When the grill is hot, add the burgers. Don't move them! Let them cook for 4-5 minutes and then flip. Cook anther 3-4 minutes until desired doneness. We like ours medium, so we check the burgers with a meat thermometer. When the center of the burger is 140-145 degrees, we pull the burgers off the grill. For medium well, you will want to pull them at 150 degrees, well done 160 degrees.
- While the burgers cook, make the pimento cheese. Add the shredded cheese, cream cheese, mayo, garlic powder, onion powder, dijon and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt to the bottom of a food processor. Pulse until combined. Add the pimentos and pulse 2-3 more times until they are also combined, you want them to say relatively whole. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- To assemble: Place a piece of lettuce on each bun followed by 1-2 tomatoes. Top with a burger patty. Spoon the pimento cheese on top and then cover with 1 1/2 pieces of bacon. Place the top bun on and enjoy! (Grab a napkin, these are messy!)
