Garlic Parmesan Bacon Cheeseburger Bombs 🥓🧀
Ingredients 🛒:
1 lb ground beef
4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
4 slices provolone or mozzarella cheese
4 burger buns
2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp garlic powder
Salt and pepper, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, for garnish
Directions 👩🍳:
Prepare the Beef Patties: Season the ground beef with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Form the beef into 4 equal patties.
Cook the Patties: In a large skillet, cook the patties over medium heat for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked to your desired doneness. Top each patty with a slice of cheese in the last minute of cooking, allowing it to melt. Remove from heat and let the patties rest.
Make the Garlic Parmesan Butter: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, and Parmesan cheese.
Assemble the Burger Bombs: Place the cheeseburger patties on the bottom halves of the buns. Sprinkle the crumbled bacon on top of each burger. Brush the tops of the buns with the garlic Parmesan butter mixture.
Bake or Grill (Optional): For a crispier bun, you can place the assembled burgers on a baking sheet and broil for 1-2 minutes until golden brown, or lightly toast the buns on the grill.
Serve: Serve these garlic Parmesan bacon cheeseburger bombs hot, sprinkled with freshly ground black pepper and extra Parmesan if desired. Enjoy with your favorite dipping sauces or a side of fries!
