Ultimate Bacon Mushroom Swiss Burger Recipe

Ingredients

• 0.5 cup mayonnaise
• 3 tablespoons herbes de Provence
• 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 0.5 pound thick-cut smoked bacon
• 0.5 pound button mushrooms, sliced
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 2 pounds lean ground beef
• 2 teaspoons garlic granules
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 16 slices Swiss cheese
• 8 Ball Park® Hamburger Buns
• Burger trimmings as desired, including lettuce, tomato, onion and pickles

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, herbes de Provence, Worcestershire sauce, and lemon juice until thoroughly combined. Cover and refrigerate the herbed mayonnaise until ready to assemble the burgers.
2. Cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat, flipping occasionally, until crispy. Drain on paper towels, reserving 1 tablespoon of bacon drippings in the skillet.
3. Add mushrooms and soy sauce to the skillet with the bacon drippings; cook over medium heat until mushrooms are browned and softened, about 5 to 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
4. Preheat an outdoor grill to medium heat and lightly oil the grill grate to prevent sticking.
5. In a bowl, combine ground beef, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper; gently form the mixture into patties for grilling.
6. Grill patties on the preheated grill for 3 to 5 minutes per side. During the last 2 minutes of cooking, top each patty with 2 slices of Swiss cheese and cover the grill to allow the cheese to melt. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should register 160 degrees F (65 degrees C).
7. While the burgers are grilling, preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
8. Arrange hamburger buns on the prepared baking sheet. Toast both sides of the buns lightly in the preheated oven until golden brown. Transfer the toasted buns to serving plates.
9. Spread a generous amount of herbed mayonnaise on each bun. Place the cooked burgers on the bottom buns, add your favorite toppings, and finish with the top buns.
