This recipe for Mom's legendary stuffed hamburgers yields enormous, stick-to-your-ribs burgers with a surprise in the center—a real family favorite. I like to serve them on a bun topped with sautéed mushrooms and Swiss cheese. Use extra lean or lean ground beef instead of medium because the bacon adds to the fat content of the meat.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 4 strips bacon, chopped

  • 1 small onion, chopped

  • freshly ground black pepper to taste

  • 2 pounds lean ground beef

  • 1 (1 ounce) envelope dry onion soup mix

  • 4 hamburger buns

Directions

  1. Prepare an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.

  2. Cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes. Add onion to the skillet; cook and stir until bacon is browned but not crisp and onion is soft. Transfer bacon and onion to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Season with black pepper.

  3. Combine ground beef and onion soup mix in a large bowl; divide into 8 balls, then flatten into thin patties. Place 1/4 each bacon mixture on 4 patties; top each with 1 remaining patty. Press edges together to seal patties.

  4. Cook on the preheated grill until well done, flipping once, about 15 minutes. Serve on buns.
