This is her stuffed burger recipe.

Sunny Anderson’s Bacon, Onion and Cheese Stuffed Burger
From the Food Network show Cooking For Real with Sunny Anderson
Courtesy www.turnkeyqualitycars.com

Ingredients
    1 1/2 pounds ground beef
    1 clove garlic, minced
    1 teaspoon hot sauce (recommended: Frank's Red Hot)
    Salt and freshly ground black pepper
    4 strips bacon, diced
    1/2 onion, chopped
    1 cup grated sharp Cheddar
    4 burger buns
    Lettuce, tomato, pickles for garnish

Directions

Preheat grill to medium.

In a bowl combine beef, garlic, hot sauce, salt and pepper, to taste, being careful not to over mix. Warm a skillet over medium heat and fry bacon until crispy. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Keep heat on skillet and fry a pinch of the beef in the bacon fat to test seasoning. Adjust seasoning, if needed, then form 8 even thin patties, about 1/2-inch thick and set aside. Saute onions in bacon fat in skillet until tender, 5 minutes. Place onions and bacon in a bowl with cheese. Form a spoonful of bacon-cheese mixture into a ball, then place in the center of 4 patties. Top each with another patty and seal the edges. Grill burgers over medium-high heat, flipping once until desired doneness is reached, approximately 4 minutes each side for medium. Serve in buns with garnishes. Alternative: In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, sear the burgers 4 minutes on each side.

Little Boy Blue says,
"Trust me, so easy even an 11 month old could make these.


With one hand."

Well, what better way to start this burger than frying up some bacon in the pan.

Sssssiiiizzzllle.

Splat.

Ouch!!!



Cook the bacon until crisp and remove from pan. Leave a few drippings in the pan of course cuz you-is-a-gonna-be sauteeing some onions.


Crumble up the bacon, shred the cheese if not shredded already (I used white cheddar) and remove
the onions to a bowl.

Now mix 'er all up!!!

Don' it look goood!!

Don' you like my improper use of spelling and grammar today?
It's even driving me nuts but I can't stop.

Meanwhile,
throw your garlic and
hot sauce
into the bowl with the ground  beef.


Picture


Season it up real gooooood with salt and pepper.




Picture

Aaaand mush it all up.

With your hands.

Looks like a whole chicken here, doesn't it?





Picture
Now make eight THIN patties out of the ground beef.

Thin people,
thin.

Cuz you-is-a-gonna-be stuffing these and slappin' two burgers on top of each other.


Okay FINE, I'll stop with the annoying grammar!!
I don't know what the matter with me is today. All I wanna do is is put on one of those dumb beer hats, chew some tobaccy and spit it out on sidewalks.






Makes ya wanna come to my house for dinner, doesn't it?



Picture
Anyhooo,


set four thin patties on a plate.




Picture
Dollop the onion, cheese, bacon mixture on top of each patty.




Picture



Now put the other four patties on top....




Picture
Now you have four hamburgers stuffed with that lovely onion, bacon and cheese filling.

OH!!!! Seal the edges of the hamburgers with your fingertips real good.




Okay, now go put these lovelies out on the grill.
But beware, these
DO NOT TAKE LONG TO COOK at all because the patties on the top and bottom are so thin!

I think I was so starved  and it was close to 10pm....

Here's the cooked burger on a plate with some cheat night fries.



These burgers taste fantastic with that filling!! Honestly I couldn't really taste the bacon as much as I wanted to; all the flavors of the caramelized onions, cheese and bacon seemed to meld together but it was fantastico!!!


Picture
And here's a super dark picture of the inside of the stuffed burger.


See that cheesy, oniony, bacony goodness??!!


Oh it was yummy though!!!
Picture

My plate after a couple bites.
Still dark, still looks weird but ya gotta trust me on this one...

Okay, I gotta end with a good looking picture so Ima use this one,
with that ooey-gooey cheese inside the hot sauce, garlic and salt and pepper seasoned burger.... just waiting to be eaten up.

Fortunately I was up to the task :).
