Paul Bunyan Burgers

A couple of years ago, my wife got me a grill cook book for Fathers day or something. We went through it and picked a couple of recipes.  I think this was the first one we tried.  We have it once or twice a year.  They are pretty good, but take a while longer than regular burgers.





Paul Bunyan Burgers
6 bacon strips
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1/3 cup diced onions
1 egg
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp seasoned salt
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 to 1.5 pounds hamburger
2-3 slices cheese

In a skillet, cook bacon til crisp. Remove and drain on paper towels.  When cooled, chop in pieces.  In drippings, saute onion and mushroom.  Drain grease and return bacon to skillet.
In another bowl, mix the egg, Worcestershire sauce, and seasonings.  Add the hamburger and mix well.  Divide into 4 or 6 parts, depending on the size of burger you want.  Place cheese, then bacon mixture on top of one patty, then top with another patty and seal the edges.  Grill over medium-high heat for 5-6 minutes on each side or until a meat thermometer reaches 160 degrees.  Serve on buns.
