Bacon Cheddar Stuffed Burgers

Ingredients:

• 2 lbs ground beef (I use venison)
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1⁄2 teaspoon pepper
• 1⁄4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1⁄4 cup onion, minced fine
• 9 -10 slices bacon
• 8 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded
• 6 hamburger buns

Directions:

Fry bacon until crisp; crumble.

Combine beef, salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion and shape into 12 large, thin patties.

Top six patties with 1 tablespoon bacon and 1 tablespoon cheese (this is approximate-use what looks right).

Place remaining 6 patties on top of cheese/bacon topped patties and press edges to seal.

Grill or broil for 3-4 minutes per side until done. We like ours well done.

The last 2 minutes of cooking top patties with remaining bacon and cheese.

Serve on buns.
