Deluxe Bacon Burgers image

I CREATED this recipe and won a red ribbon for it in a 1976 cookbook contest. It's like meat loaf in a bun, so it's very hearty. Sometimes I'll serve it with gravy and without the bun. When I prepared this for dinner, I always felt my family was well fed. -Bernadine Dirmeyer, Harpster, Ohio

Overall, I thought these burgers were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

I had some trouble getting the burgers to cook evenly. Some of them were overcooked and some were undercooked.

I wasn't sure how the bacon would taste on the burgers, but it was actually really good. It added a nice crispy texture.

The burgers were easy to make and turned out great. I used sharp cheddar cheese and it really took the flavor over the top.

These burgers were absolutely delicious! The bacon added a nice smoky flavor, and the cheese was melted to perfection. I will definitely be making these again.
